Healthgrades patient review regarding Dr. Mark Schmidt

"This doctor is always in a hurry, tells sexual jokes in his office, does not care as much as he should about patients and their families. He is very poor at diagnosing cancer. He takes people for granted and is not prepared when the patient comes in. He does not follow up good and is, in my opinion, an obnoxious quack."
