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.

Amazing !
Had my consultation exam with Dr.Sconzo which I was extremely nervous about. His amazing staff was super friendly, very accommodating,very compassionate , what more can you ask for when going to see a doctor for the first time. His assistant “Hailey” is amazing, she went above and beyond to make sure all my medical needs were taken care of, I can’t thank you enough. I have yet to meet such a caring ,helpful individual as your self. Met Dr.Sconzo, he made me feel very extremely comfortable , listen to all my concerns and explained the best medical plan for myself which I can’t thank him enough. Its hard in the times we live in to find someone that will listen and treat people the way they should be treated and for that I’m extremely grateful. This medial Office is the best. ! I would recommend this office 1000%

This dude couldn’t tell an apple from an orange. Came across as a busy, arrogant know it all. I don’t need a doc with good bedside manner, but I expect them to be able to confirm a (somewhat common) diagnosis that’s in their specialization. The PA who referred me isn’t in this specialization but made the correct diagnosis. He laughed it off, saying no way, and ended up referring me to a urologist for something that didn’t exist, no symptoms or problems to suggest what he did.... 16 days later, went to the ER because it was getting notably worse, and said I think it is this...., what the PA said, they did bloodwork and a quick scan and were like yep. He said if it got worse to come back. I wasn’t in the area, but if I was I would have gone elsewhere.

Love Dr. Sconzo. My name is Marilyn Nye. I suffered from diverticulitis for 5 years. Dr. Sconzo's friendly consultation gave me the confidence to get much needed surgery. He always showed loving care before, during and after surgery. Thank you for giving me a better quality of life. His staff is also friendly and helpful. Dr. Sconzo made me feel like family.

Very long wait time but staff was courteous. I regret not consulting a second opinion. Saw him for what appeared to be a cyst and was told he didn’t even know what it could be, but that I’d need to schedule an operation and be put under the next day. Within hours of my first visit it had responded to antibiotics and felt like it was clearing up, but I went in the following day to get it drained in the hospital. Hope surgery truly was the best option and there are no future complications

If you're suffering from having a chronic fissure in Ano, save time (being in pain) and money and see another doctor. Over two weeks wait time for appointment. When I did get to see the doctor he confirmed what I knew already, that I did indeed have a fissure. I was sent to a local pharmacy that makes the doctors magic ointment and directed to take a fiber supplement. Weeks later still same immense pain. I visited new doctor in Nassau, was taken care of properly and felt better within no time.

I recently went to see Dr Sconzo and was a little apprehensive at first, do to the nature of the visit, but once my exam began he made me feel at ease. He explained everything in layman terms and was personable. Dr Sconzo was professional and gave me the feeling that he really cared. I have seen many doctors over the years and my experience with him was one of the best. I would definitely recommend him

I didn't end up keeping my appointment because both the office manager and another woman I spoke with on the phone to make the appointment were rude. When I told the woman she was being short with me as well as the office manager, she said they are told what to say. I responded there's a way to say things in a nice way. Then she said I can let the dr. know. At that point I cancelled my appt.
