I have had 2 visits with De Ginocchio & each visit was very thorough, all of my concerns were addressed, he was very caring, & I never felt rushed to end the visit. He is a wealth of information!

Dr. Ginoccio was extremely knowledgeable of my health background & current conditions, etc. He was attentive, made suggestions and prescribed a new med for me. He asked me pertinent questions as well as listened to mine. I'm glad I met him and have him for my new neurologist. His staff was also very courteous and helpful.

Even though it took six months and very frustrating to get an appointment and even to have someone call me back, Once I finally saw the doctor all of my irritability went away. It was the most thorough and comprehensive appointment I've had in a long time. Dr. Ginoccio took the time to get to the root of my health issues. Very satisfied.

Very good

Doctor communicated well, listened unusually well, was open and kind toward me and expressed care for my problems and needs. He assured I was as comfortable as possible during a challenging test and discussed results with me right away. Given his specialty I hope I won't have to see him again. Given my condition I might have to. If so, I'm sure the visit will be caring, supportive, and informative.

The visit with the dictor was not rushed and lasted a nice ling time. I had many questions and these were answered. Uncommon now days to have a doctor slow down and take the time needed to answer my questions and ask me in depth questions. I really appreciate him.

The provider himself is good. The support staff for scheduling and availability of appointments is poor.

  May 16, 2024
Dr. Ginocchio was extremely professional, kind, and very helpful. He explained my whole situation in a way. I could understand it. He was very thorough in his testing as well as asking me questions. I felt he understood completely. What was going on with my back and my neuropathy. He gave some helpful suggestions for me for the future, I would certainly recommend him as an excellent neurologist.

Over the last 57 years following a motorcycle accident, I have have been under the direct care of at lest 5 neurologists. Dr. Ginnochio is by far the most perceptive, knowledgeable and personable specialist I have encountered. He truly listens and considers all symptoms I describe. He thoughtfully adjusts treatments & meds accordingly.

All went well.

He always listens carefully to any concerns I might have regarding my treatments. His skills in his field have greatly helped me in obtaining the most pain free life possible! He has helped.me in finding joy in my life's activities once again.

Dr. G. Is excellent- however the scheduling process was painful and frustrating. Plus the Myhealth app is useless for requesting an appointment with Dr.G.

I can easily establish rapport with this physician
  Feb 21, 2024
I felt the doctor justified my illness by including my age and up to 90 years of age of your body will break down as we age. I was greatly upset. Even more upset when my medical record for my appointment says I could walk only a few steps, but I never was asked to get out of my wheelchair to show him I could take steps when using a walker or a bar like I do in physical therapy. I felt I was written off as no hope of me walking again. I want to get a second opinion. This is my second visit with this doctor and he made my confidence I had that I would walk be deflated how he told me I would never walk as normal as I did before. Everyone has told me to still keep positive and how much I have improved since my illness started six months ago. So I'm still going to keep positive and keep my confidence up and work real hard with my physical therapist to walk again.
