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 Rotella is the best! I’m a difficult case. I have many unusual health issues & he just dove right in to make a plan of attack. He researches as needed & explains things in layman’s terms. I have very bad doctor anxiety & he put me at ease immediately. He’s laid back, non-imposing, but very tuned in to what you are saying. He listens! He’s very kind, professional, & he’s always available. He is very intelligent, down-to-earth, & has a lot of common sense, unlike many doctors I’ve had in past. He doesn’t have an ego or his own agenda, that gets in the way of caring for his patients! He genuinely cares & I trust him completely. He gives you options & let’s you decide what you want. He never makes me feel bad if I didn’t take his suggestions. He also has a great network of specialists, & he works with my insurance. Dr R even worked with my disability lawyers. The rest of his staff are equally professional, efficient, kind & they actually call you back.Appointments are easy to get too.

I've been a patient of Dr Rotella for several years. I believe he and his staff literally saved my live two years ago after an infection and complications after open heart surgery. He was instrumental and getting me readmitted and treated for a serious post op infection. I trust him and his excellent staff with my healthcare. I'm happy he is younger than I and hope he can be my GP for many years.

A longtime patient of Joseph Rotella, MD at the Scottsdale Medical Center. I have MS - due to the physical challenge of getting to his office I reluctantly had to switch to home health care. After three months I canceled. Nobody compares to Dr. Rotella. I'm back with the doctor who cares about me as a person, who treats me like family. Emailed him yesterday and said that even though it will be difficult physically, I want to come home. That evening, long after office hours Dr. Rotella wrote back: "We will always be here for you, and I will take care of you." That's indicative of his patient care. I recommend him and his Scottsdale Medical Care practice. Not only is he an extraordinary physician, recently he had the foresight to open an adjacent office called Prevene (as in preventative medicine) patients learn more about their body than they ever thought possible using state-of-the-art scanners. His annual physicals are full-body scans- they are covered by insurance. Can't beat that.

I am 69 years old and Dr. Rotella is the best doctor I have ever seen. He is the smartest, most compassionate, most caring and most thorough doctor I have ever known. He takes care of a myriad of problems so I don't have to see a number of specialists. He really listens when I talk which is very rare. His staff is great. The office is beautiful and convenient. He is simply the best and there is no more to say. I highly recommend him for your PCP.

Dr. Joe asked me to try out his new Preveen Health and Wellness Clinic located across the parking lot from the regular office. Visited yesterday for my annual physical and found the environment to be quiet and soothing. Staff was super helpful, caring and professional, helping to lay out a plan to stay healthy, lose weight in a multi-month plan and stay on track. This practice is a great new addition to his already great team of professionals. Cannot say enough good things about them all.

Staff very rude and it seems like a busy office. I was looking to establish a relationship with an actually primary care physician, but I was scheduled with a staff PA. No thanks, i will go elsewhere.

Have been going to Dr Rotella for about five years now and can recommend him without reservation. Prescriptions pills don't fix everything and that is not necessarily his first line of attack. Great chair-side manner and willing to truly listen so he understands what you are saying to get to a solution. He conveys such a sense of calm and is extremely easy to talk to. While I don't see him as labeled "Integrative" - I find him more in that mold than any other.

Dr. Rotella is the kind of doctor you would expect in a small town. He always takes time for me and answers all questions. He gives options of treatment and is far and above the norm these days.. He operates his practice with a genuine emphasis on help and benevolence. I suffer migraines and I am very grateful to have been referred to him. Very refreshing.

Dr. Rotella is a very sincere and caring doctor. I've never had such accessibility to a doctor through his portal, he answers very quickly (even though it says up to 2 days, it's generally less). He never makes you feel as if you are rushed, or when you leave as if you haven't had a question answered. If I forget something, I've always been able to just email through the portal and get it answered. I've had a tremendous amount of experience with doctors, I can highly recommend Dr. Rotella.

I have been seeing Dr. Rotella for years. He is knowledgable, kind, and caring. I don't feel rushed, I don't have to wait. I recommend him to everyone I know. I used to get horrible migraines and he took the time to help take care of them. Denise is amazing too.

Dr Rotella and his staff have been caring for my family and I for the past 5 years. Each visit, Dr Rotella spends time with me and my family to explain everything.. I feel like he and his staff truly care.... I never feel rushed. I went undiagnosed for years with a Thyroid condition but Dr Rotella was able to figure it out on my first office visit. I will forever be grateful!
