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.

Dr Lico was top notch in helping me get my surgery completed in a timely manner. He was not in a rush and took the time to sincerely answer our questions and explain procedures.

Dr Lico preformed by triple by-pass operation. I felt confident about the surgery after consultation. The operation took about 3.5 hours. Though I am on the road to recovery I thank God for guiding Dr Lico’s hand To allow me to return to my family....

As his patient at Holy Spirit, I was wronged. During heart valve repair surgery- full sternotomy- he made two mistakes. He used too small of a ring to support my Mitral valve, restricting blood flow. He also misplaced a pacemaker wire in my Tricuspid valve, preventing it from closing. Unable to function normally, I sought a second opinion from another hospital and successfully survived a second sternotomy after 9 months. Dr. Lico mysteriously disappeared while I was still under his care.

During a failed bypass in February 2016 as a "Director" at the Camp Hill Geisinger Ortenzio Heart Center at Holy Spirit Hospital, he tore my mammary artery. He tried to sew it up but it would not pass flow. I then had to have a stent put in. In a period before my surgery, Lico had a 14% failure rate on this kind of operation compared to better doctors with 2-4% failure rate. He's mediocre at best. His last words to me were "I could do this operation eating a donut". I think he tried.
