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.

The best hepatologist
Telehealth
Dr Cesario is the best hepatologist i could have ever asked for-- kind, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable. She tailors her care to my specific issues. I never feel like 'just a number' and she makes use of every minute of our appointment to not only include me in the care plan, but also to explain test results and my condition.

Absolutely outstanding! Dr Cesario is not only knowledgeable, but compassionate and respectful, as well. She took the time to listen to my concerns, helped navigate adjustments in medications, and made me feel at ease. Having had colon cancer two times, as well as major complications from gall bladder surgery, I am quite anxious when it comes to procedures. Dr Cesario respected my concerns and helped me feel comfortable. I can’t recommend her highly enough.

Recently had a colonoscopy and was very pleased with the care received. I realize doctors and staff are very busy but it was very refreshing that Dr. Cesario took the time to explain all and did not rush with her explanations. Would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Cesario and the staff for any gastroenterology problems.
