My only and I mean only issue was I had an hours wait.
Dr. M. Pagnatto is a great doctor and communicator. You go to him and he analyses your situation and tries to figure it out. He tries one solution and if not helping he looks into it more and continues on you journey.
Very pleased with Dr. Pagnotto.
Excellent care
Very friendly and to the point. Discussed my concerns.
Dr. Pagnotto spent time understanding the constellation of symptoms I had been having and was confident that the therapy he was recommending would address the issue. I appreciate that he was not recommending surgical intervention as a first option. Very kind, compassionate and personable. I have friends that have been his patient and their high opinion of his was well deserved. Highly recommend Dr. Pagnotto!
Dr. P is vey experienced and knowledgeable, and he explains surgical options, procedures, and their respective risks and benefits clearly. My operation was performed exactly as he described, and my recovery has been as he described, except faster.
The best care ever! I can’t believe my life now versus this time last year! He calls the evening before to ease any anxiety. I was late the day of surgery because of bad weather but he didn’t act as if I ruined his whole day because of it. His PA’s are just as good!
I saw PA Lauren today! She is amazing! Thank you!
Excellent all the way around. Made me as if I was his only patient.
