Dr. Pitera is knowledgeable, caring, honest and genial. I have been trusting his professional decisions since 1996. Along with his assistant and office manager, Celia, they provide a very friendly, informal and yet professional experience. Highly recommended.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams.
