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.

If I could leave no stars I would. Dr. Cimmino is the worst doctor I have been to. Terrible bedside manner. Doesn't care about his patients. Stay far away from this doctor.

My wife paid a visit in August for low back pain. Now we got medical bills of several hundred dollars for thyroid function tests, Helicobacter Pylori test, etc - not related with a chief complaint. I’m a physician and absolutely not able to understand this kind of exploitation. ‘course there was no explanation for the tests and results at all. Shame.

Dr. Marc Cimmino is a good doctor but the wait is entirely too long. Even with an appointment, the wait is over an hour in the waiting room and an additional waiting in the examination room which feels like torture. Expect to be in and out in 2+ hours which is why I hate coming here.

Do not waste your time coming here. It's not worth it. The wait is ridiculous and there is always and I mean an excuse on why the wait is so long (waiting over 2 hours isn't right.) The front desk isn't good either. Go somewhere else for your check up and/or blood work. I had blood work done and I called a while later to get my results and they never gave it to me. I'm going over there to go get it myself and I am never going back.

Dr. Cimmino is worth the wait. He is such a compassionate doctor that cares about his patient's. That's why the wait is so long. He spends time with his patient's. He has diagnosed things that other doctor's have missed.

Not sure, because I never got to see him.. They left me sitting there for 3.5 hrs and when I got up to ask about the wait, her reply is, I'm sitting here too you know..
I said but your getting paid.. I'm not...
I lost 3 hrs because you told me you don't have 5pm appts yet, I'm waiting past 6pm.
Wrong answer nurse. That's not empathy for patients.
Don't bother. Rude people who don't respect people's time..

The amount of time being wasted in the waiting room is disrespecrful to the patience. The office overbooks appointments and allows walk ins, which leads to hours of waiting. Staff does not seem to be fazed by the rudeness of thinking peoples time is not important. The survey asks wait time and only goes to 45+ minutes. I waited 3 hours!!!!
