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. Cione was amazing
Dr. Cione, listened, answered questions and did an all around amazing job on my gallbladder surgery. I had little to no pain after the surgery, my incisions are barely noticeable. He was on time and very friendly.

Definitely the Best!!!!
Kind, listens, thorough, allows patient choice of treatments, great office staff, short wait for appointments, just can't find a better choice for surgery. Helped my husband for tough emergency surgery, and 10 years later helped me locate source of my pain and did a great removal!

Amazing surgeon
Dr Cione was very knowledgeable and did a great job of explaining the procedure. In addition, he has a wonderful bedside manner and actually prayed with my wife and I prior to the procedure. He is amazing and would highly recommend Dr Cione.

Dr. Cione was awesome.
Dr. Cione, in my opinion, is in league with Dr. David Park, Gastroenterologist, and Dr. Roger Emerson who replaced my knees. He was kind, considerate, and totally professional. Before surgery he explained the entire procedure, prayed with me and, along with his anesthetist are totally awesome.

Robotic Hernia Repair is Great
My family doctor recommended Dr. Cione for treatment of my 3 hernias. I would also recommend him for this type of surgery, as it was a very good experience. Dr Cione impressed me as being very competent. He answered all questions both before and after the surgery, which occurred 3 weeks ago. He used robotic hernia repair, and there was minimal discomfort and almost no pain after the surgery. Talking to folks who have had this done the 'traditional' way, I can tell I am healing much faster. I recommend recording your conversations with Dr. Cione. He talks quickly and provides a lot of content, so it can be difficult to take notes fast enough. He was good with me recording our conversations.

Dedicated and Kind
'You're a lifesaver' I'm so thankful to have been treated and cared for by Dr. Cione. He is an excellent communicator and his robotic surgery skills are above and beyond. I feel truly blessed to have been his patient and receive amazing care in his office and hospital. Dr. Cione is a dedicated surgeon, yet humble and kind and I cannot express how fortunate I feel to have been referred to your practice.

Helpful for first time surgery patient
Dr. Cione was very excellent. As someone undergoing surgery for the first time, he was very reassuring and helpful, explaining everything in an easy to understand and succinct manor. The surgery went perfectly and I am recovering great, and his follow up appointment pre-empted all of my questions and made everything really smooth.

First class experience
Dr. Cione and his whole team from the time I scheduled my initial appointment to the time I was discharged were not just very good, they were outstanding. Dr. Cione established my issue, advised and described in understandable language, the treatment and then executed it with great skill that permitted me to return to my normal activities in the projected time frame. His whole team from the receptionist, to his medical team to the discharge nurse were knowledgeable, courteous and welcoming. I can highly recommend Dr. Cione.

Superlative Surgeon
What a wonderful doctor, who is clearly called to practice medicine. Highest level of patient care, surgical skills, and professionalism. I will refer him to anyone I am able to. These days, it is difficult to find such a fantastic doctor who has a sweet staff, kind medical assistants, and an atmosphere of real care, both in office and at the surgical center. Thank you, Dr. Cione. You are a blessing.

Very good explanation of surgery with use of a good chart to show what would be done. Answered all questions in a calm, unhurried way. I was really impressed with his efficient, organized and personalized way. I was very pleased with the initial office visit, surgery and post office visit.

Excellent!
I felt very relaxed when I first arrived at Dr Cione's office. The 'vibe' of the office was calm and soothing. Dr Cione's bedside manner was reassuring and he explained everything in language that I, as the patient, could comprehend. He was polite and respectful. All of that flowed into the day of my surgery. As an added blessing, he prayed for me before we went into the operating room. At the post op appointment he explained the results of the biopsy and referred me to the appropriate doctor for the next step. I highly recommend Dr Cione and his staff.

Gallbladder Surgery (Robotic)
Dr. Cione was an exceptionally kind and understanding person. He took the time to explain everything to me and answer any questions I had. All of his support people were also very professional. The operation went smoothly, and I was home the same day. I received a follow-up call the next day, and an office visit two weeks later. I would highly Dr. Cione to anyone requiring gallbladder surgery. I couldn't be more pleased.

Perfect Doctor
Dr. Cione took excellent care of me and fit me in on his day off just to do my emergency surgery. I really appreciated his level of professionalism but at the same time he was very empathetic and understanding. Before surgery he prayed for me with my family and the doctors and nurses in the room. He is my hero! Thank you Dr. Cione!
