Patient Reviews
Nov 17, 2022
Dr. Cerfolio is an excellent skilled surgeon. He is wise, skilled and caring. He was the fifth surgeon I visited for my condition and he was the only surgeon able to perform the surgery fully robotically and successfully. He is incredibly attentive, listens and provides his cell phone number to each patient, asks you to text him daily with an update and responds whenever you text even if its after work hours. He is thoughtful, insightful and caring. He personally addresses your issue and is proactive. He has surrounded himself with an excellent team both inpt and outpt. Excellent Fellows, Nurse Practitioners and Office Staff team that make reaching their office and having your concerns addressed simply and efficiently. I have worked in healthcare for over 30 years and have never seen a surgeon as excellent and attentive as he is. I am proud to have put my trust and confidence in Dr. Cerfolio. I thank G-d for leading me to him ! He was truly able to put me at ease as he had performed this complicated surgery all the time and his positivity and confidence was contagious. Three weeks post surgery and I'm truly grateful !
