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 trust Dr Apicella completely. He knows what he is doing, I have always had excellent results from his treatment. He is personable and kind, but when the procedure begins he is all business and in complete control of everything and everyone. His staff is wonderful. All are professional and extremely competent. The office runs smoothly and I have never had even a hint of a problem. His PA(s) maintain the same level of excellence as Dr Appicella himself.

Poor communication between he and his nurses. I got different answers to the same questions to both he and his nurses. He doesn’t instill confidence. Does not always have answers at his fingertips. Sometimes his answers to my questions are vague and seemingly not well thought out. I just felt he was not at the top of his game.

I have had an excellent experience with this caring and available physician. I have observed his skill which has given me days and months of pain relief. I have seen his skill in preparing for a procedure so not to inflict more pain. Are the procedures uncomfortable sometimes but I get sometimes immediate relief from some really awful, I mean awful pain. Thanks to Dr Apicella I can do more, and enjoy life a little better. This is unsolicited !!! ps the staff is very good too. S.C.Corson RPh.

Excellent doctor, after my third lumbar injection I know Dr Ed. well, and I have complete confidence in him. Definitely 5 stars. The facility is immaculately clean and their protocol clearly is as thorough and as careful as can be devised.

I am very happy with the results of an injection in my lower spine by Dr. Apicella to alleviate pain in my back and legs. I can now stand for over ten minutes without being in severe pain.
