Dr. Altimari has performed four procedures on me going back almost 20 years. I have always found him to be attentive and caring for his patients (me!).

Not enough detailed, medical examination explanations- instead more high level and “generalized”. I am in the healthcare business and wanted more details. I asked him to write some info down for me to research later and he did not.

Very personable. Answers all questions thoroughly, does not 'speak down' to his patients. Understandably moves quickly but still is able to make you feel that, while he's with you, he's with you 100% and attentive.

Dr. Altimari is amazing. Explained everything in a way I could understand. He was confident yet caring. I felt secure my surgery was being done by a top surgeon when I left because of his explanations and positive attitude.

Dr. Anthony Altimari has been my surgeon since I was diagnosed with colon cancer in June 2015. He has flawlessly performed numerous major abdominal surgeries on me. From the moment, I met him, he was welcoming and has treated me the sensitivity as if I were his own family! I trust him completely! He is always on time and his staff has always been very pleasant, helpful and courteous.
