Dr. Dempster has given me valuable information about the medications I take and has prescribed a treatment that has alleviated my painful foot neuropathy significantly


Nov 07, 2024

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!


Oct 22, 2024

Dr, Dempster is a compassionate, intelligent physician and I feel fortunate to be under his care.

I had a wonderful visit with my Dr. He is very good


Sep 18, 2024

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.


Sep 18, 2024

Dr. Ginnochio was great. He was focused, tested some of my abilities, and explained them .


Sep 05, 2024

I really like this doctor. Great personality, good listening skills, prompt with answering questions thoroughly. It was all-in-all a good meeting.


Aug 04, 2024

Very pleasant and responsive to my questions


Aug 01, 2024

Dr. Dempster was easy to talk to & gave us information that was current to our handicapped son's condition. We appreciated that Dr. Dempster was well prepared & had read all the information about our son. Thank you!!!


Jul 27, 2024

Dr. Ginnochio and his assistant were excellent and spent a lot of time listening to my concerns


Jul 17, 2024

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.


Jul 08, 2024

Dr. Dempster's bedside manner was greatly improved! It was nice. I don't appreciate the questions on this about gender identity or race sensitivity.


Jun 28, 2024

Very good


Jun 26, 2024

Dr. Dempster is very understanding, patient & knows what he's doing.


Jun 20, 2024

Dr. Dempster is incredibly rude and unprofessional the way he speaks to patients is unbelievable. He did not show me any respect or compassion. He raised his voice at me and told me I need to be tested for autism because I wasn't looking him in the eyes for the entire appointment. I would never recommend him if anything I would tell people steer clear. I will NOT see him again. Two times is 2 too many.


Jun 11, 2024

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.


Jun 11, 2024

Dr. G is very kind, attentive and thorough. He has reLly helped me through some challenges.I very much appreciate him.


Jun 10, 2024

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.


Jun 08, 2024

My wife and I had great care with the whole staff! They were all great !


Jun 06, 2024

Dr Ginocchio is awesome


Jun 06, 2024

I feel as though Dr. Dempster brushes off my concerns and does not take my health conditions seriously. He has asked me more than once if I "really" have certain conditions, which causes me to have to re-explain my health history, rather than him keeping good notes.


May 25, 2024

Every time I go see Dr. Dempster he explains stuff with me so I understand my medical condition.


May 25, 2024

Dempster is awesome


May 25, 2024

Dr. John Dempster is very impressive, kind, courteous and patient. Extremely good experience.


May 22, 2024

I was surprised at how quickly I was called after checking in. And even more pleased at how quickly and attentive staff was. Dr. Didn't make me wait very long at all, and didn't act as if he were in a hurry, even though I know he had several other patients.


May 22, 2024

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


May 21, 2024

All good


May 17, 2024

Dr. Ginocchio is very good at what he does. He explains things well and shows concern for my issues.


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.


May 16, 2024

Getting an appointment was frustrating - long wait times on phone.


Mar 28, 2024

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.


Mar 25, 2024

All went well.


Mar 23, 2024

Dr Dempster is very clear and confident. I appreciate how straightforward he is. If he does not think testing is necessary he will let me know. He is very knowledgeable and kind. I think he has my best interest in mind.


Mar 23, 2024

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.


Mar 09, 2024

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.


Feb 29, 2024

Excellent, covered all my questions and concerns.


Feb 22, 2024

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.


Feb 16, 2024

Good visit.


Jan 31, 2024

Dr. Dempster listens to my concerns and I really appreciate how he explains my medical condition.


Jan 16, 2024

Have none.


Jan 03, 2024

Took multiple phone calls to get an appointment in a more timely manner after informing staff of unexpected increasing symptoms.


Jan 01, 2024

He's a excellent doc


Dec 22, 2023

Dr. Dempster is great. Listens well and address es questions completely and in laymen's terms


Dec 21, 2023

I love the attention that Dr. Ginocchio paid to my concern and his excellent explanations of everything.


Dec 15, 2023

The only complaint I have is when I received a call back from the scheduler. I almost hung-up because I thought it was a junk call. I did not recognize the number and the first words from the person were "how are you?". The second was "so when would you like to come in?" (Or something similar to that question.). The person may have assumed I had the phone number on my phone so I would know that it was from Legacy. But my phone did not recognize the number. The scheduler was very friendly but needs to be cognicent of professionalism.


Dec 13, 2023

I highly recommend Dr Dempster and the staff are very helpful.


Dec 13, 2023

Very personable. Dr Ginocchio explained my issue using a real skull, his anatomy text book, and showed my images of my MRI. Very very helpful. Excellent dr


Dec 12, 2023

Scheduling was way out for this appointment, which was impacted by lab work requirement.The Dr never discussed my lab results that's really frustrating, because they asked for them! This also was why my appointment was deferred, so if you're not going to use them then just meet with me he was friendly and thorough, so I didnt put down low scores, but this was one thing.It is really frustrating that I've been seeing neurologists from this office for 15+ years and now my EEG diagnosis has changed?? So, multiple neurologists from the same office have Interpreted the results incorrectly/differently for 20 years, since my initial diagnosis. This is not his failure, I appreciate his evaluation, but an entire office for 15+ years interpreting results differently is wild.The delays will now likely result in extra costs to my family due to deductible. This is unfortunate.


Dec 06, 2023

Doctor treated me as a case, not as a person.Ireceived the information that I needed (dosage of a mediction}
