I am an old patient of Dr. A. He was recommended to me from another patient. He is so kind and very thorough. I remember every time i would go for an appt, he would ask me about my neck. Did it hurt? Can you swallow? I had no problems that I could think of with my neck. However, he did...

Review for Dr. Altieri

Though the front office could be more professional, Dr. Mofor is very professional, his bed-side manner, approachable demeaner and knowledge of his practice is TOP NOTCH!

Review for Dr. Mofor

Killed my son… started overprescribing opioids and when he was hospitalized 2 years ago he dropped my son as a patient. Left him addicted with no recourse or resources. Will be prosecuted ! I won’t allow another mother to go through this. He’s a criminal!!!!

Review for Dr. Martin

The staff was friendly and efficient and the Doctor’s “bedside manner” put me at ease and relieved my anxiety.

Review for Dr. Uretzky

I had the absolute best care with Dr Moore. He has retired and I still have not found a doctor to replace him. If there was a option to give him 10 stars I would the whole family was awesome. Dr Moore you are truly missed seriously !!!!
