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.

Skilled Surgeon and Very Personable
Dr. Cellini was very thorough and patient in preparing me for surgery and did a fantastic job keeping me informed about the surgery and preparing me for discharge. She never appeared rushed and always asked if she could answer any questions I might have. I would strongly recommend Dr. Cellini to family and friends.

She is an excellent doctor, I am an excellent pati
Working together my experience was totally positive. Interactions with all staff members including Dr Cellini were caring, competent, and reassuring. As I recover from my surgery I am aware of just how blessed I am to be under their care.

Was extremely rude and the appointment felt rushed. Other staff were great. Look to other physicians if you end up scheduled with Dr. Cellini.

If I could give Dr. Cellini 20 stars, I would! She is the perfect blend of technical expertise, communication skills and "people skills," and all get top marks from me! She recently performed minimally invasive robotic surgery and removed a bad section of my colon. My quick recovery has far exceeded my best expectations, and I attribute that to the skills of Dr Cellini and her team. This included plenty of hassle-free pro-active communication as needed - I felt like Dr Cellini "had my back" from the time we discussed potential surgery through the post-op follow-up visit. She patiently and pleasantly answers questions, so be prepared to ask any you may have. I would recommend Dr. Cellini to family and friends in a heart-beat!

Dr. Cellini talked me through everything I needed to know about my surgery. She understood my concerns as I underwent a previous surgery & put me at ease. I’m not sure if she was responsible for hospital stay & recovery on WCC5, but I’m going with yes. And for that, I’ll be forever grateful.

What's not to like? She's as serious as serious gets when she needs to be, & you're not going to find a way to knock her off her mission to fix what's wrong, even if it's a subject ripe with comedy potential like a colon ripe w/ ulcerative colitis damage like the one I had ... but sadly, she would not let me take it home in a pickle jar for my odd version of show & tell, and, well, just to grumble at now & then ... because once-captured, turnabout would have been fair play, no, Mr. Wiley Colon?
