Melissa Cooper Fischer

Couldn’t speak more highly of Dr Fischer! Very empathetic, extremely knowledgeable and spent several extra minutes explaining my issues and describing in detail what was needed surgically. Two days now post-op and I am completely satisfied that my quality of life has been exponentially improved! Great doctor; great office staff. My primary care physician also said Dr. Fischer was “the best”!

This was a 1st time visit to Dr. Fischer. I went with a bit of apprehension after reading several reviews on this physician. I had to add my review. The staff and doctor were kind and professional. Dr. Fischer was caring and empathetic with great bedside manner. I was seen right at my appointment time, everyone I came in contact with was kind and helpful.

I saw Dr. Fischer in March of 2022. I had a wonderful experience with her pre-surgery, surgery and post-surgery. I highly recommend her.

Dr. Fischer tackled my issue head on with a series of tests and lab work and came up with a regime that has solved my issue entirely. She is very professional but has great bedside manor and I’m so appreciative of her help!

My visit with Dr. Fischer was pleasant, nothing like some of the reviews that I have read. I know people generally leave reviews when they are upset about something, so I wanted to take the time to leave a positive review.

Caring and professional care

Dr Fischer is the best, saw her in ER for kidney stones and she has taken amazing care of me since.

Had a wonderful experience with Dr. Fischer today! She was kind, caring, and very helpful in explaining my condition and CT scan from the hospital. I would recommend her.

Dr. Fischer took the time to listen to me, and by listening carefully to my symptoms, she was able to validate what was causing them. In this case, it was nothing serious, but I appreciate the time she spent.

Dr. Fischer is a great doctor and she is very nice and make you feel at ease and very is Profesional! The staff are very nice and make you feel welcome and comfortable ????

I saw Dr. Fischer twice and both experiences were great. I feel as though she took her time in explaining things and she was compassionate. I will continue to see her and I will recommend her to anyone that needs to see a urologist.

I would like to give Dr. Fisher more than five stars. She is thorough, tops in her field and kind. She is focused on me, giving me the option to choose which treatment is right for me. A great physician!!

I was admitted to the hospital with kidney stones and was visited by dr.fischer. I had no previous experiences with her so I decided to ask her a few questions regarding my diagnosis and the procedure they wanted to perform. She never entered the room and during the 2 minute conversation she suddenly turned around and left without answering my questions. The medical procedure was done the next day by another Doctor who had no problem entering my room to stand by my bedside and answer ALL my questions.

I was referred for a condition. She said she had never heard of any such thing. A med student had to look it up online. Upon follow up in a couple of months, she still hadn’t updated her knowledge. Other problems: rude, dismissive, does not answer questions or counsel. Please read discharge notes as it lists visit details never delivered.

I would recommend Dr Fischer to my family and friends. She’s performed two surgeries on me and explained everything to me beforehand.

Do not see her. I had 2 surgeries. My first one was a mesh sling and it eroded through my vaginal wall before my 1 year. She said she had to remove it and put in another. I was always in pain and she just said everything is fine even though I told her about my burning and each year she said I was fine. I thought I better get another. She promised this time you will be better. Finally after crying and much pain and almost 6 years since my first surgery she said I needed a 3rd surgery . She hurt me during the exam (Caused bleeding with no apologies.) and left the room and did not come back. I waited 30 minutes for her to come back in. I was bleeding and she did not even tell me. I got up to put on my close and find her. She came back and she thought she told me she was done. No explanation of what went wrong with my surgery. I found another doctor to remove the implant, urogynecologist, and all my burning stopped and I am feeling better. Wearing a pad again. ANGRY,let down by doctor.

What a heartless doctor. My aged mother went under her care as she was suffering UTIs and was in her late 70s. My mom had been prescribed a daily antibiotic for UTIs by someone in her past. When the pharmacy told us it was dangerous, we consulted with Fischer and she said "I didn't prescribe it!". But it was listed under my mom's prescriptions and Fischer's office knew about it! So why didn't she address it?? Then my mother had kidney stones. My mom went into surgery to remove them and went into severe shock from an infection and spent 2 weeks in the ICU. My mom was never given an antibiotic prior to surgery. We found a new urologist but somehow without our permission, she consulted on my mother when she finally died at RO Beaumont. Suggesting antibiotics that killed my mother. When removing a stent that was placed to remove the kidney stones, she pulled it out of my mother's vagina and said "you have a brother!" She's a VILE person. She would walk out of a room.

I liked this doctor for a fair amount of time. The last time I saw her, after 5 minutes or so, I tried to ask her a question and she interrupted me with some statement that had nothing to do with the question I was trying to ask. Then she stood up and said “Goodbye”. Probably her boss told her to spend less time with patients or something like that. I liked this doctor for a fair amount of time.

She was so helpful, told me about my options, let me make my own decisions. I also appreciated her kindness during a tough moment.

She's the worst. Avoid if you don't want to be in constant pain and be told what a fool you are.

This doctor shouldn’t practice anymore. The reason people are seeing a specialist in the first place is because they have a condition they need help with or to treat. You wait over a month for a appointment and hours in the waiting room to be seen for less then 5 minutes. She doesn’t listen to your health concerns and dashes out of the room saying to follow up in a month. It took 6 visits equivalent to 6 months for her to do what a doctor at u of m did in one visit. Complete scam of peoples insurance and hard earned money. This doctor is only in it to make money not to make patients feel better. She leaves us hopeless and helpless. U of M drs are the best in Michigan. This doctor shouldn’t practice anymore.

Do not let your older parents go to this “doctor.” The problems my mother has faced for nearly two years were never resolved. Fischer milked the insurance system, finagled our mother into “emergency surgery” (which failed) without consenting either of my mother’s patient care advocates. The worst part is the incredible lack of empathy and the worst bedside manor I have ever witnessed from a doctor - e.g. argumentative, defensive, poor listening skills, interrupting my mother, inaccessible (usually my sister and cousin, patient advocates could only talk to physician assistants and never Fischer directly). Even my mother’s internist raised questions about the need and success of her treatments. We finally convinced my mom to move on to a new urologust and she is relieved and much happier.

I have seen Dr. Fischer twice in preparation for surgery. She was thorough, provided options to solve my problem, ordered an ultrasound to determine exactly what would be required, gave me information regarding my specific issues and what she will do to to address them. So far, she has been a sensitive professional.

Worst doctor in the world. Only interested in making money and dashing out the door in less then 5 minutes while your talking. I recommend no one waste there time here and as for the hospital she is a bad representation to your health system. Awful human being.

If you want to be treated like a piece of ------, I will be more than happy to recommend her, she will never listen to your case, the whole time she spent with my wife was about 5 minutes, my wife had a severe UTI and she is under antibiotic, Dr.Fischer advised my wife to stop her medication without even test her urine, and she ended up telling my wife that she had no infection, all that diagnoses come to our end without any testing, she literally spent 5 minutes, and she was so arrogant and disrespectful, such a non-humanitarian behavior.

I've been a patient of Dr. Fischer since 2004, and have consistently found her guidence and performance exemplary.

I had been suffering with an undiagnosed bladder/testicle pain for about 7 weeks. A couple of other medical professionals were not able to diagnose my condition. Within about 5 minutes, Dr. Fischer properly diagnosed my condition as a kidney stone. CT Scan subsequently confirmed that I had a 6 mm kidney stone in my right ureter. I was scheduled for surgery, and Dr. Fischer removed the stone for me. I'm pain free now! Highly recommended!! I had been suffering with an undiagnosed bladder/testicle pain for about 7 weeks.

Dr. Fischer is a good surgeon, she did my Mom's bladder cancer surgery and everything went very well. Lately she lacks empathy and her communication skills are very poor. She brought a person (possibly a fellow) in the exam room with my Mom recently, never introduced her and allowed her to start the procedure which she did very painfully. When she told them how much it hurt Dr. Fischer didn't even apologize and since this procedure my Mom has had nothing but problems! We will never be returning.

Waiting time was less than 10 minutes, staff was friendly and helpful, and Dr. Fischer was friendly, professional and caring. I would definately recommend her to my family and friends. I had to call in for a prescription, and it was handled promptly.

Dr. Fischer has a gentle touch and used to explain everything. Lately, I have found her more distant and willing to hand over my office visit to a Fellow from Oakland University where Dr. Fischer teaches. My concern is that she would schedule procedures just to give the Fellow experience. My last visit, without asking for my permission, Dr. Fisher had the Fellow do the examination. I knew nothing about this person and I lost trust in Dr. Fischer. I filed a complaint with my insurance company.

My mother was admitted to the ER with two large kidney stones. Dr. Fischer is (or was) my mom's urologist. We got ahold of Dr. Fischer & she's spoke with my mom. She was very rude saying things like, "I'm 45 minutes behind schedule because I had to call you". What kind of patient care is that? Then she's cancelled my mother's surgery to get them taken out because she didn't want to deal with her. Horrible Dr. & bedside manner. I wouldn't recommend her if she wasn't the last Dr. on Earth!

Very thorough and to the point. Explains things well!

The experience I had with her made me rule out EVER returning. She left the room when I still had questions. It's not as if you know the appt has ended, but she is avoiding more conversation. The kicker: She called in my prescription. Didn't know she'd done it. Wanted to change the location. She got loud, "That's why I asked you!" Seriously? I am a paying patent. The staff seemed uncomfortable w/ her speaking to me that way too. Very poor experience. She needs more empathy and humility. SAD.

I was very impressed with Dr. Fischer's professionalism, courteousness and ability/willingness to listen. She answered all of my questions and suggested an alternative diagnosis for my urology issue. She quickly wrote orders for additional tests and was available for a follow-up appointment the following week. Her staff is also very courteous and helpful. Top marks all around.

I went to her as a new patient and came the requested 20 minutes prior to my appt. I ended up waiting over an hour past my appt. time. I understand things happen, but this was my first impression of Dr. Fischer and I was not happy. If she does not take the time to schedule herself effectively, how can I entrust her with my care? I was not told she was running late, or offered an apology. I did not end up seeing Dr. Fischer and I will be seeking care from a more considerate urologist.

I don't have enough nice things to say about Dr. Fischer and her staff, I would highly recommend her.

Missed an ultra sound appt last year. New follow up for back to back UTIs. When asked about it on new appt day I apologized and explained about anxiety. She mentioned it 3-4 times in a row. It wasn't personal. Took two phone calls during my appt. Regardless of severity, this was a follow up. Don't miss an appt, you will feel unwelcome and like you are wasting her time when you show up, might as well not have shown up at all. Only plus is I got preventatives I needed, could get those elsewhere.

The staff at the Beaumont-Royal Oak office was very cordial and professional in making my first visit to their office as pleasant as possible. My privacy was an upmost concern. Dr. Fischer was on-time and very nice. She took the time to get to know my history and what medical condition brought me to her office. She was very gentle in her examination process. She gave me her analysis of my situation and options for going forward. I visit many medical offices and her's was top-notch. Recommended.
