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.

Caring doctor
I went to Dr. Cellona for the first time a few days ago. Unlike most (just about all) doctors, she saw me on time. She was knowledgeable, thorough and personable. She devoted the necessary time to my appointment. I highly recommend her.

Dr. Cellona is a wonderful doctor. I have never had a bad experience with her. She is warm and caring, suggesting changes that can be made to better control my blood sugar. She spends as much time as you need with her and never rushes you our the door. She returns phone calls almost immediately. I could not find a better endocrinologist.

Dr. Cellona is very personable, explains your conditions to you in a patient, easy to understand way. She does not have an arrogant bone in her body. She is very caring and returns calls and messages to you very promptly.

Horrible Physician and medical office, today is Friday and I have a scheduled appointment on Monday because my GP required I take diabetes medication. Dr Cellona personally calls to cancel my appointment. I specifically called the staff and asked them to contact her to see if she would accept me be back after she discharged me as a patient one year prior. Just terrible, my medication runs out in one week but she has policy. Don't make the mistake, never go to this medical doctor.
