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.

Talented Compassionate Surgeon
Dr. Val Prokurat, MD of NJ Advanced Surgical Solutions was fantastic! He is a talented surgeon that used the daVinci Robotic Surgery System to repair my hernia. He explained everything about the surgery, was compassionate, and his follow-up was great. Highly recommend.

Exceptional and caring surgeon
I had gastric bypass and hernia repair surgery with Dr. Prokurat over 8 years ago and he is by far the most competent and caring surgeon I have ever experienced. I felt completely confident going into the surgery because he took the time to carefully explain everything and answer my questions. His post-surgery care was exceptional and the followup over the years shows he truly cares for each of his patients. I am looking at another possible abdominal surgery (unrelated) and even though I've moved and he is over an hour away now, I wouldn't consider another surgeon.

Dr. Prokurat performed my gastric sleeve surgery on December 3rd, 2020. He is an exceptional care giver, experienced, and above all committed to his patient’s health. My surgery was done flawlessly and I have had a smooth recovery. In less than one month I lost 30 lbs, I took back control over my life, I am adapting to a healthier lifestyle, unlearning old habits, and reclaiming the health and happiness lost from neglecting myself for so many years. Thank you, Dr. Prokurat and his amazing staff!

If you are looking for a surgeon who truly cares about his patients, then Dr. Prokurat is that man. He is so caring and truly cares about his patients. I would trust Dr. Prokurat with my own child. I had surgery in September and afterward I had questions. Dr. Prokurat called me back each and every time I called and spent as much time as I needed with him until he was sure I was comfortable. I would recommend him to anyone I know.

I would highly recommend Dr. Prokurat after witnessing his care of my 80 year old mother while in ICU. He removed her diseased gallbladder and worked with her team of doctors to get her back to a healthy state. He was kind, compassionate, gave personal attention and had a terrific bed side manner.
