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.

Not good
Gave my wife 6-18mos to live 2 years ago, but didn’t have the decency to tell her herself. Had a nurse call us. My wife was making progress with palliative care when she placed in hospice care. Her quality of life would have been much better than it has been these past two years if it hadn’t been for this uncaring quack.

  • Appointment scheduling

My Mom lived with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis for almost 10 years and Dr Palminteri was her Dr for the majority of that time. The Dr is very caring and takes the time to listen to the patient (& family members). She was creative with medication ideas which was not easy! She was also very understanding that my mom lived 3 hours from her office. I highly recommend Dr Palminteri and thank her for her fantastic care of my mom.

DR. PALMINTERI diagnosed my illness after I had been to four different specialists over 8 years of missed diagnoses. She is relaxed and listens to the patient.Treats you with respect and explains xrays.Works with you not at you.

I have been a patient of Dr. Palminteri for the past few years. I must say that her professionalism, compassion, and humanitarianism is beyond reproach. Dr. Palminteri treats her patients as human beings, not dollars. She intently listens to your health concerns and talks to her patients in lay-terms, not medical/scientific jargon. Dr. Palminteri ensures that you fully understand your illness and treatment. If you are looking for a pulmonologist, I definitely and highly recommend Dr. Palmenteri.

I was admitted to MMC April 30 2016, met Dr. Palminteri at the hospital. She diagnoised my condition within 10 mins of hearing my symtoms, which was CTEPH a rare condition. She went above and beyond to take care of me. I had blood clots in my lungs two yrs. ago and have been short of breath ever since, but had never been referred to a pulmonologist.
