The ethics and professional knowledge of Dr.
11/26/2025
This office is awesome. Staff are super friendly and Dr. G is a staple in the community for a reason. Kind, understanding, and attentive! Bedside manner is unmatched.

Dr G covered everything for my yearly check up . very helpful with any other concerns that I had thank you
11/20/2025
Doctor George is awesome and so the entire staff .
11/18/2025
Dr. G is always very attentive and caring. He takes whatever time is necessary to diagnose and explain everything that prompted your visit. He's "old school, hands on" which is very hard to find today! Like visiting with a friend.
11/16/2025
Dr. G is a very attentive, kind, and caring doctor. He takes the time to listen to you and talk with you. He doesn't make you feel rushed or silly or make you feel at all self-conscious about your questions or concerns. He really takes the time to talk to you.
11/13/2025
Dr GUARIGLIA and his team worked in sync from patient prepping, to being seen and checked out with recommendations of follow-up. They are exceptional on every level.
11/10/2025
Hi, I think the doctor was really attentive. He listened to my concern about weight gain over the 10 years. And he did suggest that, yes, I should start on setbound if I don't have diabetes. So, yes, I got into the program of setbound to help me lose weight. And he was very, very good in knowing the procedure in doing so. Thank you.
11/7/2025
I have been going to Dr, Guariglia for many years, he's always done the right thing for me,
11/6/2025
The only issue was I had to wait over 1 hour. The doctor had told me there was issues with the computer early and that they were catching up.
11/6/2025
Dr. G was great as always.
11/3/2025
The doctor was very professional but I did not feel that he knew about Lynne disease and did not really understand what my concerns were. I don't really feel like he read my chart throughout to understand why I was coming in. His manner was very polite and he was courteous. He wrote two prescriptions for me which I appreciate, but I felt he just didn't know about the subject of Lynne and that was why I was coming in. I do not have insurance so the visit was very costly for me to just get two prescriptions but no actual advice about whether I have Lynne disease from this tick bite and whether there is anything else I can do within the window of three weeks to assure that I won't get Lynne disease.
11/3/2025
Dr. Guariglia is a caring, compassionate and outstanding physician. His staff is outstanding as well. I drive 1 hour to get to Dr. Guariglia's office. I would drive 2 hours if necessary. I have been a patient of Dr. Guariglia for 24 years. I have referred many people to Dr. Guariglia. They have become his patients and my colleagues now understand why I drive 1 hour to get to his office.
11/1/2025
Dr. Guariglia, I have been a patient for a long time and I'm always very satisfied with him. He's a very good doctor and he's very personable. Thank you. Bye.
10/25/2025
I always wait 1 to 2 hours waiting for a 5 minutes appt. This time I waited 1 hour and 40 minutes to get a prescription increase and refilled.
10/24/2025
I find that most women in the office are really nice and easy to talk to, I have no issues, but I must say it's nice to be noticed which they do, I'm not just a number. I am a person, and I feel like I'm a person in their office.
10/23/2025
My office visit with Dr. George Guariglia was very good, very informative, and very thorough. And I'm glad that I have him as my primary doctor. Thank you.
10/22/2025
Dr. G is awesome!! I see why he is so busy. Waiting time was a little crazy, but maybe it was an off day.
10/22/2025
NICE!
10/21/2025

10/21/2025
The doctor was wonderful. Very knowledgeable and very kind. I would recommend him highly.
10/17/2025
Spent plenty of time with us because she takes care of my meds. They went over them with great diligence.
10/17/2025
This is my 2nd year with Dr G and I have nothing but good things to say about him. He shows passion for his work, and care for his clients. I love that he encourages questions, and answers them in a way that's easy to comprehend.
10/16/2025
I Love Dr. G. He is an Awesome Doctor.
10/12/2025
Dr G took a lot of time was very caring and helpful. In the future I know I Can have more testing done there, which will be so much easier. He calmed my fears and gave me great advice. I'm very thankful I went
10/8/2025
Dr. G on Union Valley Road in West Milford is a godsend. For 15 years, well, for years, we didn't have him. We've had him for 15 years here in West Milford, Hewitt. He's a very kind, compassionate, loving person. Everybody up here respects him. He's a good, good man. And I'll make sure I got a chance to tell him every time. George Guariglia is a very good man. He's a good, great doctor.
10/7/2025
Dr. G is a great doctor. The wait times in that office have always been horrible. It's the reason why my wife stopped going to him, but because he's a good doctor, I still go, but the wait time's usually always over an hour. And they should really do the blood work before a physical. So they have the results when you go to get the physical and you can talk about it with the doctor when you're there, as opposed to getting the results read to you from a receptionist over the phone.
10/6/2025
Dr Guariglia is a highly skilled doctor and is caring of his patients. He spends ample time with me. Answers all my questions. Provides valuable advice
10/2/2025
Dr. G and his staff are always wonderful!
9/30/2025
He's the best doctor I've seen in the last 15 years. He explains things to you clearly. He helps guide you in the direction that you are in better health. And you have a confidence talking to him. He's a good doctor.
9/25/2025
Dr G is a great doctor who is always attentive to your needs.
9/24/2025
He normally keeps us waiting but as it was a slight emergency, bee sting, saw us right away, but very unhappy with St. Anthony's hospital, who didn't do what he recommended and plan to tell them so. We shouldn't have gone there, they put ice on it and put him on a steroid, Dr. G wanted him to do an antibiotic infusion, they declined.
9/24/2025
The doctor's staff is great. Dr. Gurigulia went all out to provide me an appointment with a Urologist within three hours, fantastic.
9/15/2025
Dr. G is the Best, old school
9/13/2025
Dr. G is phenomenal. Bedside manners, fantastic, explains everything, would not go anywhere else. Recommend him highly for anybody that needs care.
9/8/2025
Always a professional environment at this location. Dr G is an awesome doctor.
9/5/2025
We'll done Doc!
9/4/2025
This was a virtual visit, not a, wasn't....I didn't get there. Ok with virtual visit. Thank you, i made a mistake, thank you.
9/4/2025
Dr. G was extremely compassionate and understanding.
9/3/2025
The office is run very well, except that after your appointment, you go into the room, you have to wait anywhere from 15 minutes to 45 minutes before the doctor comes in. That's a big complaint. That's all.
8/30/2025
My provider was wonderful, careful, checked everything, very happy, and he's wonderful. Thank you.
8/26/2025
Everything was good.
8/26/2025
Provider is great but having to deal with an answering service that knows nothing about you n that is short with you is horrible. I wouldn't recommend this because it's not a family friendly doctor anymore.
8/25/2025
His expertise, the dignified treatment that the Dr. gives to his patient, the management and response to the medical situation.
8/25/2025
Dr. George Guariglia is a fabulous doctor. He takes the time to meet with you, explain things to you, and really shows you compassion and concern while he is treating you. I would highly recommend him to anyone I know and everyone I know. He's just the best. Thank you. Bye now.
8/25/2025
Unbelievable
8/22/2025
While we may have to wait a little bit once you see Dr G you have his total attention and don't feel rushed.
8/22/2025
They were very proficient, very effective, very professional, and he was a terrific
8/20/2025
I've been going to this doctor for almost 20 years. And when I showed up, they wanted me to fill out all the forms for a family history and then proceeded to tell me that they didn't have any of my records on file. The only reason I keep going back to this doctor is the convenience of getting in to see him and that they have all my records. And if they don't have all my records and can't be bothered to maintain a proper record system, that eliminates 50% of the only two reasons why I go to see them. Thank you.
8/19/2025
My time is just as important as his. My appt was at 930. I did not get into an exam room until 1020. I did not get out from my appt until 1110. Mind you this was just for a blood pressure check so my meds could be refilled.
8/18/2025
The office staff is great, Doctor G is great. The waiting time can be a little long but this is not in anyone's control. Overall an A+.
8/18/2025
The wait time is just always awful. I know it's a big town and there is a lot of patients but it seems like it should be a call and wait in a local spot before going into to the appt so that the waiting room isn't a miserable place and the WiFi doesn't work. The workers are good it's just the getting in to a room and the waiting before the appt and in the room.
8/18/2025
The staff is helpful and respectful.
8/18/2025
My appointment took 1.5 hours with an appointment not a walk in.
8/9/2025
Dr G. is a very good doctor in my opinion
8/6/2025
He is a very nice person.
8/6/2025
Too long wait time. I waited over an hour, but it's worth my time to see Dr. Guariglia.
8/5/2025
Been going to Highlander Family Medicine for years, and always had great service.
8/4/2025
It was such a pleasure to have a doctor actually listen to me and work with me to try to get to the root of my problems rather than just prescribing another pill.
8/3/2025
I've been going to Dr G for over 25 years and I would never change. I know he gets busy at times but he likes to be patient and careing with everyone he sees.
8/1/2025
Dr. G treats me like I'm a member of the family, always has. His staff is very, very sweet, very, very informative about what's going on. The nurse comes in that checks my vitals is also very, very tedious about her work and knows exactly what she's doing and gives very good directions. It's a pleasure. Thank you.
7/31/2025
The only issue in this office is the wait time. Sometimes you're there two hours. Dr. G is wonderful, but the wait time is terrible.
7/30/2025
All the staff were very friendly and professional. Dr G was very professional as well. It was pleasant experience.
7/24/2025
Yes, it was a very extensive visit. And I like the fact that they checked my eyes and my ears. And I was very happy with the visit. Thank you. Bye.
7/21/2025
We have been Dr Guariglia 's patient for many many years! He's a wonderful, caring doctor! We love him!
7/21/2025
Dr.G Is truely understanding answers my questions outstanding Dr.
7/19/2025
Dr G answered all my questions concerning abnormal blood tests results
7/15/2025
Very kind and understanding. Great people
7/10/2025
When this office makes you an appointment they make sure they call you 50 times. Send it 300 emails over and over again but when you get in that office you sets in one of those examination rooms for over an hour I was getting ready to walk out and the girls talked me into staying. I must say the doctor and I walked into the building at exactly the same time stop
7/1/2025
Dr. G is very kind and he actually listens to you and does not rush the visit:)
6/30/2025
Dr. G is an excellent doctor. He listens to what I have to say. He takes the time to explain everything so I understand. I recommend him to everyone. The staff is kind and considerate to my needs.
6/24/2025
much better waiting time, having said that, Dr. G needs more help in, when we left the office there were at least 20 people in the waiting room.
6/21/2025
I love Dr. G. He's the best.
6/21/2025
The experience was all over excellent. The vampire was able to get my blood out easy. It was difficult to get blood from me. It was a pleasure to go there, actually. That's all. Bye.
6/20/2025
Waited 40 minutes to see the doctor. Once everything was completed, I had been at the clinic for almost 2 hours
6/18/2025
It was a triple AAA experience
6/17/2025
You can improve the wait time. I waited for 45 minutes and then I had to open the door and go out and ask the office staff when I would be seen next.
6/13/2025
Dr. G is wonderful and even though we always have to wait to see him, it's worth the wait because we know he won't rush us when he gets there. We love him.
6/12/2025
It took 2 days and 5phone calls and stop by to get the presciption to the pharmacy
6/11/2025
My experience this time was wonderful other times not so in the past there were things on my test results that we're not good that were blown off to be nothing like very low vitamin d level high protein level a lot of inflammation in my body and I wasn't told what to do about it I was just told it's fine and everything looks good on all my tests
6/6/2025
Very professional. Dr Guariglia and the nurse were very professional and put me at ease.
6/2/2025
Love the Dr. one of the office staff is rude and disrespectful. Wait time is horrible.
5/28/2025
The nurse gathering information regarding previous diagnostic testing and history, did not have the information available to her via computer. It's extremely hard to remember exact dates of mammography, colonoscopy, papsmear, vaccinations, ect. This information should be universal and readily available to all treating health care providers regardless of privacy. It will not only help the providers in proper treatments and diagnosis, but also prevent misdiagnosing a patient. It is important all providers have access to the same information regarding medications and medication history.
5/23/2025
Dr. G spent a long time with me, addressing many health concerns.
5/22/2025
I've been going to Dr. Guariglia for many years. He and his staff are wonderful people. They're friendly, courteous and professional. What more could you ask for?
5/18/2025
Dr. G is a great doctor. He's dedicated. He's there seven days a week for you and his staff is friendly and helpful. It's a great place.
5/17/2025
Great staff
5/16/2025
Dr. G was great. He took the time to listen to my medical concerns. He took the time to explain them. The office had notified me of delays, which was great. I was surprisingly happy with the service I received in this clinic. I would highly recommend it.
5/13/2025
Dr G and his staff are awesome
5/10/2025
Dr. Guariglia is a very kind and caring doctor. I think he's very well and I would go to him. I will keep going to him and I will also say that I would recommend him for my family.
5/8/2025
I have always found Dr. G to be a very concerned and compassionate care giver. He goes out of his way to help in any way necessary.
4/26/2025
Excellent
4/25/2025
Dr. Guariglia is a very patient and very relatable and just a great genuine doctor. Very informative.
4/24/2025
Dr. Guariglia is the best doctor I've ever seen in my entire life. My wife's been going to him about 10 years already and I just started with him. I've never seen a doctor as busy and as good as he is. Thank you very much.
4/22/2025
Everyone was very pleasant and knowledgeable.
4/19/2025
Hassle free professional services with a lot of care compassion
4/18/2025
Yes, he did not follow up after I had my blood work. He had the nurse practitioner make a remark on my chart and she was not even in the office on the day that I saw Dr. Guariglia. This is not acceptable to me and I will be finding another doctor. So this is not good practice. He's the one that should have called me or went on my chart. Like I said, she was not even in the office that day. Thank you.
4/17/2025
Was very happy with my visit.
4/14/2025
Dr. G is probably the best doctor that I have ever had. I have been going to him for at least 12 to 13 years. Always very attentive, always very caring. He's absolutely the best.
4/14/2025
Dr. G is the best!
4/12/2025
Dr. G is a great doctor for kids. My kids love going to Dr. G's office. They've been seeing him since they were newborns. And I love his staff and his nurse practitioners.
4/11/2025
I am definitely pleased with my experience, as always. All my questions were answered concerning my health issues.
4/11/2025
I really like my GP, George Guariglia, but since he is now a member of Hackensack Meridian Healthcare System, I am not happy at all. I cannot reach his office. I am getting bills now that I never got before because of the billing method. It is a total screw up and I am not happy at all since he has joined Hackensack Meridian Healthcare. I liked him way before his office ran more efficient when he was not part of Hackensack Meridian Healthcare. Since he has joined them, there is nothing but problems with billing and scheduling.
4/9/2025
professional and concerned.
4/6/2025
Great doctor spends enough time with you so you feel good when you leave
4/4/2025
I always get an appointment and Everyone is very polite and helpful. The office is clean and welcoming. Great staff.
4/1/2025
Dr. G from West Milford, New Jersey is absolutely the best doctor, the best GM I've ever gone to. He's caring, he's kind, he listens to you. He's just amazing. I love him. He's just great. Thank you. You can tell him. Give him my name. I don't care. He's just the best. I can't say enough about him. Thank you. Bye-bye.
3/31/2025
Was taken into room very quickly but waited nearly an hour to see the doctor after the nurse had done initial physical and test. I was within minutes of leaving when doctor finally showed
3/28/2025
Dr. G is so great and informative. Makes you feel at ease. I don't mind waiting to see him.
3/27/2025
Doctor is very good with an excellent manner. He was able to completely put me at ease, assuaged my concerns about my infection and provided excellent results. Always a pleasant experience.
3/26/2025
Dr. G is the best!
3/25/2025
The wait time was over an hour. It was ridiculous. I was only there to renew prescriptions.
3/24/2025
Very happy with my visit and a very professional person. Thank you.
3/24/2025
I've never had a doctor in my life who is as special, informative, and friendly, and compassionate as George. I just can't say enough good things about him and how many times I feel that he saved me. So, that's it. Thank you.
3/22/2025
Dr. Guariglia is amazing. He's been our family doctor since like 2010. I have nothing but good stuff to say about him. He's amazing. My only criticism and it really has nothing to do with him is trying to make an appointment now we're kind of rerouted to Hackensack Meridian and we don't go to the office directly and that is a major problem because you might just need to speak to someone and make a quick appointment and it takes way too long. That's really my only criticism. Other than that, he's amazing and we have a severely disabled daughter and he works with us so beautifully and everybody at the office is awesome too. That's it. Bye.
3/20/2025
Wait time is the only thing that was negative about this intro visit - Dr. G is nice.
3/20/2025
So glad he was available as I had COVID
3/17/2025
Dr. Guariglia was a very patient man with respect for my concerns. He es very thorough in expressing things to me. I would recommend him to all my friends and family!
3/17/2025
Ok good dr
3/14/2025
DR> G has been my doctor for years and i like him very much he listens and is caring.
3/12/2025
Dr G was wonderful. After having a horrible issue at Hackensack Urgent Care in Lincoln Park Dr G
3/11/2025
I was extremely happy with the service, the doctor, and everybody there. I would recommend them 100%.
3/4/2025
My daughter has great anxiety in going to the doctor. Dr G was great, took time with her, spoke to her and helped her with meds and a nebulizer for her broncitis. Thank You
3/4/2025
Lovely Nurses
2/25/2025
The office, the nurses, the doctor is amazing. Everything is perfect. Thank you.
