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 Doctor

I recently had an exceptional telehealth experience with Dr. Richard Gasalberti, MD, at his Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation practice in New York. From the moment our virtual appointment began, I was impressed by the seamless and efficient process. Dr. Gasalberti’s professionalism and expertise were immediately evident, even through a screen. He took the time to thoroughly understand my medical history and current concerns, making me feel heard and valued as a patient. His diagnosis was precise, and his treatment plan was both comprehensive and tailored to my specific needs.Throughout our telehealth visits, Dr. Gasalberti demonstrated genuine care and empathy, ensuring that I felt comfortable and informed about every step of my rehabilitation process. The entire team at the clinic was equally attentive and efficient, contributing to a seamless virtual experience. Their coordination and support made the telehealth process smooth and effective.

Dr G is the best
I’ve been a patient of Dr Gasalberti’s for 6 years now. He is an excellent doctor. His office atmosphere is comfortable. His office manager is amazing. I’ve been to see other Drs but no one compares to Dr Gasalberti.

Great staff and Great service
I have had several visits to Dr Gasalberti’s office in the past weeks and have been very happy with him and his staff. Today I had a procedure done at his other location and was very impressed with the facility, the staff and of course the Dr and his team!

Dr. Gasalberti has been my Dr. for many years now. I have a chronic condition that has caused other problems yet he has always been one to know what test, therapy or referral is needed to get his patient pointed in the right direction. Totally confident in his knowledge of any pain or concern I may have had and never disappointed in his quality of care. His office staff is also very friendly and organized and on top of any appts, questions and paperwork that the patient may need.

Knowledgeable Doctor & excellent staff you will not go wrong. I seen him in the past with a great experience & now I have another issue so I returned & will again in future if need be. Some complain about his dictating to his recorder & call it mumbling, which may seem weird to you, but that is for his records and he knows what he's saying. Some people complain about wait time but its just like anywhere else some days are great and some not so great but you will get seen in a timely fashion. A +

My experience with Dr. Gasalberti is that he is a phenomenal doctor he cares about his patients and he is very interested in ithere Health. He is a professional who knows exactly what he's doing. I would recommend Dr. Gasaburti to anyone who is having back or Knee problems. He is the kind of doctor that makes you feel comfortable about every procedure that he does and explains it to you. I would rate Dr. Gasalberti from a 1 to 10 He is a 20.
