Patient Reviews
Jul 13, 2022
Dr. Altman is a rare gem! There are very few high-quality doctors with his experience, depth of knowledge available and accessible to see patients with a condition like mine in Central PA. He truly cares about his patients and goes above and beyond to provide them with answers, resources and quality care for their condition.
