      from thomas 5.0 Stars - (2024-09-12)
  • "I thought I had an appt with Dr. Avvento, whom I think is terrific. Turned out he was away on vacation the day of my appointment and no one told me or I would have rescheduled. I had many questions about a test he ordered and the nurse I saw knew nothing and was not nice. I don’t know why I was there. I took off an afternoon to get there and stayed after they told me the doctor wasn’t there because I didn’t realize what a waste of time it would turn out to be. It was such an upsetting experience I cried in the parking lot."
