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.

Outstanding, Experienced Physician
I am an oncology nurse and my whole family is made up of doctors and nurses and I have a lot of exposure to physicians. My experience with Dr. Pitaro was outstanding. He combines a wealth of experience and knowledge with warmth and making you feel so comfortable. My time with him was anything but rushed. He addressed all my questions and concerns. I researched many doctors before I decided to go to Dr. Pitaro and I am so glad I did. The entire staff, from front desk to medical assistant, were friendly and professional. Very very positive review!

Dr. Pitaro has been my primary care physician for 20 years. He's amazing. I've switched health plans twice so I could keep going to him. He's thorough, listens to you and has solutions that aren't just the bottled, "take this pill".

He has been my primary physician for more than 20 years. Kind considerate and extremely knowledgable. He is the primary physician for 4 other members of my family and several close friends. I have complete faith and confidence in his abilities and highly recommend him. His office staff - especially Office manager Elizabeth Berry - is also kind , considerate and extremely competent
