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.

Superb Surgeon, Nice Guy
Dr. Robinson performed hyperparathyroid surgery on me. He planned meticulously, communicated everything thoroughly and corrected a debilitating condition that could have killed me.He's also a very nice, down-to-earth guy.

I was treated by Dr. Robinson for a lobectomy at Albany Medical Center. At first, I was very nervous about the procedure, but the first time I met him he immediately put me at ease and constantly reassured me about the operation. He conveyed a great deal of confidence and competence and made a sound diagnosis for me. The operation went exactly how it was described to me, I highly recommend him as a surgeon. I cannot thank him enough for the service he provided me. God Bless him Salvatore Vona

I have had two partial thyroidectomy surgeries with Dr. Robinson. The first one was due to papillary cancer, and he surgically removed the left side of the thyroid in 1999. It was encapsulated, so I didn't have to have the entire thyroid removed at that time. My body compensated with half a thyroid, so I didn't need medication at that time. I had no pain, and went to work a few days later! But he told me that I had to come to his office yearly so he could monitor the remaining half to prevent t
