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’ve been treated 2 times by Dr Cordone, and will be returning for a third. My legs felt and looked much better each time. I have referred friends to him that also achieved great results.

He was very rude to his staff, and accused me of missing many appointments. Did not inject my legs with medication after my ablations or after laser procedure. I am barely walking now, and in so much pain. Please think twice before making an appointment. This is 3 years later and I just started new treatment at a much better place. It took one of the nurses their who took me on the side and told me to go else where for treatment because he was not going to fix them. I then went for treatment at another place, but because he didn't inject the medication I'm paying for it now.

I chose Dr.Cardone because of his experience and I knew I needed treatment. While he was 70 miles from where I live, I was very happy with my decision. I needed a vein removed in one leg and RF ablations and microfilm injections in both legs. Dr. Cardone lead all procedures and personally performed and guided them. These were not pain free procedures but everything was fully explained to me. My treatment went according to plan. All of the staff are very competent. I recommend them highly

He is mistaken, thinks that I missed many appointments. While I was being seen, he had gone on vacation. I had one appointment out in Oconomowoc, and on that day we were having a snowstorm. This is the only time I had missed my appointment. The drive was just too far for me to drive since I live in Milwaukee by the airport. My legs are no better than they were from the beginning, and now he doesn't want to see me any more? I did make one mistake, but I wasn't aware of the depth of it.

Dr. Cardone is extremely knowledgeable while being down-to-earth. He explained every procedure in great detail without being condescending or overly academic. Dr. Cardone also has a great sense of humor, creating a cheerful energy throughout the whole staff. After my first visit, I was practically family!
