I was a patient in his office for over twenty years and I couldn’t have asked for better care than I got from him and his staff. I would highly recommend him.

No delay - got the X-ray, diagnosed the problem, offered a course of treatment and advise for exercise going forward. Cordial, courteous, professional - everything you want in your physician

I have been seeing Dr. Wertheim for years. He is a compassionate doctor that relates to his patients and explains things in an understandable way. His support staff is fantastic. He is always on time. The facilities are immaculate. Couldn't recommend more highly.

Dr. Wertheim and his nurse assistant was very caring and concerned. After the first medicine was not effective he had me come back in right away. He administered a different medication. I can now walk again.
