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 recommend Dr.Vittorio to the utmost.
Dr. Vittorio spent quality time getting to know my medical history and asking me relevant questions re my daily lifestyle and general behavior so as to ascertain specific strategies to reduce health risks he detected in my case and to improve my overall longevity and vitality - if as a university professor I was requested to rate his expertise and demeanor, I wouldn't hesitate to render a grade of A Plus. He's great!

Recommendation for Dr. Vittorio
This was my first visit to a cardiologist, so, I was anxious about what was going to happen! Dr Vittorio was extremely professional during the examination . Everything was explained to me and all my questions were answered! I was able to leave his office a much calmer person than when I entered! There were follow-up calls from Dr. Vittorio to see how I was doing with the new medication that I was put on and with explanations of the echocardiogram that I had taken at his recommendation. I feel very comfortable to call his office if I have any questions and I will be returning for my follow-up visits!

I was fortunate enough that Dr. Vittorio was working on the weekend my father was admitted to ER at Bronxcare while traveling from Maryland to come to visit his daughter. After he was admitted, Dr. Vittorio made the decision to move him to CCU and got to the bottom of his heart issue/heart attack. We got to meet with him twice/day while my father was in CCU and every time we met with him he was articulate, knowledgeable, and compassionate. He took the time to educate us about the heart and even volunteered to speak to my sister that lives out of state and explain his condition. He's such a caring doctor that he wanted to stay updated on his progress. My father was discharged after 5 days and even after 1 month I am still in touch with him and run all medical matters by him. If my father wasn't old I would have him travel from Maryland to NY to see him. You won't find a doctor like him in this world. I would recommend him to all my family and friends. Dr. Vittorio is a gem.!

Dr. Vittorio is the only cardiologist I trust. My husband and I searched top cardiologist in the US and Dr. Vittorio was the one we choose. We travel four hours from Maryland to see him because we trust and believe in him. He's always available to answer any question and willing to fit us in at the last minute to ease my concerns. He's very passionate and caring and you don't see doctors like that anymore, which is why we will follow him anywhere. Dr. Vittorio is like family to us because that's the type of care we receive from him. God Bless you and your family always Dr. Vittorio.

I met Dr. Vittorio as I developed a heart problem that I needed to make a decision on whether I should go a surgery. After he closely examined my case, health condition, Dr. Vittorio provided some options based on the most updated understanding of the heart problem and recommended for a surgery. I followed his advice and after the surgery, I fully recovered. My symptoms disappeared and I have lived as a health person without any medication any more. Dr. Vittorio is patient, caring, professional, and knowledgeable. I would recommend him to "My Mom if she should have the heart problem."

To whom it may concern, I highly recommend Dr. Vittorio. I recently began experiencing ongoing health issues with chest pain and shortness of breath during my routine workouts. I scheduled an appointment with Dr. Vittorio. From the moment I met Dr. Vittorio, I could tell he was a very knowledgeable doctor who took a strong personal interest in his patients. His attentiveness and attention to detail during his examination and the specific series of tests he ordered, made me feel comfortable and confident that he would diagnose what was causing my discomforts and correct the problem. Dr. Vittorio did not leave any stone unturned by examining every possibility that could be causing my condition. He quickly diagnosed my condition and took immediate steps to correct it. He is a true professional and a master of his craft. I will continue to see Dr. Vittorio for the rest of my life! And I will be recommending him to all my friends and family! Thank you Doctor for all you did for me to

I like Dr. Vittorio because he is very interested in my health. He would take the time to actually explaing things clearly. He makes sure that before I leave his office I have understood my medications and their side effects. We live in an era that doctors do not take the time to know their patients and how they feel about their medical condition. Dr vittorio actually takes the time to listen to his patients. I am very happy with the services that he gives me.

Dr. Vittorio did wonders for me. Before I saw him, I could not walk more than a few steps without huffing and puffing. He changed my medication and I am feeling infinitely better. My ankles had been swollen and after seeing Dr. Vittorio they went down to normal size. He reassured me and made me feel at ease. I would recommend him most highly.
