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.

A year ago we lost our mother to colon cancer. Dr. Ceraldi had performed her colonoscopy two years prior to her diagnosis and had removed part of a polyp. When asked by the referring physician if he should go back in, he responded that she was too old. I wish she had been given the opportunity to decide whether to follow up on this or not. Even though she was in her early 80s, she was otherwise healthy and had more life to live. I'm sure Dr. Ceraldi is a good surgeon, but he should not be making these types of decisions for his patients. I can't prove that this was the start of her illness, but her cancer was in the same part of her colon where the polyp was disturbed but not fully removed. I wouldn't use him for a diagnostic procedure. I also wish that her primary care physician had referred her to a specialist for this procedure instead of sending her to Dr. Ceraldi.
