Dr Ianotti got right to the details of my case. He explained my solution well and I am cofident I will have great results!
Dr. Iannotti is Amazing, he took the time to explain what may be wrong, ordered an MRI & a referral to a Pain Management Dr. with Core. He has a great personality and a caring spirit.
If you come in feeling this is your last hope. This doctor will help you feel there is no hope and he doesn't use any compassion at all. Of course people like him did nothing wrong.
Just waiting to schedule my surgery soon. He was really good at explaining what the surgery will involve.
Gereat doctor! Listens, and covers it all--good, bad, and ugly. Highly reccomend him!!!
We are very happy we found Dr. Iannotti, everything went very well with surgery and recovery!
He Was very informative and explained every thing.
Knows his stuff, however, VERY brusque and doesn’t want to be interrupted with questions, pretty insensitive to my mom as he was far too quick and too busy to help her understand what he was saying.
Very friendly and clearly listed details about the surgery in easy to understand terms
Very thorough and good advice.
