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.

Absolutely amazing!
Dr. C was very quick to determine a problem and solve it! Pleasant, fast thinker with excellent bed side manners. Great experience! Highly recommend! Thank you, Dr Mandy!

BEST EVER!!!
Dr. Mandy is THE BEST! She is the definition of a doctor who cares and goes above and beyond for her patients. I have never had a doctor that is more thorough and makes sure she does not leave a stone unturned! I am so sad that she is leaving my current clinic. I wish I could follow her wherever she goes! If you have the chance to be under her care, you are truly in the best hands. I will miss you doc!!!

Would rather have a patient die than treat them
She is probably the second worst Doctor I have encountered in my life. Doesn't read previous diagnosis, doesn't listen and doesn't like being incorrect. No bed side manner. Just in it for the $$

Doctor Amanda Caparso, I'm really sorry for the patients, who trust you and want to get help from you. This Doctor is not expert at all. I took my child to her to get referral to a psychiatrist, while she knew he has mental illness, but she treated my son very bad, embarrassed him and started arguing with him disrespectfully. I was shocked how a doctor can mistreat someone with this situation instead of earning his trust to go to a specialist.

Went for a regular checkup, came out with a new med regimen, referrals to the correct Drs and loving my new Dr. She is compassionate, listens to all of your concerns (which is huge for someone that is overweight, no pun intended lol), and works with you to see what would be the best outcome. I'm so glad this is my new Dr.

I very recently lost my mother and Dr. Caparso was her doctor in the hospital. I was not familiar with an internist and wish I had gone to her for a second opinion on her having the surgery done. That being said, she got us through the complications that ensued and clearly but compassionately spelled out our options for every procedure. So caring and willing to be contacted and knew what to say to ease our guilt and second guessing. She is a gift to the medical community and any patient.

She is bright, kind and compassionate. In my case, she diagnosed the problem and got me the appropriate treatment (surgery). I couldn't be more pleased.
