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.

Having moved 26 times during my lifetime and engaged with many many physicians, I would say Christopher Ginocchio is among the top five physicians I have known. His medical knowledge is vast. His inpatient doctor to patient examining room demeanor is excellent. His overall presence is far superior to other physicians I have seen over my lifetime. I am [age removed] years old and counting. Christopher Ginocchio makes me feel comfortable, and willing to discuss my medical problems without hesitation. He has a marvelous sense of humor. His directness and "cut to the chase" discussion with me about my neurological situation puts me at ease. I like to be "told the truth" and not left trying to figure what was said to me. I consider Christopher Ginocchio a friend as well as my neurologist. I cannot praise him enough other to say than if my adult children needed neurological care and advice I would tell them to see him.

First time visit. I was very impressed by everyone at the officeFriendly, kind and diligent

  Sep 26, 2023
As a general comment, I wish that doctors could spend more time discussing the situation and having dialogue rather than needing to rushing off to the next patient. In other words book less appointments to allow for greater connection between doctor and patient.

Dr. Ginocchio is the absolute best. I'm an ancient patient. Though Chris is out of network, I'll never change.
