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 went to the ER due to lack of blood flow in my leg. Dr Defrancisco admitted me to the hospital, started me on a heavy anticoagulent but refused to treat me other than that because I did not like his partner at the time. He was rude and condescending. I feel like I knew more about my vascular issues than he did. One of the first things he asked me was when I would be getting an amputation, which had never been discussed. I would recommend staying away from him. Having him as an attending was a horrible experience.

Just a fantastic doctor, knew what he was doing, got to the problem, made me feel at ease, easy on the eyes, lol easy to talk to and answer the questions you have. Didn’t have you going through one test after another, he knew what the problem was. Operation is over and I feel great!
