December 24, 2025Maureen L.Verified patient
Office was very modern and waiting area was large and comfortable. Reception staff was friendly and helpful. After filling out new patient forms my wait was short and I was brought in by a PA who told me doctor would be in shortly and he was. Doctor asked a series of questions and sent me for X-rays. After that I was brought back to the room I had been in and doctor arrived shortly after that and explained what X-rays showed. He told me he would be giving me a splint and has the PA come in and fit it for me. All in all it was a smooth experience and all involved were knowledge helpful and caring. I would definitely recommend Dr. Palatto to anyone looking for a hand specialist.

I had a great appointment with the doctor and he took his time to ask me questions. He wanted to try out his own theories, as I had seen another doctor prior, and was not jumping straight into surgery. Made the appointment very comforting, not stressful at all.
