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 have been going to Dr. Civtarese and his brother, Louis (and his father before them) since I was in my early 20s; I'm now in my mid-sixties. Frank (and Lewis) is one of the few people I trust. He is straight-forward, honest, compassionate, and hands-on. He spends time to speak with me, he knows my history, and he sees me not a client, but as another human being. Both Drs. Civtarese cared for my mother, saving her life on a few occasions and doing what they could to ensure she maintained the best quality of life and dignity, even during her last few days. In a world that's all process, abstraction, and customer surveys, Dr. Frank is a beacon for what a family physician should be and is.
