    Dr. Harry Schrager was extremely knowledgeable, thorough. He listened well and was very clear in his instructions. He was very thoughtful and considered the other medications I was on to determine whether there would be any interaction with any other medications. He did a thorough evaluation of my history to think if there might be any negative reactions to the medications he was giving me, so he gets a 10.

    Dr. Schrager is great! My husband and I make an appointment with him whenever we are preparing to travel to a part of the world where we anticipate facing conditions with which we are unaccustomed. Dr. Schrager explains to us what diseases/ risks are prevalent where we'll be working/staying, and tells us what medications and precautions we should take to maintain our health and safety. We learn a great deal from our appointments with him.
