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.

He and his staff are very efficient and nice. Dr. Avalon is down to business but never felt rushed and always felt satisfied With my appointments and most importantly I trust him

I had arthroscopic surgery by Dr. Avallone, and i would not recommend him or his office. He spends 5 minutes with you and stares at his notes the whole time. They only time he seemed interested was when I agreed to surgery. When reviewing my preop condition he said I had received two cortisone shots and info about exercises. In reality, I received one shot and his staff never gave me information about exercises. I told him about the discrepancy and he didn't care.

I asked to speak with him before surgery. Was told he would by the nurse. They wheeled me back to do nerve block and knock me out, I asked again. Still nothing. Nerve block failed causing diaphragm to do cartwheels. I woke up in O.R. immediately after surgery in severe pain. Nurse said nerve block didn't work at all. Asked too speak with dr again was told he left. Surgery went 2.5 hours. I asked what the problem was. Not one person at Good Sam knew they couldn't read his writing. Today nothing

He doesn't listen to what the patient has to say about their own body. He decided that it was ok for me to go back to work yet I still cannot be on my feet for extented periods of time because of the pain. He spends about 5 min with patients and doesn't listen to them. I am still having issues with my injury and because I was sent by workman's comp. They felt the sooner they released me the better. I STILL AM NO BETTER!!!!!
