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.

Dr. Oristian
Attentive, caring, compassionate, and professional staff.

Caring Physician
The appointment was efficiently completed. I saw Dr. Oristian for the first time and he gave an excellent exam. The other staff in the office were courteous and helpful.

4 times the charm?
After 3rd surgery on my poor mother, there's still problems. Now wants to do a redo! How many times does it take to do the job right? She is now preparing for a 4th surgery.

Completely messed up surgery appointment
I had an appointment scheduled 2 weeks in advance for 9am, they confirmed the day before and said show up at 7, and when I showed up at the hospital they said my appointment was for 1. The nurse at the hospital confirmed that other patients from this office are having appointment struggles, and when I called the office the scheduling person was nice at first until I called her out for blaming the hospital on the scheduling problem.

Dr. Orisitian and his staff are absolutely amazing. I was diagnosed with breast cancer and Dr. Oristian performed my surgery. He is an excellent surgeon so I had excellent results. But his humanity is what makes him (and his staff) extraordinary. Everyone there is so kind, compassionate, and extremely patient. I felt comfortable in their care throughout the entire process. They were never too busy to answer questions and I felt very taken care of.

Dr. Oristian and his staff are outstanding. I had hernia surgery in January of 2019. Dr. Oristian was caring, compassionate, and explained the risks and benefits of the surgery. I had little pain thanks to following the pain treatment protocol he gave me. I had a little bleeding at the site when I went home but Dr. Oristian called me several times that day and evening to make sure I was ok and he made time for me in this office the following morning to see me in person to ensure there were no problems. I cannot highly recommend him and his staff enough!

Dr Oristian performed my surgery for breast cancer, and follow-up. I am very much pleased with the care he has given. He made me feel confident that I would get good care. He has a great bedside manner and a good sense of humor. His office is clean and homey. And his staff is superb! I highly recommend Dr Oristian.

Dr. Oristian and his staff are the best. It's a very calming office. Everyone is very professional. I had a double mastectomy by this dr and he made me very comfortable and relaxed for my surgery. He didnt rush anything with me. He has an awesome bedside manner. I love the fact that you dont have to speak to an answering service to reach him. He has his phone right on him and HE answers every time my daughter called him. They are very timely with your appt time. I highly recommend them!

Dr.Oristian is knowledgeable, kind and caring. He explains things well and welcome questions from patient. I had a sebaceous cyst just under my abdominal skin and he removed it in Holy Cross Hospital. No bleeding, no pain or discomfort after the surgery. Surgery scar is extremely minimal.

Terrible patient care. I had an infected post-operation wound that completely reopened and they left me no emergency number. They were never available to answer my calls or schedule a sooner appointment. When I finally had an appointment, he told me I should have come earlier even after I told him my multiple attempts to call him. He did not offer any additional support and didn't even give me any more bandages, despite the $40 co-pay every visit.

Dr. Oristian was fantastic. When faced with a large nodule on my thyroid that had cancerous potential, he was calm and reassuring, and was frank with me when I asked questions about the prognosis. Highly recommended. Going back to him next week to address lipoma growth on my shoulder.
