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.

Dr Pedro Garciarena
I am a patient of Dr. Garciarena. He has changed practices in Naples. I am a widow of a physician and know that contracts are written to prevent Docs from announcing their departure or telling you where they are going. He is my third doctor who has left their Physician Regional practice.. I found each of the three and remained in their practice.

Awful experience
First of all have been a patient of Dr. Garciarena for many years. Saw him in Nov 22 and all seemed fine. Called to make another appointment the next day and was told Dr. G would be leaving hospital and would have to see Dr. Garrido. Was shocked because Dr. Garcereana never mentioned a word to us. So made an appointment for March 8th 2023. I went there today and they told me the new Dr was on vacation! They said they left a message a couple of days ago, I showed them my phone with absolutely no calls or messages from them. I even pulled up my portal and it still showed that I had an appt today. I am totally disgusted with this practice and this "hospital". Will find a much better alternative.

I didn't have a chance to see Dr. Garciarena since I received a call today cancelling an appointment that I had made three weeks ago as a new patient. It was cancelled for no reason and now I can't get another one until May. I think this is totally unprofessional and rude!!! I have never had a doctor treat me this way!

The doctor is an employee at Physicians Regional in a specialty where there are no cures, only management and MRIs, so it's a hopeless visit. The staff are truly the worst, they lose faxes, appointments, and I went in person to bring my medical records, it was 4:30pm and the desk was closed and lights off with a big sign that states " Office closes at 5pm" . There was a man working there for a different doctor and he said, "oh they all went home at 3:30 because their last 2 patients no-showed" meanwhile I have been waiting for my appointment for 4 months. Unconscionable and cruel treatment, I have neuropathy and they treat their jobs like fast food, disposable and meaningless. Managers are just as bad. Will never go back! No wonder those patients no-showed.

Dr. Garciarena and his nurse, Liz, provided outstanding service, seeing me on short notice, regarding an adverse reaction to a drug I was prescribed. The doctor was attentive and informative. Every experience I’ve had with Dr. Garciarena has been a positive one. He really takes the time to deal with your situation, is truly empathetic, and knowledgeable. I highly recommend him for any issue that falls under his expertise.

Competent and genuinely caring. He helped me with persistent neuralgia on an area of my face following an awful bout with Ocular Shingles. He did a thorough work up to exclude more serious causes of my condition then prescribed medication which greatly reduced my pain and also dealt with the insomnia that began with the Shingles attack. Excellent treatments and results.
