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.

worse doctor
Dr. Gonzalez is obviously overwhelmed. Him and his staff do not return calls, nor do they acknowledge that they have received calls. Do not expect them to do anything for you if you fall ill in the hospital. this group has changed and i will be looking for a better group.

Dr.Gonzalez is a great doctor from his excellent treatment, curiosity, investigative mind and ability to connect, you know where you stand immediately. He is an excellent communicator and very personable. My best experience so far... You can tell that he is very passionate and loves his work. He’s very understanding and listens to your concerns. He takes time with the patient to help them with their health issues! I never feel rushed, and he always asks if I have any other questions. My best experience so far… I will highly recommend Dr. Gonzalez to my family and friends.

This doctor is one of the coldest doctors I've ever seen. I was denied a refill on a prescription because of an imaginary second refill that never took place. Then I was denied the same medication because I took a different medication for a few days 4 months ago. His representative did not tell him I needed refills for 2 weeks because she had a personal grudge against me. You can only make an appointment by leaving a message and hoping that someone will return your call. If you're given the Telehealth meeting be prepared for not being called.

Dr. Gonzales does not care about his patients. He is careless and his office staff behaves exactly the same way. They never return calls and never respond to any emails. They are absolutely unprofessional and rude.

I highly recommend Dr. González; He is an excellent professional; a caring person. I’m so glad I did my research and decided to see him as my primary physician and my husbands too. He spends enough time with me, explained very well my conditions and the right treatment; also answered all my questions and concerns . His office staff is also very professional, kind and caring; if you live in North Jersey and are looking for an excellent physician Dr. Abel González is the Best !
