Patient Reviews
Jan 25, 2023
Dr Porpiglia did my breast cancer surgery in July 2021. She was thorough, caring and had excellent rapport with her staff as well as with me. Her caring attitude was much appreciated when later she stepped in to help me find a second opinion about chemotherapy. Again, later in my treatment, even though the surgery was complete, I believe her to be the team leader in my follow up care. She’s not rushed, and puts the patient needs first. She listens.
