Dr Castellano was very knowledgeable. He took time to explain what was happening. I also appreciated his manner in handling my condition. Not running unwarranted tests unless the condition persisted.

Excellent. His examination was thorough and he fully answered all my questions. He was not hurried and spent whatever time was necessary to explain everything.

Great Doctor. Lengthy wait time. I seemed invisible to some of the Admin staff while they discussed insurance issues instead of greeting/checking me in...(maybe just an off day?)

I thoroughly enjoyed meeting Dr. Castellano and his staff. Everyone was SO incredibly kind. The doctor talked with me for an hour, making sure I felt comfortable with all my options and decisions I needed to make. Dr. Castellano was also very informative and thorough in his explanations- he DEFINITELY made me feel 100% important and that he was 100% confident in his work. I walked out very prepared for what's to come and also very happy that I had the chance to meet him.
