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 Niccolai did orthoscopic surgery on my knee. He was reluctant to operate until we were sure it would not heal without surgery. The surgery fixed the issue and allowed me to run again. Great experience.

Doctor Niccolai was very pleasant and attentive. He asked questions, checked for pain and treated my condition. He took the time to answer all my questions and gave me helpful information. His staff was also very professional.

Has no respect or even a basic concern for his patients. The worst medical experience I have encountered in my life. Considers himself too important to be bothered. Does not communicate unless he thinks it will benefit him. Do not make the mistake of having yourself or your loved ones be abused by his non-care. I do not believe he has any empathy for his patients or actually cares about their medical condition or suffering. A disgrace to his profession.
