Lauren Mancuso was wonderful. It was indeed a pleasure to know her and have her as my care Provider.
Lauren Mancuso was amazing She was new to me, but clearly went over my records before my visit and talked to me about everything that has happened before. She was thorough and discussed all options, opinions, etc. She was friendly and wonderful.
Lauren Mancuso, she is a delightful caring person, she took her time to explain my concerns. I would definitely recommend her to my family and friends and yes I will go back to see her again next year.
Lauren was fantastic. I was blown away. She came in prepared to the appointment and knew my story very well. She had clear directions and clear recommendations for me to improve going forward. I felt very comfortable with her, and if I need further care, I will definitely be coming back to her.
I've been going to this office for 15 years & meeting Lauren Mancuso for the first time was great.. I left there feeling so good about myself
My only issue was having to wait 30 minutes in the exam room before being seen by Lauren Mancuso.
She was very welcoming and friendly, introduced herself, told me a little bit about herself, made me feel comfortable before the start of the exam. I liked her very much.
She was friendly and respectful was such a great experience for me and I really appreciate her explaining to everything I asked her she was happy to explain it to me love her
Lauren was absolutely fabulous. I have never had a better experience with a health care provider in my life. She provided great care and respect to me. She explained everything in a way that was easily understandable. I had a fantastic experience and can't thank her enough for being so caring and kind. For an experience that can be unsettling and I was very nervous I left feeling at ease and fully knowledgeable about what is ahead. She is wonderful and I can't say enough good things about her. She spent more time with me than I was expecting and I appreciate everything about her.
Great

My experience was very pleasant, and I have great appreciation for the excellent patient care shown to me. Thank you for this kindness and keep it up!
First time meeting this provider. She was very efficient, pleasant, and informative.
Very kind and friendly, and professional, my doctor, I loved how she treated me, thank you
Lauren was amazing. She was very knowledgeable, patient, and walked me through a few steps and just helped me to understand everything that I was going through. Also, everyone that works in the office is so courteous and kind and very helpful. Great experience overall.
This was y first visit with Dr. Lauren Mancuso and she is very good, give time for I talk how I feel and she listen with compassion and attention, she is one of the best
Very pleased. Everyone was very caring, pleasant , helpful and knowledgeable
Wonderful, profesional & caring.
Lauren was great and very knowledgeable. I appreciated her time, and my appointment went very well. The only thing is when I received a message to come 30 minutes before my appointment, my appointment was at 8 a.m., so I got there at 7.30 as directed, and nobody was at the office. The doors were locked, and nobody came in until around 7, I was able to get in at 7.55. I did see staff go into the side doors. Nobody acknowledged me that I was there waiting by the front door. And it wasn't until somebody actually opened the front door that I was acknowledged. And I just don't think that it's right to ask somebody to come 30 minutes before when the office isn't even open.
We met for the first time. Explained the approach for screening, excellent bedside manner, really listened to my concerns as a patient.
Very pleasant and informative. Gave me a good exam and answered all of my questions. Liked her alot.
Exxelent job great
I had a great experience with the doctor. I absolutely love her. She explained everything to me in a way that I understand. She made me feel comfortable. She made me feel happy. She made me smile, and she gave me a great big hug after the visit. So I am so, so thankful for this doctor that I had that day. Thank you again.
This was the first time that I met Lauren, and she was excellent. She was very personable, very knowledgeable, and gave one of the best breast exams that I have ever had, and I have had a lot of them. So congratulations to her, and I look forward to seeing her again next year.

Lauren has a great personality and makes you feel welcome and at ease after meeting her for the first time.
She is good, not recommended me to do the extra exam if don't needed. I told her that I feeling the pain at my breast, but, I don't have the sign of any change in my nipple. So, she examined on my breast, and said I don't need go to needle biopsy, or IV exam. I liked her because she is the one not want you do the extra exam for nothing result as she can see me in the front. Thanks Doctor Lauren !

Although Lauren was filling in for my surgeon while the surgeon is on leave, Lauren was very knowledgeable about my medical history. It was a very positive experience.
Lauren was very thorough with the exam. This was the first time that I've met with her. She also was very patient with my questions and appreciated the fact that I was anxious about having an annual visit and suggested that a six-month visit would be fine and was able to have the folks at the desk schedule that for me. I was very pleased with the visit and the follow-up.
Always an amazing experience with a top team! Full of care and compassion for the trauma we feel.
I had stellar care and am very grateful
Nurse Mancuso is very personable and puts the patient at ease. It was my first visit with her and she really was very informed about my medical history-and took the time to review it with me. She also encouraged me to call if I had any questions or concerns.
My recent visit to NP Mancuso, is nice. She's very nice. She explained to me what I am going to do. So I guess all I can say is she's very nice to me during my visit. Okay, thank you.
Telling me to arrive thirty minutes before my appointment which would be 7:30 am for my 8am appointment. so I arrived at 7:30 an had to wait in hallway for office to be open at 7:47 am , once open I was seated in waiting room and called in to exam room by 8:05 which was an excellent time , all good if not for the early arrival time
This was the first meeting I had with Lauren Mancuso since ms Hoenig left the practice. She made me feel very comfortable and listened to everything I had to say. Dr Mancuso was very well informed and answered any questions that I had. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who asked me for recommendation
This was the first time I saw this provider. She was well prepared and had a good summary of my past medical history with her, and we reviewed it before the visit started. She was a very competent and compassionate provider.

I thought it was odd that the new location is not in the old building where the rest of the breast services are. Otherwise, it was perfectly fine. Thank you.
First time with his Dr and I really liked how she took time to explain things to me, and how everything was clear. And also the appointment started just on time no delays.
Thanks. She was very, very patient, understanding, and caring. And she laid a lot of my anxiety. She took care of it. And I'm very, very happy with the way she answered the questions and seemed to be a very nice person too. Thank you.
I really enjoyed meeting Lauren. She made me feel very comfortable and she was very upbeat and positive and friendly, and had all of my history there readily available and was prepared for our time together. So I really am happy to have her, to be working with her going forward.
I am very grateful to the nurses, the doctors, and everyone who is one person and the entire team. I give them 100% because they treat me very well, they seem good, they take care of me, and with God and thank you.
It was a waste of time. The doctor had all my results from the biopsy and other than giving me a breast exam which I just had about 6 weeks ago she felt I didn't need to have anything done at this time. So if she knew the results and nothing had to be done I should not have had to come in.
This is my first time seeing Lauren Mancuso, and she was wonderful. She was so warm. I felt so comfortable. I've been at that practice since 2016, but she is now my new nurse practitioner there. And the reason it was running late is because she was giving such loving care to a patient before me. So no digs on that. I appreciate her very much. Thank you.
Lauren was an absolute delight. She made an uncomfortable office visit, a mammography, very comfortable. She was easy to talk to and she was listening, very, very good and I have already recommended her.
Lauren was extremely thorough and so pleasant!
Lauren Mancuso was very personable and professional. I felt well cared for and understood. Very impressed with the quality of care. Thank you!
I will keep coming back to this facility on my appointment. The office has a friendly atmosphere. Ms. Mancuso is welcoming , acts professionally and sincere.
I hope that Hackensack Meridian continues to accept Blue Cross Blue Shield so I can continue seeing my doctors.

Lauren Mancuso is an outstanding professional. Her bedside manner is warm and reassuring. She truly listened to my concerns and provided me with the proper information that I needed. Lauren Mancuso deserves a bonus. I am so blessed to have her as my caregiver. This was my first experience with her as my caregiver but I left knowing that my exam and my discourse with her was thorough and professional. Lauren is truly one of the best nurse/practitioner that anyone could want for their care. I love her and I feel confident knowing that if I need anything at all she will be there for me. Lauren is fantastic.

This was my first meeting with Lauren Mancuso, and she made me feel very comfortable.
I was seeing Lauren for the first time. I felt very confident in her after the appointment. She was personable, professional, and knowledgeable. I really liked her.
She was very personable, friendly, professional, courteous, polite, made me feel at ease. I enjoyed to visit with her and how she explained everything to me and told me what to do to try to help me, which I really appreciated.
I (26F) saw Lauren yesterday for a breast concern that I've been dealing with since 2023/2024. Despite having an ultrasound and MRI in late 2024, my symptoms persisted-and even "worsened"-so I returned to the practice. This was my first time seeing Lauren, and I truly wish every practitioner was like her. From the moment she walked into the room, her energy was warm, calm, and welcoming-but also refreshingly outgoing. She made me feel completely at ease. I never once felt uncomfortable, whether during the examination or when I asked questions that may have seemed repetitive. Lauren never rushed me. She took her time and made it clear that her goal was for me to leave feeling reassured, informed, and heard. She is an exceptional provider, and I'm incredibly grateful to have seen her.
Lauren Mancuso is a breath of fresh air. She is interactive and caring.
She listened to me throughout our entire visit and gave pauses to really reflect that and explain things in simple terms for me which is super helpful as this can be very complex. I would recommend Dr. Mancuso to my any person looking for a breast specialist with the heart to listen intently to the needs of the person and simplify the facts to stay well informed.
