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. Federico took the time to review my husbands CT films and explained the results in detail. He was very empathetic and my husband felt very comfortable with his recommendations. We appreciated the time he spent with us and his expertise.

Veru Highly recommend
Dr Fredrico saved my husbands life-- after another doctor took 6 months to try to diagnose lung issue. Dr Fredrico, just looked at the scan and new immediately it was lung cancer-- he got the surgery in quickly and removed 1/3 of his lung-- thankfully seems to have gotten all the cancer out-- been two years cancer free. (and no chemo) My husband is still very active and missing part of lung, hasn't slowed him down a bit. So extremely thankful for this amazing Dr. Just wish, he would have stayed in Kalispell -- A big loss for our community

Excellent diagnostician excellent surgeon. I have nothing but good things to say about Dr. Federico. Appreciative of his speedy diagnosis of non small cell cancer and resolution with lung surgery 5 years ago. Un fortunately he felt the need to leave Ct.

There is no better surgeon or thoracic diagnostician anywhere. Dr. Federico saved my life TWICE! It was a sad day when he left CT. Anyone who survived lung cancer did because of he and his group.

Dr. Federico was very knowledgeable about my condition. He corrected a diagnosis by another doctor which would have had dire consequences on my health with chemo and unnecessary operations. Dr Federico has the experience to determine causes and subtleties not written in the medical books. I would be uncomfortable going to another doctor. Also, if you ask questions he will answer them and explain to your satisfaction.
