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.

Wonderful experience
Very caring and effective. Takes time to explain, never feel rushed. Lovely personality.

Great experience!
I was thoroughly impressed with my first visit to Dr. Zuniga-Barboni. My wait time was less than 10 minutes. Her staff was courteous and polite. Then Dr. Zuniga-Barboni spent about 45 minutes with me (that's unheard of in today's world!). She listened to my problems, did extensive testing, and was thorough in her explanations and diagnosis. I highly recommend her.

I found her so professional and friendy. I made an appointment with her because I had a brain injury. I went through rehabilitation. I am 74 and when I lose my balance I get angry at my husband who is the best husband in the world. We chose to make an appointment with Dr.Sylvia Zuniga-Barboni because we read excellent reviews about her.

A great, caring neurologist in Palm Beach County
I traveled from New Jersey to Florida, where I have a house I use for the winter, because I could not get an appointment with a neurologist for 5 months out in New Jersey. I was impressed with Dr. Barboni's professional and caring approach to my issues. The office staff was efficient and polite. She was always available if I needed to speak to her and returned phone calls in a timely fashion. I highly recommend Dr. Barboni to anyone who has a neurologic issue.

Dr. Zuniga-Barboni has always been on time for my appointments with her. She seems to know me when I visit and has continued to improve my symptoms whenever I see her. She notices symptoms that I don't even know I have. I would say that her bedside manner is very good, and I highly recommend her as a Board Certified Neurologist.

I don't have to wait long to see her. She is the only doctor I saw for my epilepsy who was willing to work with me on the dosage for the medication. All other doctors I saw just wanted to tell me to take a high dosage of a certain drug, which I cannot do. She is patient, listens. Always a good visit.

An amazing Neurologist
After seeing 4 different neurologists over the past 6 years, 2 we left and 2 who quit practicing, we finally found someone who was a wonderful fit! Dr. Barboni was excellent to talk to, she was kind, professional and we have the utmost confidence in her care. When we had questions about the medicines for my husbands disease, she gave us decisive reasons to continue what he is on. She truly listened to us and we feel comfortable knowing she is there for us.

Awesome Dr.
Diagnosed me with a rare autoimmune condition and has been very concerned taking actions to make me feel the best I can while still being cautious and careful with meds. She takes detailed notes during each visit and spends time to discuss various symptoms, side effects, questions, and concerns. Off the charts rating as an awesome doctor!!
