Ratings & Comments

At URMC, we believe that patients should be empowered to make the right decisions regarding their personal healthcare. To do so, transparency is critical. URMC partners with Press Ganey, to survey our patients about all aspects of their care experience. We are now putting this pertinent information at your fingertips by displaying star ratings for our providers along with anonymous patient comments on our website. This will help you make better-informed choices about how and with whom you seek care. Click here to learn more about the surveys used to generate this vital information.

Dr. German is a wonderful, caring, thorough Doctor! He listens patiently to your concerns and doesn't make you feel rushed. After having Dr. Kerper for 35+ years having to switch was daunting. Dr. German is equally caring and bright and has made the transition more than manageable.

I have the utmost confidence in my physician, Dr. German. I never feel rushed. You listened to my "version" of ailments and works with me to create a plan and explore options. Very impressive

I am so grateful for the time he took with me to explain the medication prescribed, the possible side effects, and any concerns I had. I was in significant pain and am so appreciative for the care I received.

Dr. German is a gem! He prescribed no medication for my symptoms with the most reasonable explanations and empathy. I trust his judgment and I feel better!
