I'm just reading a recent review by Isabelle D and I'd like to say Dr. Angelo Chinnici is a well established primary care physician who has been in practice over 35 years. Within his primary practice he always taken exceptional care of myself and several friends. I will add 1 of which was on hard times and Dr. Chinnici was able to help her free of charge and without hesitation. He and his staff also contacted the pharmaceutical manufacturer to obtain free life saving medication to help. It's truly sad to read this post because I can say Dr. Chinnici has a long standing practice and he truly goes above and beyond. He has devoted his life to putting the needs of his patients 1st at all times. He's an incredible asset and we need more doctors like him! read more

Dr Chinnici is one of a kind he cares about his patience above and beyond. He helped me when I thought everything was hopeless. I had a bad experience in a hospital that would be the last place I would go. I would call Doc first. Thank God for Dr Chinnici for I truly believe he put him in the right place at the right time. To save my life anytime I have a health issue and call him he always comes through for me and my family. Great Doctor and a great person. We consider him our family Doctor because him and his staff treats us like family. read more

Just saw a review by an Isabelle D complaining about the treatment her husband allegedly received from Dr. Chinnici and his staff. Her first sentence was thanking someone for their "honest" review, although it was from 9 years ago. This person complained about the Doctor and how he was treated, so why would he return for another visit for a completely different problem at a later date? Isabelle D claims she is an RN, but I'm curious as to why she couldn't recommend a doctor who would be willing to continue to give her husband a controlled substance closer to where they live? And Dr. Chinnici is definitely one doctor that doesn't just write a script because a patient wants it! As an RN she should know that most doctors require patients that are on controlled substances to be seen every 3-4 months. Did her husband's original doctor retire or perhaps refuse to continue writing scripts after so many years of being on a controlled substance? Why, as his wife and an RN, didn't she encourage him to seek help from a mental health professional to discuss his problems? How fortunate she was to get a caring "staff member" at another office to fill his prescription and then make an appointment with that office within 2 weeks. As for the staff being rude, I actually had to laugh at that. You would have great difficulty finding a more competent, caring and helpful staff elsewhere. She is correct about one thing, she should be ashamed that she is an RN in an otherwise exemplary profession! read more

Dr. Chinnici is one of a kind! He takes all the time he needs to thoroughly take care of me!! I have been taken care by him for over 10 years! Throughout the years I have had many issues....One time I had my gallbladder removed and I filled up with Asides which is fluid built up in your body and I couldn't breathe so my husband and I decided to go to Jersey shore medical center and he seen me in the emergency room distraught and walked up to me and said what's wrong? And I told him that I could not catch my breath he said to me don't worry I am going to take good care of you! And as promised he did with the best care! He has the best bedside manner I have ever experienced! I am so grateful for him and his whole crew at the office!! Whenever I walk in there I always feel better when I walk out and mind u I don't like to go to the doctors but I know I will always leave there feeling like I got the best care possible!! Thank u doc for all u have done for me and my family!! U are one of the best blessings in my life!! If I could give u a 10 star review I would!! read more

I want to thank the person who put up an honest review. My husband had made an appointment with this doctor and went there with his prescriptions. He wanted a doctor who would be understanding of the anxiety he suffered from . Instead of compassion, he received aggravation from the office staff, rudeness, and false accusations. During the first visit, he spoke with this doctor and explained how he wanted to know the policy with the medication refills, also stated that he would get anxiety attacks when the refills were not filled as promised and he would have to wait days until the medication was ready. This so-called physician told my husband that he would have to come in every six months for a visit to get refills which were fine. When the time came for a refill, my husband called the office because the pharmacy told him this doctor would not refill the medication unless he called and scheduled an office visit. My husband said he had just been to this doctor's office a few weeks prior. When he called the office, the rudeness of the office staff was amazing! They spoke down to him, gave him the run around, told him he was calling too much, said he has a bad attitude and they were going to tell the doctor how rude my husband was, which if you knew him you would know that was not true. As he made the appointment with one staff member, the speaker on the phone was on and I was able to hear that the time for the appointment was made for Friday, 11:30 am. On our way to the appointment, we received a call from the doctor's office wanting to know why we missed our appointment. My husband said to the staff member that the appointment was made for 11:30 am and the staff member told him no, it was at 10:30 am and he would have to call and make another appointment and rudely hung up on him which caused him more anxiety. Right then and there he made up his mind never to go back there. Lucky for us, a compassionate and caring staff member with another doctors' office took us right in and was able to fill my husbands' prescription and made him an appointment within 2 weeks. I am a Registered Nurse and what happened to my husband, the way he was treated by these people at Dr. Chinnici's office , the unprofessional conduct made me ashamed of my profession and I would like patient's to know that they have rights and need not tolerate behavior such as my husband went through. The way the office staff conducts themselves is a reflection of how the doctor conducts himself and his office. If the staff is rude, disrespectful, and treats a patient with such disregard , not concern for the patient and their needs, not caring if the patient must go without their medications, the doctor and staff disregard for patient safety, If this happens to you, you should contact the Medical board or the Board of Consumer Affairs and file a complaint. My husband went through unnecessary aggravation just for a prescription . I can not understand how this office received so many good reviews since I am sure this is not the first time something like this has happened. I hope this helps another person from such unprofessional treatment caused by this office. Isabelle RN read more

Obviously the above individual who wrote a scathing review has a personal problem! It looks like from the content of his review or should I say "Complaint" that he is involved in a legal battle and has n gotten what he wants . Shame on Yelp for allowing personal vendettas and legalese to be published! The good Doctor who has won many awards in the State of New Jersey and on a National level Should teach u a lesson and take u folks to task read more

I was sent to Dr Chinnici after I was injured at work at Monmouth Park I suffered from a severe concussion and herniated disks. Because Dr Chinnici works for my employer her gave a false report, and denied me proper medical treatment. Dr Chinnici is an Internal medicine Doctor, I needed an orthopedic Doctor. I complained to the insurance adjuster that I wanted a second opinion. When I went to his office complaining about pain and dizziness I was confronted by Dr Chinnici who asked if I had complained to the adjuster, I confirmed his question, YES. Doctor Chinnici then told me to get out of his office. Later in order to protect his and my employer Dr Chinnici filed a false report, and put me in for disability rather than filing a workmen claim. Dr. Chinnici NEVER examined me. However he stated on his report that I could not lift more than 5 lbs. I should have been placed on NO Work status and sent for follow up visit with an OROTHOPEDIC Dr. and a Neurologist for my concussion. In November of 2014 I did have an internal problem and needed help. Dr Chinnici did see me once, however when I made a second appointment I was denied treatment. At this time I am waiting to get into workmen comp court, I have a workmen comp attorney and I also have a second attorney who is suing my employer Monmouth Park for damages with Dr Chinnici as agent for decimation. Dr Chinnici is the medical director at Monmouth Park and is attending Dr in first aid office, but don't expect to find him in his office, because he spends most of his time at the betting windows or chasing young boys. He likes being around the young jockeys. read more
