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.

Incredibly Patient and Knowledgeable!
I saw Dr. Cimino after moving to Connecticut and needed to establish care for a condition I have had for over 20 years. I have been treated by many orthopedic surgeons for the condition and he is hands down the best. He is incredibly friendly, patient and personable. I was also very impressed by his treatment plan: it is the most comprehensive and thorough approach I have seen. I would highly recommend him!

Dr. Cimino left my daughter hanging with her back pain and foot tingling symptoms. He never returned her phone calls to get Lyme disease bloodwork results interpreted and had the nerve to send a final bill 11 months later. Even a referral to another specialist would have been appreciated to get closure on the case. I would NOT recommend Dr. Cimino to anyone, stay away!

I have been a patient of Dr. Cimino's for years I have had 14 operations when I was younger but now suffer with severe arthritis in both feet I have been on medication which helps but if I overdue it my feet are so sore. I just went back for a check up and got a cortisone shot in each foot and my feet feel like brand new - the shots were like a miracle and I can't thank him enough. I highly recommend Dr. Cimino.

Dr. Cimino is very expensive and lies in his medical reports and never calls his patients back. Very frustrating when he used to be a caring doctor. Now it seems like all he cares about is overcharging patients and lying in medical reports...very sad!

Always felt like he was trying to sell me something I didn't need. When he sold me a bone stimulator (that didn't work) he told me the other option was surgery that would take a YEAR to heal. After consulting other doctors I was told it was maybe 6 months. This was a HUGE factor in my decision to go with the bone stim instead of the surgery. After spending nearly 3 months with the bogus bone stim I could have been halfway done healing.
