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 treated my husband. Was excellent. Very compassionate. We went to Sloan-Kettering for second opinion and they said her DX and tx were spot on and they would've done exact same. She respected my husband's fears and never pushed him into anything he didn't want.

There were no timely appointments available. My mother had a second lumpectomy when she would have chosen the mastectomy. After suffering a hematoma and blood clot she recovered. When finally getting an appointment, she followed up the same day with a bone density test. Results were sent the same day to Dr. Demarco yet she did not follow up nor did her office return the first message left on the machine. 2 1/2 weeks after the test, my mother is still unable to get through the robotic phone

This Dr. is horrible. Uncaring. She is told what I tell you, when you ask questions, very vague in answers. For an oncologist she is very informative. She sways back and forth with her answers. She insist on unnecessary meds and procedures which delays chemo time. When you call the office for an emergency, you get told no answers and just go to the er. No help from the dr's. Wouldnt send a dog here or to her.
