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.

Best of the Best
3 generations of my family see Dr Carese! I wouldn't want to see another Dr. for Gyno stuff. He treats us like we are family. Caring, listens, has solutions. I have yet to find ANY Dr that comes close to Dr Carese's knowledge and experience. My mother, my adult daughter and I are dreading the day we get a letter in the mail that he is retiring. I have never felt comfortable with any other Dr like I do with Dr Carese. And Roberta! We love her. She is my favorite too! The receptionists are always so very friendly and helpful. I feel a sense of safe when in the office.

I adore Dr. Carrese, from day one I felt comfortable. He's what I would consider a family doctor, easy to talk to, jokes, but is serious and goes above and beyond.

Dr. Carrese is the best. I was nervous seeing him the first but he made me feel very comfortable and his staff is amazing. Dr. Carrese listens to his patients and takes the time to understand them. I will never go to another OB-GYN. He's the best. I highly recommend him.
