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.

Dr Brungo helped one of my feet by removing a toenail. The experience was great and my recovery went as planned.

Good foot Doctor
I went there one time and have another appointment. He is very nice and knows what he is doing. He helped me with my foot problem right away. Has a lot of patience and cares about his work.

My entire family has been going to him for over 30 years. He has earned tremendous respect from the Podiatric Surgeons he has referred me to in the past. He’s the best. VERY DISAPPOINTED that two patients rated him low because of scheduling and the demeanor of A person(s) on his office staff. I want ratings based ON THE DOCTOR HIMSELF. It might be a good time for those two low raters to “buy a vowel” as all of his other ratings are 5-Star Mike Benko Ross Twp

The Doctor was very respectful, and seemed very well versed, but on more than one occasion I was very disappointed by the disrespectful and patronizing attitude of the office staff and nurse.

I decided to move my business elsewhere after being bumped for more important patients I guess. Arrival after me was taken before me even though we were scheduled for the same time. I guess not all patients are created equal.
