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.

Finally someone who listens.
My PCP just told me to deal with menopause. I was tired of suffering. So glad I saw Dr Attanucci!!

I have been going to Dr. Attanucci for about 4 years now. I would highly recommend her, she always takes time to listen to all of your concerns and always goes beyond to help. I wouldn't even pay attention to any of those negative ratings because she is an amazing physician. I hope that I can stay as her patient for many years to come. I am a woman of color and it is always hard for me to find a physician to take my health problems seriously. She listened to my concerns and was the only physician to help me. I am telling you she is worth it.

Always spends the time with me when I have questions and fully explains everything. I felt so much support from her throughout my entire pregnancy and beyond.

Dr. Attanucci was by far one of the most caring physicians I have ever seen. She never made me feel rushed or I was inconveniencing her like some other physicians I have seen at different practices. I would and have in fact recommended her to many of my friends and family.

Very Professional, competent, and explains what's going on FULLY. Dr. A relates to you as a person, and answers questions completely. I'm a new patient (my doc retired) and I was taken care of quickly and thoroughly.

She's not the worst but definitely not warm and fuzzy. Bed-side manner was non-existent...never even knocks before entering the exam room. Not super helpful answering questions. Was not supportive of my vbac and I felt bullied by her and her colleagues out of trying. I wouldn't recommend her to anyone.
