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, de francesco has been my md for 15 years .
He is warm caring doctor. I have had irritable bowel for many years. His suggestions were appreciated and very helpful. I have had at least 4 colonoscopys.. He made sure we spoke beforehand and after procedure, So I like him,

I was assigned Dr. DeFrancisco by Saratoga Hospital Emergency Room two years ago for chest pain and stomach pain, I can't tell you the amount of visits to him or the emergency room but as of today I am still suffering in pain and Dr. DeFrancisco's answer to me is "it's in your head", this I was told as I was down 30 lbs from no appetite and pain, I asked if he thought I could have Cancer? "NO" his response, well at the age of 53 I have cancer, and Dr. DeFrancisco will take my call. KARMA!
