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 been to so many doctors and have suffered from Debilitating migraines since five years old...until I started seeing Dr. Maltese. whether it was a mild or severe..I always had some sort of headache everyday. Its a miserable way to live and I know many of other women have the same issues... I am telling you give Dr. Maltese a try.....I Thank god every day that I found him. Trust me Ive been to alot of neurologists in my day. To have days without headaches is something I thought was never going to happen until I died.

I've been seeing Dr. Maltese since last year for migraines. He's incredibly kind, thorough and listens to your concerns. He spends time getting to know you during your appointments and really puts you at ease (especially during nerve block injections). I would absolutely recommend him and his practice!

This review is not about Doctor as I never had the opportunity to meet with him. After waiting over a week to get an appointment to see him due to severe pain in my right arm, I ended up in major traffic due to an accident. I ended up being about 15 minutes late for my appointment and was kindly told that they could no longer see me. 15 minutes???? But it is okay to give you an appointment and make you wait a half hour before you even see a Doctor. Their time is important.....I get it....But so is mine. I would not have minded in this case if I had to wait, because I was late..... and the waiting room was already full. I would have understood

This doctor office truly cares about their patients. I drive all the way from Delaware to New York due to their outstanding service that goes up and beyond. I would recommend to anyone. They are unlike other practices it is not all about the money it is about the patients health and well being. In 50+ years this office which started at Dr. Mendelsohn and now Dr. Maltese and his assistant all are truly superior in all areas. Thank you!

As an actress, hair model, sales manager, and so much more; it is important that I feel well. As someone who suffers with neurological problems, I did not need to add a car accident to the mix. When I was involved in the accident in Oct. of 2016, I turned to Dr. Maltese. It was a pleasure to work with him and his staff. From their in-depth exam to their thorough questions; I felt like I was in good hands. I highly recommend this office for all of your medical needs.

I have been seeing Doctor Malatese for severe Migraine Treatments. Hands down this was the answer. His treatment has made such a difference. What I truly like about him is that he listens to me, I am an advocate for my own healthcare and he is the kind of doctor that does not ignore your requests or questions or concerns. You will love his office as well, they are so helpful.

Dr. Maltese has helped me tremendously. He took the time to get to know me and about the problems I had been having with migraines. He adjusted the medication and botox I was on and I haven't felt better in my life. He makes you feel like a patient should feel and not like an insurance claim. I've been to doctors that are more concerned about filling out insurance information than finding out information about the patient. Dr. Maltese and his staff make you feel comfortable and are pleasant

This doctor is absolutely the WORST doctor i ever came across. He wont be able to help you besides to write you a pain prescription.. STAY AWAY. His personal assistants are even worse which is hard to believe. You will regret going to this so called doctor. Spread the word.

It's impossible to get appointments. Appointments aren't available until a month down the line. The secretaries are rude and are not helpful in the least. definitely trying to find another neurologist that has better availability to serve their patients.

I would NOT recommend this doctor.The wait time was ridiculous. I was a new patient, and I had to wait over 1 hour to be seen. In the examine room, and I'm not kidding, he left the room in the middle of our conversation and didn't return for 15 mins. And he didn't say anything about why he left. Also, he recommended coming back for injections... just got the feeling he wants to milk my insurance and not treat my condition. I will not be going back. Don't bother.
