In patients' words

"Dr. Filardo is an awesome doctor. She delivered 2 of my children and was great to deal with during labor. Great bedside manner. So caring and always makes me feels comfortable."

— Vitals review for Dr. Josephine Filardo

"It’s true that you’ll likely see the same doc at all or most appointment but I found Steven to be arrogant and dismissive. Had a very bad experience with him. I left his practice."

— Imamother forum discussion

"She was very caring throughout, she really read all my reports, was on top of the situation. I really felt that somebody was holding my hand. She was very, very compassionate, guiding me."
