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.

Best Doctor I’ve had
The first time I met Dr. Gargano he told me “you have trauma. You’re dealing with trauma” and was the first person to talk to me about PTSD. He listened and he cared. I don’t trust doctors but I trusted him. I was sad to have him retire.

He's helping me recover from bottom teeth extraction and the pain and infection that followed. He has been absolutely wonderful and very involved in my total recovery.

Dr. Gargano has been my primary for about 15 years. I have absolute trust in him to deal with anything from a skin rash to a blocked artery. He’s honest, thorough and perceptive.
