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.

Dr. Gerbino "repaired" my meniscus, but after 21 months, I was still in terrible pain and can barely walk or bend my knee even with constant physical therapy. I came back to his office about a year post-op complaining of pain/lack of mobility/swelling and he was really rude and told me I was knock-kneed and would have issues for the rest of my life. Recommended a very invasive surgery essentially cutting my thigh bone. He didn't do another MRI or X-ray to check if there were any issues, and just gave me a Hyaluronic acid shot, which exacerbated my pain and mobility. I ended up needing a 2nd knee surgery and 50% of my meniscus was taken out due to his previous surgery. I would not recommend him at all. I've been contemplating reporting him to the board. I would avoid going to Dr. Gerbino at all costs.

My wife broke her upper right arm, x-rays showed top of humerus shattered. X-ray review by doctor, told her to wear a sling. One week later said no sling necessary although two weeks after that no improvement. Went to Dr. Kasim Who said she would’ve operated immediately. Five days after that and over six weeks since seeing Gerbino She’s in recovery from Reverse total shoulder replacement. Estimated severe pain time three days. I couldn’t give zero stars
