Patient Reviews
May 19, 2017
I would recommend Dr. Rizzo very highly to anyone who is looking for a good no-nonsense surgical oncologist. She treated me with respect and she and her team were very engaged and professional. Everyone in the hospital (even other departments) spoke highly of her. I liked that she was very frank and recommended the right options. She took the time to explain all the good and bad from my diagnosis. The surgery was almost flawless and I am very glad I went with Dr. Rizzo at St. Joseph's hospital.
