So thankful to Dr Tesser over the last 23 years. He always has my back and making sure to help me control my RA. Very attentive and knowledgeable on what may or may not help to control the symptoms. Best doctor in my opinion.

Dr Tesser is always pleasant to see. He has been my doctor for 15+ years. I see other specialists for migraines and I seem to compare them to his companion and knowledge. No comparison the others fail.
