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.

What I love about Dr. P
What I love about Dr. P is his intellect, honesty and perspective. Not only is he an excellent clinician but he's equally adept at recognizing his patient's mental and emotional wellbeing. He has a knack for easing anxiety and insecurity with a perspective that is different and refreshing. We are forever grateful to be under the watchful eye of Dr. P.

I've been seeing Dr. Pizzolato sincew January of this year. I had 2 types of cancer. He suggested a change in diet, no meat or dairy and more whole foods and wild caight fish occasionally. I feel great eating this way! He explains things and answers any questions or concerns I might have. He is a great Dr.

Last week’s visit marked the end of a two year therapy regimen which successfully treated squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck. Previously, Dr. Pizzolato, MD diagnosed and successfully treated me with chemotherapy for splenomegaly and mantle cell lymphoma. He and his PA Nicole Tundidor have consistently treated me with respect and a positive attitude. Regular physical examinations have been thorough. Also, frequent PET scans have monitored my progress. I love these doctors and the entire support staff at the Mount Sinai cancer clinic!

Dr P is a warm, caring physician. He is very knowledgeable in his field and I am trusting him with my life. You can tell him anything. He also does not sugarcoat reality and helps you work through Any anxieties you may have. He texts, answers emails and calls to see how you are. Not too many like Dr P anymore! Wouldn’t trade him for the world!
