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.

Great care
Colonoscopy at Beaufort Memorial and as a retired nurse, I was happy with the care and the doctor offering to answer as many questions as I wanted before procedure. Loved the thorough report he wrote that I was given post procedure along with his visit to tell his findings.

Excellent Provider
Had a colonoscopy procedure done by this provider at the Beaufort Memorial Surgery Center. Besides their wonderful staff, was assigned this provider as the performing physician. He was very pleasant and explained beforehand and also provided great information post operatively.

Closed Abruptly And Relocated To South Carolina
Just found Dr. Michael Sciarra has relocated to Beaufort, South Carolina. He has joined a group with Beaufort Memorial Hospital as of July 5, 2023. Absolutely no notice to any of his patients or where we can get our medical records. If anyone has any further information please post here or to any other review boards. SO MUCH FOR A NICE GUY!!!

Not recommend him , HORRIBLE
I had a weight loss surgery done in 20017 and was recommended to have a endoscopy done cause I’m having stomach issues, i call Dr Sciarra’s office in September to make an appointment , as he was the one that did the first and only Colonoscopy I had ever done in my life , wish was 3 1/2 years ago , so they gave me an appointment for January 2023, after waiting for it for 4 months, they call me a week before the appointment and rescheduled me for February, I was upset cause I was waiting for 4 months, when again they call me , that they had to reschedule me for April, by this time I was really mad, so I I told them it was ridiculous to make me wait 6 months to see the doctor , when I was telling them that I needed an Endoscopy cause I was having issues due to my sleeve surgery, and that I was a long time patient, so at the end , they said he couldn’t see me at all cause after 3 years I was considered a new patient, hello! Colonoscopy is done every 5 years, 0 Consideration for patients

I urge you to change this doctor. I believe he got his medical degree out of a Cracker Jack box. My mom was sick since March. She eventually had to go to the hospital and now I am going to her funeral on Wednesday. He is not a caring doctor more like an uncaring quack. He had no idea what the problem with my mom was. Not once did he come to the hospital to see her.

Horrible office staff who would put you on hold for almost 30 minutes. They failed to reschedule my surgery and forgot to send my prescription before the surgery. Really hard to get hold of someone from his office.

My experience with Dr. Sciarra has been excellent. I have been a patient of his for over 16 years. He follows up with his patients after procedures. I WOULD rather have him as my primary care physician...

My parents are both patients of Dr Sciarra's and he is a lifesaver! They are both skittish about going to the doctor. They have been patients of his now for about two years and he has helped them tremendously. Wonderful doctor, great office. Very pleased!

Very bad expereince and still dealing with it. Has a large chip on his shoulder , full of attitude. Spent 2 minutes with me and didnt want explain anything. Was more intrested in peddling his branded Probotics...They messed up the billing big time and every time I call the office, they dont respond or care to fix the billing. They are just too busy taking in new patients and dont care to fix the billing errors Im dealing with ...the pain continues...on the phone daily...

I was sick for about 4 weeks when my GP advised that I should see a GI specialist. I contacted Dr. Sciarra's office in Secaucus and was told that I would have to wait 3-4 weeks for an appointment there, but as I was so ill, they gave me an immediate appointment in the Edgewater office. Wanda, who made the schedule was wonderful! I waited for about 15 minutes when the doctor came in. Within 10 minutes, I had the first appointment for an endoscopy the next morning. I was healed!

Terrible experience! I went to him as an emergency patient in need of an endoscopy and I was scheduled 4 weeks out! My condition worsened and I ended up being hospitalized. Dr Sciarra was notified, he was supposed to do the endoscopy the following day of me being admitted, he was a no show then later on called saying he was too busy the entire week and couldn't perform the endoscopy on me at all. My PCP had to find me another GI doctor to do it. Shows how much Dr Sciarra cares about his patients
