Patient Reviews
Aug 20, 2024
I’ve been a patient of Dr Puglia for sometime now. She is nothing short of amazing to me. I feel she’s intelligent and had me diagnosed on my first visit. I had seen several Dr’s prior whom just could not come up with plan nor correct diagnosis. If you understand her approach is in the best interests of you, then you get her. After all she certainly knows more than I.
