“I appreciate the calm and knowledgable demeanor of Dr. Palatucci– he is good at asking questions and reading my disposition. I always learn something new about health or how the body works after each visit we have. A few years ago, Dr. Palatucci recommended that I exercise regularly and what an amazing benefit this has had to my physical, mental and emotional health.... wish I had him as a doctor decades ago. ”
