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 absolute best!!!
He is an excellent infectious disease doctor. The best in the Tri state area. His bedside manner and his professionalism his second to none. He treated me for a very rare infection a few years ago that the top doctor in New York City was quick to miss diagnose. I am forever grateful to Dr Neil Gaffin and highly recommend him.

Dr. Gaffin has no concern for the actual humans he treats. He will leave your exam room and forget about you two seconds later. He is rude, impatient, and condescending at every turn. He cares very little about what you have to say and he cares even less whether you and your loved ones live or die.
