It's about time: Best thing about Dr. Callari is you can expect NO nonsense, straightforward. He's not going to hold your hand. The treatment he will perform is a life-changing thing for me and I feel confident putting that in his hands. He is professional and reciprocates humorously. No one likes going to the doctor, but I am going to assume he is a doctor that other doctors see themselves. Being on ZocDoc he is officially "with the program" I rate 5/5 stars.
