SAM FILICIOTTO

Love love love him! I won’t go anywhere else!

Dr Filiciotto was very personable, knowledgeable, and informative. We were very anxious about my husband’s condition and he eased our anxiety with a very understandable explanation of what was happening. Fortunately, the situation resolved without surgery but we were grateful he would have been our surgeon had he needed it.

Dr Filiciotto did An excellent job with my father. It was early in the pandemic and I was heartbroken that I could not be there with him. Dr. Filiciotto helped put my mind at ease. He did an excellent job clearing my fathers intestinal blockage. I cannot say enough good things about him.

Dr Sam did a very thorough interview , exam, review of my radiological studies which took 2 hours... he practices like a country doctor... and I mean this as a compliment.

I ended up in the hospital with really bad stomach pains and ended up having to get my gallbladder removed. Dr. Filiciotto came and took over an hour to explain the whole procedure to me and my husband who was on the phone.. Due to covid my husband and family were unable to be in the hospital with me. I was so scared and filed with so much anxiety. He then after explaining the surgery and procedure asked if I would like to say a prayer. I was amazed that this doctor not only took the time he genuinely cared. My nerves and anxiety were relieved and I knew I was in good hands. The surgery went well and I feel so much better! I am truly grateful for Dr.FIliciotto!

Thank you for taking your time explaining everything to us. Thank you

My husband was in the ICU at Pomerado hospital and Dr. Sam (as he's called) was brought in to consult. When he called, he wanted to know all about my husband, not just about his health. Who he was, what his hobbies were, etc. No surgeon has ever asked those kinds of questions. He's excellent at explaining things so a non-medical person can understand. He was always willing to answer whatever questions I had. He didn't end up having to do surgery and even after my husband was moved he called to check up and see how he was doing. Most doctors don't do that much less a surgeon. Without a doubt if I were to choose a surgeon he would be my first choice!!!!

Dr Felliciato saved my life ! He was awesome, very personable and humble .Im very greatful to him.

The medical profession benefits greatly from physicians like Dr. Filiciotto! I cannot express how amazing he truly is. His bedside manner is the best you can get, he values his patients, genuinely listens, learns about your needs/wants, and is just such a warm person. I never felt like I was just another patient he had to filter through, he is so personable and just feels like a family member. He is experienced, knowledgeable, and I received great results from the double mastectomy he performed on me. A genuine and caring doctor. Highly recommend!

Dr. Filiciotto performed an emergency gall bladder removal for me while I was on vacation in San Diego. I feel so fortunate that he was the doc on call the night I landed in Pomorado Hospital. I had a very quick recovery from a potentially life threatening situation that included a gangrenous and infection gall bladder. His skill allowed me to get my life back quickly and I am so grateful to him. Plus his personality was a delight.
