Patient Reviews
Dr. Sforza was not an alarmist and explained everything and answered all my questions. Kathy at the front desk made me feel like family.
I was a little nervous about going for my appointment, but once I met Dr. Sforza, I was at ease. He even used light humor to calm me down. He was very friendly and his office and staff made me very comfortable. I felt like I knew him for years. He took the time to explain all the procedures to me. He readily answered my questions. I will recommend him to friends and family.
