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.

I don't think he looked away from the computer screen once while we were in the exam room. He went through all the proper motions, then left without helping my condition one bit. Very disappointing.

Dr. Scerpella was very thorough in his examination of my issue and seemed very knowledgeable about my concerns. I feel completely trusting with his skill. I am glad I chose him to help me with this procedure.

Excellent, very competent foot surgeon. His disposition lacks luster; however once you get to know him you'll find that he is a very caring, compassionate doctor that listens to his patients, and is very knowledgeable and skilled in what he does.

Dr Scerpella did my ankle replacement. 30 years of arthritic pain is now gone. He is careful, meticulous and highly knowledgeable, exactly the qualities I wanted in a surgeon. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
