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. Pinto is an exceptional cardiologist!
I have found that Dr. Pinto is meticulous in my cardiovascular health plan. During the past two years, he has exhibited a high skill of listening to me and then explaining how it is best to proceed with my health care. Dr. Pinto is extremely focused on preventing cardiovascular patient issues and has the patient empathy that makes me comfortable. I highly recommend Dr. Pinto for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular health.

Very bad experience, made an appointment weeks in advance since they are booked up. Took the day off work for the appointment and get there to find out someone didn’t actually put the appointment in the computer so no appointment. Staff was not even apologetic about it, instead says well it’s not my fault. So waiting months and still not able to see the doctor, and dealt with rude receptionist. Not a pleasant experience. Dr Pinto might get a really good doctor but I wouldn’t know since his staff is not helpful or friendly and does not take responsibility for internal mistakes.

I was squeezed in as a new patient last minute. He was very prompt and even more thorough. He even personally consulted with another specialist that I had seen the day prior and together they made a plan. I felt like I left understanding his thoughts and the work up and was absolutely not rushed at all!

I have been seen by Dr. Pinto for more than 10 years and have been extremely pleased with the care that he had provided for me. It take a little while to get to know him but I have complete confidence in his knowledge and abilities. He is also willing to ask for a second opinion when he wants to verify his findings, which I very much appreciated.

Dr Pinto is a terrific doctor. It's ironic that as a heart patient I get more stress dealing with the office staff than getting a root canal. Perhaps they should all work for a proctoligist, if you get my drift. Unfortunately they have the inability to be proactive, flexible or even courteous. They seem to believe I'm an insurance company professional who is well versed on procedures and protocol. That's what they get paid to do! Regrettably, I will be leaving this doctor as a result of it..

Dr Pinto is a thorough professional. He always takes the time to answer my questions and explain what is happening with my condition. I have been seeing him for about three years now and I literally have been trusting my life to his care. He has not let me down.

Dr. Pinto and the entire Palatine Heart Center staff are caring and compassionate. When I had concerns recently, they scheduled me to see the doctor the same day. Dr. Pinto is a wonderful listener and addressed my concerns thoughtfully. Everyone from his front desk staff, office manager, nurses, and nurse practitioner have provided me with wonderful customer service and patient care.

The office staff from the front desk to the office manager are rude. I have been screamed at in the exam room by one of the staff members and she said she didn't want to talk to me and walked out and slammed the door. All because she claims she was not the person that gave the wrong information and suggested that since they dropped the ball with not calling in a prescription for me that I should take my old meds, even though they caused severe side effects.

I went in for a routine stress test and found out I needed open heart surgery. Dr. Pinto was extremely knowledgeable and helpful throughout the whole process. He recommended an expert surgeon for what I needed and along with his practitioner, provided supportive follow-up care.

I have the utmost confidence in Dr. Pinto as my Cardiologist. I have been a patient of his for over the past 5 years. He has thoroughly explained to me my medical conditions and the therapy I shall be receiving from him for those conditions. He never rushes me through my appointments and takes the time to listen to my concerns and answers any questions I may have. His staff has been very good and will work with me to arrange my appointments. I would highly recommend Dr. Pinto.

One should know when you walk into a waiting room and there's a chill between staff, perhaps one should just turn around and leave. Also, Dr. Pinto had a diagnosis that was a really bad one and he had his PA call me with it. Well, I presume his PA (she's the only one I'd recommend for anything - kind, helpful) It turned out to be wrong, but, nonetheless.
