Doctor Fortunato is a good man who listens to your issues and likes to bring a sense of humor to his patient visits. I recommended him to my wife's grandparents and they both like him too.
Verified patient
He didn't do much in the way of listening to our concerns or checking out our issues. Didn't seem very interested in helping. Probably won't go back.
Vincent has incredible bedside manner. He was very thorough and interested in me, not getting me out the door. I would highly recommend him! Great sense of humor as well.
Verified patient
I've seen this doctor before so I am not a new patient. Three out of 4 times I've seen him I had to wait 2 hours minimal just to see him and one of those times I had Mono really bad and told them at the office it was hard for me the breathe but that didn't seem to matter because they made me wait 3 hours that time. Also he gave me a prescription and when I went to the pharmacy to turn it in they said they have no records of the doctors office ever prescribing me and now the doctors office wants me to come in again.
Verified patient
Dr. Fortunato is a very caring and knowledgeable doctor. It took 30 minutes to see him. My biggest complaint was how scattered he seemed to be. He didn't look at my chart to see what the intake nurse had written, and he seemed to rush me out of the door before answering follow up questions. I don't know if I would return.
Though he took a lot of time with me, he didn't look at test results that I had brought with me. He ordered some of the same tests that I've, all of those results were what I brought to the office with me. I know I'll have issues with insurance paying for those things twice in such a short amount of time.
He's a great doctor!
