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.

Best choice for oncologist
Dr Mclaughlin is caring, compassionate and competent...a trifecta! He took time to answer questions, we had a lot, explain options, there were several, and set us up to complete the process to start our choice for chemotherapy. His staff is also caring and very efficient and effective at getting things done for their patients. Within one week of getting a final diagnosis we started chemotherapy. Have never regretted choosing Dr Mclaughlin as our oncologist.

He is very kind and smart.
He always gives us updates on any new information he has. He is also willing to give treatment options that best fit our situation. Dr. Reale had the police take my license away so I have no way to go to any Dr appointments etc.

I have been seeing him since May for Breast Cancer. He is wonderful. He explains everything in detail. When I first meet with him, I was so freaked out about my diagnosis. I went in there thinking I need meds to handle the anxiety I was having. When I left the appt, I felt as ease, based on his explanation, being kind and he takes his time to talk to you. Very detailed and Kind! Every time I see him, I am so happy with the way I am treated personally and professionally. He walks into the room knowing everything about you. I can't say enough about him and the staff at RCCA. I would not hesitate to have him as my doctor.

I have been under Dr McLaughlin care for two years, he has been outstanding with his manner, skills and concerns about my well being during this difficult time. He is giving me a quantity and quality of life well beyond my original expectations. He never gives up on extending my life. I know he will always be truthful and work relentlessly to ensure I'm getting the best medical care available. He is the most caring, knowledgeable individual and I am so happy he is my doctor.

My daughter was a patient for about 3 months she complained about stomach pain since she started his clinical trial he just said it was a lymph node and no worries well after about 3 months she had another scan and was told there was nothing else he could do. he sent her back to her oncologist. He is cold and only cares about the TRIAL AND NOT THE PATIENT if it stops working then too bad go home and DIE well Dr just to let you know she did we burried her on the 31st. SHAME ON YOU FOR NOT CARIN
