A little history: I and my mother were some of Dr Mutterperl's first patients. That goes back to the late 80's.. so do the math. I, over the years, have had several bumps with the Dr. and his staff. Like when I was still a surgical asst and had a finger poke on the job. His the staff member, Carol Jo, insisted on an outdated regime as a response. I hung up on the fool, who then called my mother (mother extremely brittle COPD) and FREAKED HER OUT ! I should have sued then.
Can't enumerate the # of times I had to fight with staff to get appointments or get a question answered; But with the dearth of competent care in Bayonne my mother wanted to stick with him.
During her final days, I thank her Pulmonary team for their comfort-this guy was useless and absent!
2013I'm admitted to hospital for diverticulitis: told by this guy just how bad it was; in patient 10 days! Upon release I sought the advice ofa well know specialist in NYC, who after exam and reviewing the same CT scans Mutterperl had concluded, that I was hospitalized because "you Dr. Must have wanted a new car"!!!!!!!!!! Totally unnecessary hospitalization.
I was thrilled when his partner, Tobi Ippolito, MD, left Bayonne to join the Summit Medical Group Team.
