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.

Been a patient for years. I've found Dr. Occhipinti to be knowledgeable and caring. He's always found a remedy for any of my throat issues. Terrific bedside manor.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Occhipinti?
Very disappointed in the fact that the physician could not determine what was wrong with my throat. After three visits over a three week period, he referred me to a speech therapist. Neither of them could give me an answer to what was wrong. It was a vocal chord granuloma. I coughed, it dislodged and I was immediately able to speak again. It turns out that this is a common ailment. I paid for several doctor visits and then the speech therapist. When I went in, I felt that he listened.
