Provider Reviews

Total waste of time seeing this doctor. I would.t recommend him to anyone. The fact that I have to pay for this appointment is a joke because he didn't do anything other than laugh and dismiss me. Find someone else to see.

Review for Dr. Massari

Dr May is wonderful. She listens, encourages questions and provides answers at a comfortable pace. I never felt rushed. She is so genuine...always want to hug her!

Review for Dr. Matkiwsky

Dr. Fusman was introduced to me when my spouse was admitted to MMH last year (March 2024). He was experiencing chest pain, so we drove to the ER @ 3:30am and discovered after various tests that he was actually having a heart attack. Emergency surgery was scheduled as he had blockage in one valve...

Review for Dr. Fusman

She sounded ok but will not approve medication I have been using for 10 years and helps me from dying of a grand maul seizure. I've already had 2 and I don't think I can survive another one!
