I have some nasal spray that is, I've been trying to get refilled and so far that has not happened. I'm not sure what it's going to take to get it to happen. So that's where I'm at with that.

Dr. Lucchese is the kindest doctors I have ever had. He is also one of the most thorough. He always lets me know what he's doing and what he's thinking about my particular pain, which I really appreciate. He also always works me in when I need it. I am so thankful to have found this man and have him as my doctor.

Nothing that he, Scott Lucchese, he could do better. Everything's always perfect. He's very attentive to my cluster headaches and always checking up on me just above and beyond. Bedside men are the best I've ever had with any doctor in my life. Super awesome.

He was a great doctor. He seemed like he cared a lot about my health and he seemed like he knew about it a lot about what was wrong with me and when he didn't understand, he didn't know what's wrong with me, he tried really hard to figure out what's wrong with me and that's great in a doctor and I'm really appreciative.
