Dr. Licata is a wonderful surgeon! I had emergency appendectomy and she was so kind, polite and professional. She explained everything and answered all my questions. Follow-up care was wonderful as well. She is thorough and have excellent bedside manners which many doctors lack in.

Dr. Licata has been a fantastically caring and excellent surgeon. I worked for 31 years in the health care field and seldom have I experienced such concern for the patient. I felt at ease at our first encounter. She explained the procedure and everything was done in the most professional manner. Thank you Dr. Licata

Dr. Licata is simply amazing. Hands down the best surgeon I have ever had and could not imagine having a better experience. Dr. Licata is thoughtful and caring. She explains all of your options and clearly has your best interests at heart. I was able to heal quickly with almost no scarring at all. I would highly recommend her to anyone. As far as surgeons go, she is the best.

Dr. Licata is outstanding. She was brought in to see me in the hospital when i was very sick and she was unbelievably caring and sympathetic. She has a gentle touch accompanied with a warm caring heart. I have since been following up with her in the office and I am extremely happy. If anyone has the opportunity to need to choose a surgeon then she is your pick. She's a breath of fresh air in the medical field. Also need to rave about the office staff, each and everyone of them are great.

I saw Dr. Licata with regards to removing a lipoma behind my right ear. Her sincerity and willingness to help was very apparent. I had two attempts that were not successful by a plastic surgeon. The job he did was incomplete. She listened, showed me respect, and scheduled my surgery rapidly. She is a highly skilled surgeon. I am thankful that I found her.
