I have never had such a non caring, rude doctor before in my life. Waited 4 hours to get a procedure done only to be told "she is busy" so another doctor had to do it. i have been waiting since April to see her and have been to the hospital 6 times in the past two weeks and have been trying to call her to see her, receptionist is rude and never answers the phone and told me "she is too busy " to see me. Would NEVER recommend her

This is a wonderful doctor who, if she doesn't know will go to any length to find an answer... she is very caring, thorough and gentle with a sense of humour...I have presented her with a number of issues that are not the most common and she found answers for me...she has listened to me try to explain and understood...I would definitely recommend her to everyone

Dr Petroniene is a very knowledgeable and caring person. Her demeanor is impeccable. She listens, cares, and does whatever is necessary to help her patients. I am so glad that she looks after me with my ulcerative colitis.

I believe that I am alive today because of Dr. Petroniene. She really knows her stuff! Before she diagnosed me with celiac disease and numerous other issues, l was terribly underweight, anemic, lacking many vitvitamins and minerals and tired all the time! She immediately started me on iron infusions, mega doses of needed vitamins, and arranged for some much needed surgery. She continues to monitor my health and set up whatever I need as soon as I need it. She is a very caring, knowledgeable physician with a fabulous bedside manner!

I found Dr. Petroniene to be very arrogant and rude. Although she knows her stuff, she does not accept any questions or attempts to seek better answers. My symptoms did not fit her diagnosis at all and instead of taking the time to work with me through the problem, she wanted to add more medication and more invasive procedures. When I asked her if there was another treatment option, she snapped at me. If you desire bedside manner or respectful discussion, do not visit this doctor. If you are willing to mindlessly let the doctor do what she wants, you should be fine. Personally, I'll look for a new doctor.

I was recommended to Dr. Petroniene for severe weight loss. I had a previous bowel obstruction with a perforation. She said there was nothing wrong with me but she would do a endoscopy/colonoscopy because my family Dr. recommended. She told me I was anorexic (92llbs) She told me I wouldn't live a very long life and she sent me to a dietitian to determine my caloric intake and suggested I see a psychiatrist. I have been a nurse for 12 years. The dietitian report came back that my caloric intake was well above what I need to gain weight. Her explanation was I was consuming "empty" calories!! She didn't book my scopes for 9 months in advance as she felt it wasn't necessary but she would do it to keep my Dr. "happy" When I went in for my scope she again told me she felt I had no disease but she would do some biopsies. On my discharge paper she wrote "psychiatric?" I was beyond degraded and upset. Two weeks later Biopsy came back positive for H-Pylori that I have had for "YEARS"

Dr. Petroniene is the best. Very intelligent and is caring. When I go to hospital for scopes I have no fears when I am under her care.
