Not only is he GREAT, but so is his Nurse Practitioner. Quickly identified my problem as a Baker’s Cyst, suggested injection as first line of treatment. Had it done & it hasn’t hurt since. THANK YOU

Review for Dr. Gray

She did not rush us, took time to explain in layman's terms, and appeared to be very professional. She was also on time, and did not send a nurse practioner as a opposed to a personal consultation

Review for Dr. Zippay

Dr. Dysarz was incredibly quick to see me for my broken hand. At every step of the assessment, surgery, check ups and recovery he and his staff were welcoming, quick, incredibly helpful and made sure I was well aware of what it was that was taking place.
