"I had a 15 min video conference that I was charged $400 out of pocket, expensive but not the main issue. She ultimately recommended the most expensive, and invasive treatment, and steered me away from any holistic or natural based treatments which in her defense is the standard recommendation. At the end of the call I was sent a referral to get a CT scan to monitor the progression of the disease. I contacted her office to relay my concerns about moving forward with such an invasive procedure and that I would be looking for a second opinion. I then spent months trying to schedule the CT scan she referred only to find out that her office was actively refusing to forward the referral letter to the insurance company delaying additional review and treatment. I didn't know that it was retaliatory, but after several imaging centers and months of delays having the same issue I got the message loud and clear."

"I am beyond disappointed and shocked. We had a virtual visit and Dr. Geraldino requested blood work to be sent over for her to review and get back to us. We sent the blood work over and we never heard from her again. Despite the calls and messages that were left. No response or follow up"

Data Transparency and Trust: Understanding WebMD Doctor Listings and Reviews

We know that finding the right doctor or provider is important to your health. That’s why we want to ensure you have confidence in the provider profiles and listings you see on WebMD Care. Our provider data is sourced from the physicians themselves as well as publicly available databases. Any doctor or provider who claims their profile by verifying themselves can update their information and provide additional data on their specialties, education, accepted insurances, conditions they treat, and procedures they perform.

All the physician and provider reviews on WebMD Care are provided by users just like you. Knowing these reviews provide insight into how other patients feel about a doctor, we maintain internal policies and protocols to ensure the quality and accuracy of all reviews. Providers are not able to remove or modify reviews on their own. Reviews can only be removed after an internal review by our customer service team.

We value your input and encourage you to reach out to our support team if you encounter any issues.
