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. Cardone has been both my husband and my surgeon for well over 10 years for a number of issues. He has always been very respectful, extremely helpful and personable. He has and always will be our “go to” doctor wherever the need arises.

Patient care
Not pleased with behavior should have better understanding of patients. Shaming patients for what he views as their failure when they have no control of outcome even when following complete instruction. Requiring patients to come see him for results instead of giving results at hospital or over phone.

Excellent Surgeon
Dr. Cardone is a great surgeon and a wonderful person! Both my husband and I have him as our general surgeon and we have both have good experiences with him. He is one of the only GS in Mohave County so that makes him extremely busy. Yet, he still is thorough when explaining his procedures and or results! I highly recommend him!

Dr cordone's office staff really is the meanest bunch of withes I know of. They do not like to get your paperwork together, nor do they like to do releases to be able for you to go back to work. Nasty on the phone and nasty in person. Not supportive at all! Maybe he needs to get rid of some of them and then they can see how they like being without money. Can't stand them!

Has too many patients, never bothered to show up to the hospital to check on me after my surgery! My follow up appointment in his office was weeks late and rushed. Never got my questions answered, went on Web MD.
