Provides care only to stop filing claim forms to receive disability over time. I had surgery and was provided disability benefits by Dr. Grasso's staff. Over the course of 3 Months of recovery after developing healing complications, Dr. Grasso simply refused to fill out claim forms for further disability payments. This forced me to report back to work while not being medically cleared to return back to work.
How is someone able to pay their bills with no money?

Dr. Grasso looked after me during my recent lengthy stay at GBMC for serious complications of diverticulitis and a colostomy. I was pretty much of a mess physically and mentally but his frequent visits to my bedside were very comforting and helpful. He is clearly a kind and very knowledgeable surgeon and I am extremely grateful to have been under his care.

Rude and arrogant Despite Dr. Grasso's exam reporting seeing the current external hemorrhoids, he proceeded to tell me that my symptoms of pain and bleeding did not match what he saw and " patients come to him wanting hemorrhoids removed and make up symptoms so he will remove them." This man just called me a liar!!! Then tells me if it bleeds on a Tuesday or Thursday to then call and see if I can be seen that day, sure I will plan when the thrombosed hemorrhoid bursts! Horrible experience.

Just had the worst experience. My appointment was at 9:45 and I was waiting g from 9:30. The office showed up at 10 and said traffic was bad. Then they didn't have the right key. The doctor wasn't there. One of the office staff was a man who had a thick accent. He said his name was John Doe. He was extremely argumentive and told me to find another doctor. I have never experienced anything like this! My time means nothing. I wonder how competent this doctor is?

I've been a patient of Dr. Grasso for 19 years. He is highly concerned about the well-being of his patients. He listens not only to your to problem but also to your concerns and fears. His responses are very calming.
The doctor's whole staff (scheduling, nurses, techs, etc.) is very responsive to your needs and concerns also.
I highly recommend this doctor and his practice.

I was pretty afraid to schedule my colonoscopy but I am soooooo glad it's over now!
His staff seems to really love him and that speaks volumes, to me at least!
Dr. Grasso is not a very "chatty" guy (hence the very short wait time) though he does make sure you understand everything he is saying and exactly what to expect.
I would highly recommend Dr. Grasso and his staff!
Most importantly, if you haven't had your over 50 colonoscopy yet, DO IT........... The colon cleansing is the worst part

Dr. Grasso's communication was not very good. He did not explain the level of pain or the long recovery period associated with the outpatient procedure he performed (so all of those things came as a surprise), and when I had complications during the healing process he ignored some of my requests for more information. During office visits he seemed aggravated if I didn't understand his explanations and asked for clarification. Helpful staff, but I would not recommend Dr. Grasso to anyone.

I was beyond impressed with my experience at Dr. Francesco Grasso’s office. I would highly recommend this medical group (The Endoscopy Center at Bel Air)! The offices were clean and they ran on time. My entire experience from my first phone call to the moment I walked out the door was beyond positive. I am very happy my wife recommended that I see Dr. Grasso. Dr. Grasso was amazing!

Procedure was done at the Bel Air center. Personnel were knowledgeable and friendly, they put us at ease. Very professional staff, the doctor was very late : ( but the staff had everyone ready to go when he did arrive so we were able to get through in a reasonable time frame.

I would absolutely recommend Dr Grasso and his staff to anyone looking for good old fashioned patient care. I had my preliminary visit with Dr Grasso and lightly mentioned my concern about being perforated during colonoscopy. He stood up and gently invited me into his office where he quietly and patiently addressed my concern with factual reassuarance.
On the day of my procedure, everyone from the front desk back was kind and helpful. I could've asked any question of any person.
