I loved his professional manner. He spoke plainly not above my head explaining everything he discovered with me and my husband. he didn't waste my time and did 2 procedures while I was under his care. I've recommended him and his services to fiends and family.

Dr. Rapisarda is probably my favorite doctor. He has a great bedside manner and talks to you in a manner that is easy to understand - no "doctor-eze". Highly recommend him.

VERY UN PERSONABLE DOES NOT CARE. BIG ON HIMSELF. i WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND HIM TO ANYBODY. HE SHOULD BE KICKED OUT OF PRACTICE. i DO NOT KNOW ANYBODY WHO WOULD WANT HIM FOR A DOCTOR. HIS PERSONALITY MATCHES HIS PROFESSION.

My mom goes to him for her stomach problems, he never calls back even during emergencys..seems all he wants is money. Very rude man. Will be going to another doctor who actually will take the time to care.

The doctor has pleasant and friendly demeanor--wonderful bedside manner. He is easy to talk to and spent the time to answer all of my questions. Original diagnosis was correct and confirmed by a second test. His staff was courteous and helpful, taking time to extensively explain what I needed to do for an upcoming procedure so I had no questions. Overall, a very good experience.

I went to see Dr. Rapisarda because I was having chronic diarrhea for 4 months. He did a colonoscopy and all was good / negative. Asked me to follow up in 3 months. Just because my colonoscopy was normal doesn't mean my symptoms magically went away. Left message the week after and did not receive a phone call. I went to see another doctor.
