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.

Zero stars to the staff! What a bunch of snobs!
You cannot have a good reputation when your staff is mentally ill!

Dr Abbate 5 Star Rating
Dr Abbate and her Team are very attentive, professional, helpful, kind and informed. I met with Dr Abbate about a condition called Hypertrophic CardioMyopathy, HCM. It is something new to me and Dr Abbate and her Team are helping me figure out what is the best course of action to take. Dr Abbate has requested a number of Tests; MRI of my Heart, Blood Tests, Heart Monitor, and more Blood Tests. One of the most amazing things is that Dr Abbate stays in continual contact after she receives the results of the Tests or if I have a question or two or three. I feel very cared for and helped. I feel like I am in the BEST hands possible and if this is something I have to figure out, I am glad I am doing it with Dr Abbate and her Team at The Valley Hospital with the Valley Medical Group.Cathy Diaz, Allendale, NJ

This lady is exceptional. She is an inspired medical professional, but also a beautiful and compassionate human being. Always tuning in to your emotions, she seems to have unlimited time to explain things clearly. Heart surgeons are frequently narcissistic rock stars, with huge egos. This special angel breaks that mold totally! I owe my life to her. Literally.
