“Dr. Iannicello was awesome! They had a really packed afternoon, so I had a really long wait but he was so apologetic, which was really nice - most Dr.'s don't really care. He was super kind and extremely thorough, I really felt like he was listening to me and he took his time to explain things to me, even using visual aids and immediately knew the issue just from my explanation & his thorough exam. I have gone to some Dr.'s who are quick to prescribe an immediate MR and shots, etc but I appreciate the course he recommended, starting with some at-home PT, simple anti-inflammatories and if not better THEN we go to the bigger stuff. Highly recommend!”
