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.

Great doctor!

I had a complex meniscus tear in my knee. He operated to repair it and I walked out of the hospital. No pain or problems. Entire staff is friendly and professional

Wasted my time
Disappointing. Rushed consult. Spent maybe 5 minutes with me. Didn't appear interested in my attempt to briefly apprise him of my history, issues, or other physician reports, rather stated he sees a patient a week with my problem as if that justified his dismissing me. I insisted he needed to see where the pain was located as I stood up and physically pointed out the areas. Asked me a few questions thereafter, then did 2 leg flexes. He interprets his own x-rays, cared less about others I had done. Made to feel I wasn't supposed to ask questions when I tried. Came up with an assumptive opinion, stated may have other issues involved but wanted me to have an injection to see if it works and take it from there attitude. Then simply walked out of the room while I was asking for clarification. Onto next patient. I left totally disillusioned, never to return. Wasted half my day with no definite diagnosis. He was my 2nd opinion specialist and now I have 2 differing opinions. Onto a 3rd.

I can't say enough good things about this young man. Dr. Jerry (as my mom calls him) performed a reverse shoulder replacement on my mom. She had very little pain and impressively hardly any scar. The Doctor and his staff were patient and kind when dealing with my mom's hearing handicap. If a surgery can be a pleasant experience, this qualified.

Dr. Ambrosia set my broken ankle (both bones broken) and was excellent! There is not enough stars to rate him. He and his staff could not have been nicer or more informing on my condition. EXCELLENT!!
