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.

Highly recommended
Excellent experience with the doctor. He repaired my husband’s double hernia while we were still wearing masks due to Covid. He was the only doctor that came into the waiting room to inform me that all went well. All the other people in the waiting room received a phone call! Highly recommended…ty

Dr. Bakosi repaired my umbilical hernia only a few months before my current pregnancy. Now, at 7 months pregnant, I am happy to say the repair was done perfectly. I have minimal to no pain in the area unlike my first pregnancy which was so painful due to the hernia. Before the surgery I wasn’t sure I was making the right decision but now I know I did. His bedside manner and professionalism are also second to none.

Dr. Bakosi operated on me in January on an emergency basis. I had a strangled intestine, 3 large hernias, several small hernias and a ton of scar tissue. He took care of all of it and gave me an abdominal mesh. He was wonderful, knowledgeable, explained everything , answered questions and allayed my fears. He visited often and reviewed my lab results. He was on top of every detail. I healed completely . He was kind, courteous, and I felt I was in good hands!

Dr Bakosi is the best surgeon in northern NJ. I had emergency surgery to remove my appendix. Once I was diagnosed that I had appendicitis, Dr Bakosi arrived and explained the entire process to me. He was informative and compassionate. My surgery went as planned and he left me with minimal scars. I am fortunate to have had such a wonderful doctor operate on me. God bless you Dr Bakosi.

This doctor was amazing. He removed a cyst that was more developed than anticipated. His ability to adjust the details of the procedure during the removal of the large mass is noted. His proficiency and attention to the operation was highly effective. I would return to him in the future without hesitation. Thank you so much.

9 months pregnant and I have a large piece of plastic sticking out of my stomach. Dr. Bakosi who did a butcher job on my "small, minor, grape size" hernia, that he reassured was not going to be a problem at all. Now I more of a problem than the original hernia. Choosing not to use mesh, I was not aware of the large, hard, plastic sutures he used. He never told me that there was a chance my body would reject them & they would have to be removed. I called the office several times to complain
