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.

He shamed me instead of helping me
I had a spinal fusion performed by Dr Implicito. At my 1 year post-op visit when I told him that I was still experiencing a lot of pain he told me that I needed to get off of the pain medication. If he had done a CT scan he would have seen that my fusion was unsuccessful. I spent the next 4 years thinking that my increasing pain was something that could be overcome and that it was my fault. The screws that had been placed in my spine during the surgery were grinding away at healthy bone, doing more and more damage. I wish that I had never met this doctor. He caused me years of extra pain and self doubt. I spent those years unable to work, without the support of disability or my surgeon. My experience with this doctor is shameful and disgusting. I hope that he never does this to anyone else.

Absolutely the best spine surgeon
I can not praise or thank Dr Implicito enough. He is an exceptional surgeon and a great person who gave me a new lease on life. I was in extreme pain, unable to walk with a lumbar bulging disc and stenosis. He is absolutely the best out there and his staff is equally as professional. I highly recommend Dr Implicito. The care at Hackensack University Medical Center was exceptional as well.

I am a new patient with back pain. Dr. Implicito came highly recommended. My appointment went well Dr. Implicito listened to me and did not make me feel rushed. He is ordering an MRI for me to see what is the cause of my constant pain.

I’ve had great experiences with Dr. Implicito. He’s compassionate, takes time to listen to questions and concerns, and he’s a hell of a surgeon. Gave me a new lease on life after my back surgery, and it’s hard to trust anyone else with such a delicate area.

Dr. Implicito is an excellent doctor. I have had horrible back pain for 6 months. I have received multiple injections by other doctors into different areas which were not successful. What's great about Dr. Implicito is he takes his time and gives a very thorough physical exam. Also, he is not a report doctor. He actually reviewed all the MRIs and tests himself and noticed something the other doctor and radiologist didn't. By getting the correct diagnosis, he was able to give me an injection that worked very well. I highly recommend him!

I recently was referred to dr. Implicito because I was suffering from severe sciatica pain from herniated discs, stenosis, arthritis and bulging discs. I had three prior epidurals over a two year period with another spine specialist. I have nothing but praise for Dr. Implicito. He is a wonderful, professional man with a great staff. He tried to avoid surgery but my situation mandated surgery. I highly recommend Dr. Implicito. Hackensack Hospital gave me great care. I was up and walking sam

Dr Implicito is knowledgeable, competent, compassionate and professional. He truly cares about his patients and took the time to explain my condition and treatment options thoroughly. He was able to get me into a great physical therapist which made a huge difference in relieving my pain more quickly. I wish all doctors were this competent.
