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 Velotta performed a left lung pneumonectomy on my brother April 2nd 2021 for stage 3 non small cell lung cancer. This was a 6 hr surgery which also involved cancer on the pulmonary aorta. My brother is now recovering very well and is cancer free. Dr Velotta is a highly skilled surgeon.
