Patient Reviews

Sep 19, 2024

So glad I found Dr DeFoto, coming from NYC having the same doctor for 20 years who I loved. I first went to a doctor in cedar sinai who I didn’t love plus he moved to Palm Springs. Then because of covid it was hard to find a doctor who was taking new patients. So I went to an PA for almost 2 years before finding Dr DeFoto. Now I feel like I am back in NYC. Dr DeFoto really cares and very smart man.
