Patient Reviews
Dec 14, 2023
Most patients are happy that Dr . Taranto is 'excellent listener'. It is important what the patient will listen from doctor. With so irrelevant reviews I am hesitated to choose Dr. Taranto as primary care physician or no. It is very unfortunate that reviews are not written fron only intelligent people with descent IQ.
