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.

I have no idea if Dr. Sanzone is even aware of what's happening in his office. If he is, shame on him for failing to follow the "no harm" Doctors oath. My son was refered to him by Sharp ER. Called to get a appointment time and was told they don't take insurance. Called insurance and told "yes he's under contract with us". Called back and was basically told the insurance doesn't pay enough so they won't see him. Now I have to try and get another referal wasting precious time.

Dr. Sanzone took care of my 92 year old father at Sharp Memorial Hospital. After a very discouraging report from a hospitalist, leaving us with little hope.....Dr. Sanzone came in and was encouraging and positive. He was awesome and did an amazing job with the surgery on my dad! My father is doing very well thanks to Dr. Sanzone. Thank you Dr. !!! I don't know anything about his office/hours/staff etc. but his work at the hospital was wonderful

I went to doctor's office for ankle fracture. Time and again we were told by doctor's office that doctor is in-network provider for my insurance. I found on the day of surgery that that's not the case. I was forced to cancel my surgery the day of, and had to scramble to find other orthopedic surgeon. It delayed my surgery, and I have to pay another doctor for the same service again. Doctor's office refused to return money for a mistake of their own. They care more about money than patient care!

Dr. Sanzone, is amazing. He let me know all of my options, and what the procedures would entail. Ultimately we decided on surgery. I have minimal scarring. i feel like he is honest, and trustworthy. He didnt push anything I didnt need. His nurses and office staff are professional friendly. My Surgery was about a month ago, and I have already referred 2 other people. Thanks Dr Sanzone. You're the best.

I was treated as a trauma patient at Sharp Memorial Hospital. He was very kind, nice bedside manner for all the injuries I had. I was disappointed after my one year of being a trauma patient and I no longer could see him. I highly recommend him as he is a great surgeon, but didn't like the fact I couldn't go back after one year.
