Felt reassured and confident in his clear diagnostic.
Dr.Amorosa was extremely kind and helpful. He took the time to listen and answer all my questions. I felt very comfortable and at ease.
Good doctor listened well Good knowledge
Dr. Amorosa is very knowledgeable and professional.
Had my three week follow up appointment with the amazing doctor Lou Amorosa! God has given him an extraordinary gift. He has taken my pain away, and has made my spine almost completely straight again. Such a humble man and awesome bedside manner. He visited me every day when I was in the hospital, even on a Sunday.
No instructions or advice given in reference to the patient’ X-Rays results/condition.
Very pleasant demeanor and good direct discussion of his findings
Dr Amorusa took the time to explain everything to me and answered all my questions. He was very personable.
We had a great discussion he explained my spine issue and why he couldn’t do anything with my old fracture and collapsed disk. He was very thorough. I would see him again if I needed too.
Excellent caring
