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 have never been treated so poorly as I was by this Dr. and his office staff. He refused to see me since I did not arrive 30 min early to the appointment. His reception staff was trashy, low class people that were rude and embarrassing. I would never recommend anyone to visit this office. I’m sorry but it does not take me 30 min to fill out a medical form, I also was a patient in the past with a different Dr. They require you to wear a mask, however I didn’t see one employee wearing one. Maybe time to file a complaint with the Nj board of medicine for unfair treatment and refusal of seeing a patient that waited 23 days for the appointment and who was in serious pain. I wouldn’t even want to be seen by this arrogant man. Found someone new already that has a little bit of class and knows how to treat people with compassion.

Dr. Petranto saved my husbands foot when other doctors wanted to amputate! Sixteen years later and his foot is doing well! He goes out of his way to help and answer any concerns! The nurses and staff are courteous and go out of their way to help! I highly recommend Dr. Petranto!

Fab! Wouldn't trust anyone else!! He has done surgery and treatment. He's kind yet no holds barred when it comes to medicine....He's smart and he's meticulous in his day to day operation. I like that in a doctor. It's clean, happy and yet, very professional..
