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.

Unreliable, insensitive Dr.
I was his patient for over a decade, yet he never returned a call, even when he was on-call. I called him when I got a transplant a few times, and he completely ignored me, never returned my calls and acted as if I didn’t exist. I think that he’s insensitive, a phony, and is only interested in making money. I would never recommend him.

Incredible Physician
I first met Dr. Capicotto in the ER suffering from kidney & heart failure. That was over 10 years ago and I credit him for my current life and good health. He treats the entire person, knows my family, and is my go-to for any concerns. I highly recommend him

Horrible doctor.
I had a horrible experience with Dc. Capicotto. As a new patient they made me to wait almost an hour. He gave me new medicine for high Blood pressure. I stared to have many side effects after I took the med.and blood pressure went up to 180/110. I called him a few times to get advise. He was very arrogant ,rude, and refuses to help me. I had to Urgent care to get help. Stay away from him.
