Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I would recommend Dr. Vivacqua to my friends and family. He replaced my aortic valve. He is a no nonsense skilled surgeon. He explained the surgery and answered all of my questions.

Dr. Vivacqua saved my life. I had a large aneurysm that he fixed. I'm so grateful to him and his team for taking such good care of me. When I met him in the office before surgery, he explained everything in straightforward terms and reassured me with his confidence. These surgeries are very difficult and I was blessed to find such an excellent doctor.

after suffering a ruptured aortic aneurysm, Dr. Vivacqua and his team simply saved my life. Their ability to stay calm and degree of professionalism allowed me to mentally prepare for the emergency surgery. Not a single day passes without reflecting on the incredible care I received. I'm alive because of this team.

This Dr did open heart surgery on my husband. Surgery went well but the after care resulted in his death from sepsis. 300,000 people a year die from sepsis and no one was checking for it!!!!!
