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.

She is incompetent and lazy. She barely walks into the room and for a physical does not do a complete exam. I had to ask her to listen to my heart and it took her ten minutes to say I had a heart murmur and she couldn't even explain what it was. She was literally like "the way the heart works is...uh". And she was no help in my follow-up care in finding the right cardiologist. If you want a misdiagnosis, go to her, because that's all you'll get.

Dr. Petrungaro is fantastic. She takes time with you and listens to you, respecting that you know what is going on and using that information to advise you on your health. She is focused on keeping me healthy and is accessible through messaging in MyChart any time. She is very prompt in getting back to me. I could not possible be more satisfied with her professionalism, care and interest in my health.

Dr.Petrungaro has been providing care for my 88yr. Old Mother for a number of years. My Mom feels and receives the best medical care from Dr. Petrungaro and staff. Her office is well managed, clean and comfortable waiting area. If you need a good Dr., and if she's accepting new patients, I would definitely contact her office.

This is the first time I have ever felt compelled to write a review, on anything/anyone. I cannot say enough about how great Dr Petrungaro is. My very first visit with her I felt comfortable and heard. I have since seen her twice and have communicated multiple times via mychart. She is very easy to contact and always responds in a timely manner. It is hard to find a Dr that is brilliant AND human; I work in the health care field and know a lot of Doctors. Dr Petrungaro is 1 in a million.

Dr. Petrungaro is excellent!! She was extremely diligent, knowledgeable and caring re: my husband Gary's medical condition. She was responsive and kept in close communication with us. She was invested and involved in finding the correct diagnosis and treatment options for my husband. Because of Dr. Petrungaro's integrity, concern and excellence, my husband and I are both switching over from our family doctor to Dr. Petrungaro as our primary care physician.

Dr. Petrungaro, without a doubt is a caring medical professional. Without fail she always returns my correspondences to her, via MyChart, within 24 hours. When I have a personal consult with her, she always spends more than adequate time with me and listens very carefully to my concerns. When she feels there is a question that she cannot resolve or answer she is prompt to referring me to a qualified specialist. I wish more medical professionals were as diligent as she.
