I was so fortunate to have Dr. Nuzzo!!! On 1-4-24 I fell in my bathroom and fx my rt femur. On 1-5-24 Dr. Nuzzo did an ORIF on my leg. I live in Colorado Springs and Dr. Nuzzo was helping out at St. Francis Hospital. I've been in the medical field for 37 yrs and I'm saying he is a true blessing to anyone who is fortunate to have him. I so so appreciate him. Thank youKatre Roland.
