I went to Dr. Forlizzi for a second opinion after I was still having issues post-two knee surgeries performed by another surgeon and from the minute I met her, I knew I should have gone to her from the start. She made me feel heard and is finally helping me move forward with my recovery. She immediately got additional imagining and I received results within the same week of seeing her. Very grateful to be working with her moving forward.
