Toni Beninato, MD, FACS, MS

I had a huge thyroid nodule for many years and finally decided to have surgery. The surgery of removing left thyroid was performed by Dr Toni Beninato in early September in Robert wood Johnson Hospital. Dr Beninato is a great surgeon and I even didn’t need the pain medication after the surgery. No damage to my vocal cords. Now the scar is almost invisible. Thank you Dr Beninato and the team😊

THYROIDectomy. I waited several years before having my left thyroid removed, because I was afraid of the scar it would possibly leave. Update: Dr. Toni Beninato performed an AMAZING thyroidectomy which is not visible to the naked eye. Dr. Beninato was caring, explained the procedure and has outstanding bedside manners. Hopefully, this helps anyone who needs a thyroidectomy. RWJ.

Dr. Beninato is an exceptionally skilled and compassionate surgeon who performed my total thyroidectomy with central and lateral neck dissection with precision and care — I would give her 10 out of 5 if I could. From the very beginning, she made me feel at ease with her calm, confident presence. She answered all of my questions and concerns with clarity, warmth, and genuine kindness, which made a big difference during a stressful time. Her reassuring demeanor and professionalism gave me complete trust in her abilities. I felt safe, supported, and cared for every step of the way. The surgery went exactly as planned—on time and completed in a single procedure. I had previously been strongly advised at Penn Medicine to have two separate surgeries due to recovery and risk considerations, but

Dr. Beninato performed parathyroid surgery on me June 10th, 2024. I had gone to see her earlier in the year and she explained in a very understandable way just what was wrong and what the benefits of a parathyroidectomy would be. The surgery was just what I needed to bring my numbers back to where they should be and hopefully will help in reducing my osteoporosis. She had assured me the scar would be minimal and when I attended a wedding a month later it was already barely noticeable. When I went back for my six-month checkup my numbers were perfect, and the scar could hardly be seen, even under a makeup mirror. Choosing a doctor for surgery can be a little daunting but I am positive I chose the correct one with Dr. Beninato. I would highly recommend her when in need of an endocrine

I’m 25F and at the time of this review, I am about 4 weeks post-op. I chose Dr. Beninato at RWJ/Rutgers Cancer Institute for my total thyroidectomy and modified radical neck dissection after being diagnosed with thyroid cancer. Before deciding, I consulted with several renowned institutions, including MSK, NYU, Columbia, and Hackensack. While I am grateful to have had access to such incredible professionals, I ultimately chose Dr. Beninato for her kindness, attention to detail, professionalism, prompt responsiveness, and compassionate demeanor. Dr. Beninato went above and beyond my expectations. She’s patient, non-judgmental, and creates a safe space to process and ask questions. Every concern I had was addressed thoroughly, and her bedside manner was incredible. My surgery was successf
