Dr. Caruso is very knowledgeable, professional, and most importantly, caring. After a year of pain I was finally diagnosed with an 11mm right side kidney stone, and was quickly booked an appointment to see Dr. Caruso. He previously treated my son and we knew he was a great surgeon. My surgery, like my sons, was fast and effective. I had a quick recovery and no longer know what pain feels like. Thank you, Dr. Anthony P. Caruso!!!

I went to Dr. Caruso on a strong recomendation. My best friend had Prostrate Cancer. Dr. Caruso walked him through from start to finish. He was very grateful to go through something so scary. But was relieved that his doctor was caring, informational, strong and knowledgeable and skilled. I am now going through much the same thing. I too am grateful for Dr. Carusos trust and expertise.

After being tortured by Dr. Jack Philbrick, I came to Dr Caruso. I was so scared I wouldnt even let him examine me. He gave me a prescription and set a new apointment. The prescription relaxed me at my next visit. He was patient and let me look through the exam tube. He accurately diagnosed my problem, set up surgury and fixed my problem. Hes great!

After being tossed here and there I finally was sent for a consult to Dr Caruso. He listened, and listened well. I felt like he truly cared about my case and truly wanted to see me get better. He knew exactly what to do and when to do it. His office set things up, and it got done in a timely manner...none of this waiting for weeks on end for a simple procedure. Great doctor, and Im doing fantastically better now after his treatment plan worked!

I have seen this doctor 3 times in the last 5 years. I have walked of his office 2yrs in a row. His wait times are completely unacceptable. Im not sure the scheduling department is untrained in how to schedule medical appointments or if they are just incompetent. Regardless there are other doctors to see in the area that dont require more of your time than necessary.

"Dr Caruso seemed rush to end our visit as quickly as possible. I have an underlaying condition that causes a disability. He came in and didnt ask anything about why I was there, just shared he read my paperwork I filled out and wants me to stop all medicine for 7 weeks to see what happens. They will do bloodwork at that point in time and discuss ideas once the results are back. I shared I have done ..."

Dr. Caruso has a peculiar personality but seems very knowledgeable. His care seemed good until he became overworked and began forgetting things critical to managing my cancer. When I followed up on these things, he or his staff refused to call me back. I was scheduled for a procedure three weeks out when I received a certified letter in the mail from him, simply stating that he was no longer my doctor. He left me high and dry during a difficult time (I am a cancer patient) by putting his ego ahead of my well-being. He was extremely unprofessional and without a doubt, compromised his Hippocratic Oath.

They will do bloodwork at that point in time and discuss ideas once the results are back. I shared I have done this before twice with other doctors and it did not yield the results they also hoped for. It also puts me in a poor state of health due since the medicine is needed. He got flustered when I asked what other treatment options we have, and said "in my professional opinion, this is what were doing". He wouldnt even explain the other possible treatment options. I am left very sad and disappointed. All I wanted was help...
