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.

Dr Salerno saved my wife’s life. She came in after suffering a major heart attack with no prior record of heart problems. He and the team at Jackson Memorial Hospital diagnosed it as SCAD, a recently discovered heart condition that affects otherwise healthy young women. He did emergency surgery on her and bypassed a blocked artery on her heart. After a week, she is doing well and we are preparing to take her home for follow up and long term care. Thank you, doctor!
