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.

Lawrence Gogenola
I had gone to my family doctor, a NP, Allergist in a six month period. Finally, I found Dr. Gogenola and he immediately knew what was going on. I had a bad allergic condition. He told me not to use products with dyes, or perfumes. I followed his advice and my problem was solved.

This Dr. is horrible,the worst ever. His office says 'masks are required' and yet he didn't wear his properly, all the way down to chin at one point. He told my son who isn't even 12,to take off mask if he wishes.Because Dr. himself is vaccinated, he is no harm. I was shocked.I complained to the office and w/in an hr,Dr called me and said he's vaccinated and is safe.I told him,the news says even fully vaccinated people can still get the virus and will spread it to others and I go with the science.Dr.G said "WHATEVER".This ignorant and rude dr. doesn't believe in science.I don't know why he's a dr. when he doesn't believe in science.My son has a skin condition called Pleva and gets light therapy once/twice a wk.The rash he usually has turned black and painful.We unfortunately had to see Dr. G because our dr was out that day.Big mistake!Dr. insisted it's a bug bite when I told him it's not and did a culture test. Turned out it wasn't a bug bite. This stupid dr should listen to patients.

We waited for over an hour with our infant child to receive not even an apology by the doctor for the wait. He also took one look at our baby and determined there was no concern (which we agreed with) but he didn’t even take a closer look or touch her skin. Our appointment lasted less than 4 minutes.

The doctor may be too old. Treated incorrect spot and after having to pay for a 2nd visit I ended up going to another dermatologist.
