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.

Good Guy and Doctor
Spends time, doesn't rush me. He's been very helpful with a chronic skin condition.

I have been seeing Dr. Patrignelli for a number of years and he has been nothing but professional. He is very detailed in his review of any issues on your body. He addresses some issue immediately and also takes samples for review as needed. I am also very pleased with his staff from check in, room for examination and checkout. A very positive annual experience for health review.

This guy is, in my opinion, is the biggest joke I have ever come across in the medical field. My visit lasted about 3 minutes, from when he walked in to when he left. Totally disappointed. He then had to brag that he saw 70 patients per day. And his elbows were distorted because he leans on them all day. Then he prescribed a cream that he said won’t work, but use it anyway, why prescribe it? Stay away from this guy, Georgetown University or not. Definitely not worth your troubles.

I visited this doctor six years ago for a pedicure for my feet. His response was to pull and twist my toes and cut deep. The result was many hammer toes, neuromas and peripheral neuropathy. I've been suffering ever since then. My advice is to file complaints with the Department of Public Health and the police if you have also been a pain victim. Only if victims go the authorities can the public be protected.

The Dr and his staff are great. if the TVs too loud they can turn it down. But you can’t sit underneath the TV and not expect to hear it. Also I brought my grandson since they were one years old to Dr Patrignelli he found three different diseases that he had no the doctor could find. As a parent it’s up to us to make the kids comfortable going to a doctor. Because this doctor is the mild manner very knowledgeable. Stop The bashing.

Fox News blasting in the waiting room is alienating to many people. You should consider putting something neutral on your TV.

Do not go to this doctor. He treated my 6 year old son for a short while and left my son traumatized and afraid to go to a doctor. I don't know how his license has not been revoked. Stay away!!!!

DO NOT GO TO THIS DOCTOR! I got the worse staph infection that left me hospitalized after a small biopsy in his office. I was left with thousands of dollars in hospital bills when he failed to give me antibiotics when I went in to see him about my infection. He is negligent and causes infection for his patients and his staff is not helpful in discussing your bills and will deny that anyone is in the office to discuss or assist you when you call. They still made pay my full bill.

I have been seeing Dr Patrignelli since the late 1990's. He has treated me for a number of term situations. Over the past several years, I have had several cancers identified and treated by Dr. P. He is an extremely thorough guy......I don't think he misses one inch on his examinations. He is extremely outgoing and explains everything to you! Would recommend (and have) in a heartbeat. I travel about 25 miles to see him each way for my twice a year body check and for treatments.

Horrible experience. They messed up the billing, would not allow you to speak to the Office Manager Mel, kept leaving messages, no return calls. Dr. screwed up treatment on top it. Just a horrible place to do business. I have filed a report with the Office of Public health.

Terrible. Took our son there for acne. He pops a couple pimples and calls it surgery and then hits us for $190 that the insurance won't pay. Talked with staff, absolutely no help. Took him to another doctor only to find that he was over prescribing the mediation putting my son at risk for pancreas problems and not ordering follow up blood work that is standard to the medication. Rude and Dangerous is not a good combination in a practice.
