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.

Surgery is his main solution
He STRONGLY recommended surgery to address my fractured tibia & fibula. Turns out I DID NOT NEED surgery.

Dr Tocci listened and gave me details on what to expect on my maniscus, noting that arthritis is damaging it and cortisone shots can help for the near future and they have. Was clear about what to expect down the road. He has successfully treated injuries in the past, and I have nothing but good things to say for him and his staff.

He Made a Mess of my toes!
I had foot surgery and had a hammer toe /mallet toe surgery on my second toe on my right foot by Dr. Tocci a few years ago and he put in a stainless steel screw in my big toe for a small bunion, which should never have been done. It should have been a titanium screw! I had to have it removed by another doctor and the second toe next to it that had the hammer toe/mallet toe he did, is now stiff and feels like a stiff rod. I would never let him operate on me again!

Absolutely horrible. I was left with much worse pain. He not only didn’t treat my original neuroma he cut a new and worse one.

Dr Tocci lacks basic orthopedic and diagnostic skills for surgical treatment of the knee. I left his care after 2 failed surgeries. I required a third surgery and I went someplace else. I would not recommend Dr Tocci. His staff is rude as well.

I saw Dr. Tocci for the first time and he was so kind and spent a lot of time listening to my concerns and diagnosing my foot problem. He is very caring and wants to help his patients. I am so thankful to have found Dr. Tocci. He was highly recommended and I can see why! He is terrific! Very nice office staff as well!

Dr. Tocci was completely unsympathetic, and laughed that I expected him to alleviate my pain and discomfort. He had no useful recommendations and made it clear he never wanted to see me again. Admittedly my condition is not uncommon, never mind medically interesting, but I have been in pain for almost 3 years and would have appreciated some sympathy and medically appropriate recommendations.
