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.

I have had Barrett’s esophaguseveral years now. Dr. Ligresti sees me several times per year and burns out any pre-cancerous lesions he finds. This is life saving surgery and is not available In the area of Pennsylvania where I live

He was very informative. Excellent bedside manner. Very calm, smart, and patient. Felt very safe in his hands. he has wonderful nurses that work along side him at Hackensack Medical center. The nurses are gems and they make a great team.

I had a colonoscopy done last Friday April 1st and Dr. Ligresti did the procedure. I have a history of diverticulitis and unfortunately, it got inflamed over the weekend. I went to his office Monday and told them that I'am in pain but I was told That they don't take wal ins. If you are in pain they will not allow the other Doctor to look at you. I came back to the office, Doctor is done for the day. I refuse to leave the office until the Doctor calls me to prescribe an antibiotic. Not happy

I can't thx Dr. Ligresti enough for his kindness & great compassion. He treated my dad with such grace, warmth and understanding that his previous doctors horribly lacked. My dad was dx with cancer but his previous docs labelled him 82 years old & didn't feel that he was worth proper care. He needed a biopsy & no one was willing to do that for him. Dr. Ligresti fit us in his tight schedule, came to his office just to have a consultation with us & took exceptional care for him! Simply amazing!
