“I was unsure about using a service like this that linked me to an independent provider that didn't seem affiliated with one of the big systems. It's so hard to know what kind of experience you'll get. Don't be unsure about scheduling with Dr. Picone - this was one of the best medical experiences I've had. He's thorough, thoughtful and listens. Unlike most Dr's that usher you out in 20 minutes, he spent almost an hour with me. The office is clean and modern and his staff is efficient, friendly and clearly care about where they work. I hope I don't have to be back, but if I did this is where I would go.”
