My visit could not have gone any better. Making the decision to be under the care of Dr. Pastuszko was the best decision. He has to be one of the most caring, detailed, empathetic doctor have had, along with the best bedside manner. He definitely made preop and post op as comfortable as possible. I cannot thank Pastuszko enough for keeping me healthy.
