Dr Fusco was a breath of fresh air for me. I have had many surgeries and many Dr visits over the years. Dr. Fusco is the first Dr. Ive ever had that spent time for me helping with my confusion. I am at peace for now and have a much better outlook on my health issues and would like to thank Dr Fusco personally.

Dr. Fusco was not only extremely knowledgeable, he was also very personable. He took a considerable amount of time to completely explain the situation as he saw It and answered all of my questions very thoroughly.
