Sciortino Vincent MD

Dr. Sciortino is interested in his patients. When he asks a question he listens to the answer given. When the patient asks a question he listens and responds. He reviews the lab findings with the patient, refills prescriptions as needed, applies new medicines if the old ones are of no help. If you are sick and need to be seen an appointment will be made to work you in. He has a large practice, sees patients in three hospitals and is busy. Many doctors today do not see their patients admitted to the hospital — they are just dumped over to a «hospitalist» whom they have never seen before. Dr. Sciortino does not do this! Seeing a great doctor comes with patience — take a book and something to drink, a sweater if you think you need one. The front desk is not rude but very busy! I am pleased with him and his office!

Dr. Sciortino is nice, but that’s the best I can say. We’ve been seeing him for 3+ years and we’ve finally had enough. He doesn’t seem very knowledgable or informed. When he meets with you, it’s more like a casual conversation with a friend. That’s comforting, but I prefer someone who will take my health and medical attention seriously and be proactive about it. In addition, his office staff is rude, unfriendly, and impatient. You’ll feel like you’re just a number in a line, not a cared about patient. And, my biggest gripe is the wait time. For our past few appointments, we’ve had to wait OVER ONE HOUR until we were even seen!!! To make this even more unacceptable, when we were finally seen, the doctor spent all of 15 minutes with us. So inconsiderate! We have to wait over an hour to see him and then he rushes us in and out… He obviously cares more about making quick money then he does about the well-​being of his patients! Like I said, this excessively long wait and short meeting time has happened a few times now, so we’ve finally decided to make the move to a new doctor. We highly recommend staying AWAY from Dr. Sciortino’s office.
