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.

Very thorough doctor!
Went over my history and took an hour on my physical. First time seeing him and so far very pleased.

Personable and informative
Dr. Costello spent an hour with me in the new office for an annual physical. He was extremely friendly, answered all of my questions, and knew his stuff well. Will definitely be returning to him in the future.

Caring and compassionate
He is a great doctor. My doctor left the practice and I needed to see someone. Dr. Costello saw me and ordered all the tests I needed. He went over everything and recommended a wonderful specialist to follow up with. Also, even 4 months later he called me to check up on me and see what my next steps will be.

Very patient and took a ton of time with me. His assistant who did my testing was sweet as well.

Saw him once, never again. Very arrogant and condescending, and very weird if you even so much as speak to another doctor. (A requirement of my health insurance was that I speak to someone on the phone before scheduling an appointment. He called to cancel my appointment because of that, and said if I wasn’t feeling well to go to the emergency room. For a cold.....)

I finally found a doctor who has the time and patience to sit and discuss test results, advice for future care and just being kind, without trying to rush me or leave the room as quickly as he can.
