Because of the covid 19 the meeting was short and distant. However, we covered all of the necessary items and made an appointment for a colonoscopy for an undetermined future.

Very pleasant

I like dr. Cossentino but i don't like the office, I have to reschedule my colonoscopy appointment but nobody answer the phone and when you live a message with the assistant, she never call you back, very unprofessional.
Dr. Cossentino had to consult in the ER and was very apologetic. Good guy and I will continue seeing him for his excellent care!
