Friendly staff. Resident explained the issue very well. Dr. examined and made suggestions for treatment. My only concern is that they were going to let me leave without looking at my images. When I brought it to their attention, they loaded the images, looked at them and explained them to me.

I thoroughly enjoyed my visit with Dr. Scott, he's very very thorough and I really enjoyed having him as my neurologist. I wouldn't trade him for the world and I've only been to him 1 time. Thank you much bye.

Dr. Luccesse was very attentive and listened to all of my symptoms and developed a plan of care for me. I felt my issues were being taken seriously for the first time. I am recommending him to friends and family!

I always appreciate how Dr. Lucchese engages with me, asks questions, and describes options and health information. He is extremely thorough in his examinations and explains thoroughly his interpretations and diagnosis. He is one of few public health physicians whom demonstrates he cares, listens to his patients and holds a wealth of knowledge and experience that he freely shares but not in a condescending manner. Because of these characteristics, I truly trust him with my healthcare. Thanks for the opportunity to share this information.
