OUR PATIENTS' EXPERIENCE MATTERS

“It is difficult to choose any one member of the staff as being exceptional as all of the staff (all four women who attended to me from check-in to check-out) were very friendly, attended to my comfort, and had wonderful “bed-side” manner. I enjoyed the speedy intake and performance of the exam without any lack of attention or thoroughness. Also, I really appreciated the friendliness and professionalism of staff and physician.”

“Kathy Lemoine’s expertise at injections is very apparent. My Dysport and filler was not as painful. Her manner was warm, as well as professional.”

“Dr. Tanghetti is on the top of the list, he is great, very professional and yet personal and caring.”
