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.

Was very late to the appt and didn’t even spend 10 minutes with me and only offered rhizotomy in which he stated comes with many risks including quitting breathing. Why would I want to have a procedure like that? His documentation is false and totally subjective.

Dr. Morelli took a significant amount of time to understand my concerns, to show me and explain to me my MRI and CT Scan, to explain my options and to answer my questions. We talked through my medical history with this issue and came up with a plan that was satisfactory to us both. He was polite and respectful to my second opinion from another doctor and was completely willing to work with their theories. He was very thorough, respectful and pleasant.

Explained my condition and treatment very well and took time with me. I had a cervical cortisone injection that went very well.

I have not idea how this guy passed to become a Dr. He was absolutely horrible, worst Dr. visit I have ever had. No bedside manner. I am filing a grievance with Mary Free Bed. He was 30 minutes late for the appointment. Saw me for 10 minutes, didn't test one single thing and then billed my insurance $1200 for 2 hours?!? After I asked him numerous times he finally ordered a MRI. Honestly I don't want this man ever touching me or my medical records, so I will find a different Dr. to order a MRI. I don't care if I have to pay for another consult. He did not ask me any relevant questions, do I get headaches, do I have numbness. He kept asking me why I was there, umm because my primary referred me and apparently she thought I should see a specialist. I waited 8 months due to Covid to see this awful man.

Had a 8:30 appointment and Morelli did not enter the exam room until until 9:02am. Did not apologize. Very disrespectful of my time. He knew I had a 9:15am therapy appointment. There were things I wanted to accomplish during this appointment, but clearly, that was not possible. When patients are in pain you should spend enough time with them to be able to do something about it. This doctor does not respect me or want to do the right thing by me.

I have severe scoliosis and have been experiencing terrible pain for the past 4 months. I finally got a referral from my PCP because physical therapy was not helping. Dr. Morelli came in the room, tested my nerve endings, looked at my curve for 15 seconds, then said to keep an eye on it and left the room. I have a 50 degree curve in 2 parts of my spine and want to get it corrected. Thankfully, my dad went with me and pressed him enough to get me an MRI. His lack of concern was troubling.
