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 would give them a 10 star
They listen to your concerns and very passionate to the patient

Excellent Doctor
Dr. Squatrito has been a wonderful doctor. He has excellent bedside manner and was wonderful to me and my family when I battled cancer. He has been thoughtful and a breath of fresh air during every visit. I am truly going to miss him as is one of a kind. Best wishes on a well-deserved retirement.

Professional Dr office
I had a hysterectomy a couple of months ago and the surgery went well. The doctor and staff were great in explaining the process. If I have a concern, the staff has addressed it in a timely matter. The only thing I suggest is the staff giving outcomes of post surgery. I have had a rough recovery but was not aware how rough it would be. It would be helpful to pair a patient with professional whom can assist with post surgery

Dr Squatrito and team are straight from heaven
This team of life savers is genuinely concerned and dedicated.. from the front desk to the NPs to the scheduling ( thanks Casey!!) who stayed an hour late and came in and hour early to get approvals needed to expedite my surgery….you know you are in the right place when the Doctor, the staff, techs, NPs , PAs , insurance people are all at the top of their game.. other places could learn from them bc they are the yardstick to be measured against.

Simply the absolute best of the very best.
WRT the most recent follow up visit, these are the boxes checked for me: Dr. Squatrito was on time, compassionate, gentle, kind, attentive listener and displayed authentic and genuine caring sense. Unlike any physician I've ever encountered in my 69 years of life.

The only oconlogist I would go to.
My journey with Dr. Squatrito began after I insisted my NP do a pap smear. Had to press as NP said insurance wouldn't pay for it. Thank God I insisted. My friends immediately gave Dr. Squatrito's to me. I am blessed to have Dr. Squatrito and his team perform my surgery and I have follow-ups with Dr. Squatrito and his team. The best of the best.
