 |  Dr. Vaccaro is Amazing!  |  show details
by Jess H on Jun 13th, 2013

Dr. Vaccaro is brilliant, He is careful, intelligent, sympathetic and helpful. I highly recommend him if you will be facing a life long and life changing illness, this isn't baby stuff - he treats serious illness of the brain! He always helps me and it has been 8 years of me counting on him!

I didn't like Dr. Vaccaro. He has no bedside manner. He treated me, not as an individual but collectively in the pile of people who don't like to go to work. And, in doing so, sent me back to work when I wasn't ready resulting in another concussion. Could this have happened if I didn't go back right away, sure. It is my contention that Dr. Vaccaro, who receives money from school boards, etc.., sent me back to early resulting in a head trauma that is still debilitating a year later. Unfortunately, there isn't a pill or procedure that can cure a concussion. It is my opinion that Dr. Vaccaro profits in sending people back to work, even if they aren't well enough to go back to work. For your sake, see another doctor. It will be in your best interests.

 |  In wouldn't send a ODG to this Neuorlogist Group practice!  |  show details
Oct 14th, 2010

I was referred to this doctor by another not so ggod doctor, who I am no longer with, ironically they both went to the same lousy MED. School. In anyn case, this doctor did NOT address the 2 reasons I came to him accordingly and it seemed like he knew little compared to a few other neurologist I have seen several years ago. He was sarcastic , arrogant and would did NOT know nothing about MRI imaging of the NECK and the RLN and superior RLN nerves, and he's a Neurologist. He should be sanctioned and be demoted from assistant Chief Neurologist, at Mountainside hospital. This is a disgrace. He doesn't take his patients serious NOR again, seems to know what he is talking about, in my opinion. I will NEVER refer this idiot to ANYONE I KNOW! He's a creep and needs to go back to school and also LISTEN to his patients complaints a bit more!Eddie SWharton NJ
