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.

I always have a positive experience whenever I see Dr Pecora. Can’t say enough about him and his wonderful staff.

Dr. Pecora is the best physician I’ve ever had. He’s been my doctor for almost 20 years now and has always come through for me and my wife. A throwback to the family practitioners of yesteryear.

Dr. Pecora is a class act. He is down to earth, easy to talk to, super knowledgeable, and thorough. Our family trusts and loves this practice!

Dr Pecora seems distracted and rushes with the appointment. I used to see Dr Wajcberg in that practice but saw him when she left, she is great and now at St Peters and I will transfer to her new practice because Dr Pecora is very careless.

The doctor is nice enough. He does not explain much unless prompted to do so. He may prescribe non-pharma "remedies" that are otherwise not recommended. Required re-visits are not explained up front. The office part of the practice is run catastrophically badly. The office staff is typically unpleasant. Appointments are scheduled retroactively (when you run out of medicine!) rather than proactively by the office. Required re-visits are not explained up front, nor scheduled in advance.
