Patient Reviews
Oct 15, 2022
Dr. Potera and his staff paid attention to my health issues, they didn't make me feel rushed and they made me feel like they really cared. After a thorough exam Dr. Portera explained what he wanted to do to start my road to a pain free life. He understood how to treat Interstitial Cystitis (not that many doctors do), as well as frequent UTIs and other female uro/gyn issues. I was seen promptly and there was no 3 hour wait like I had at my previous Uro doctor (who didn't treat the real problem anyway). THANK you Dr. Portera and staff. I actually cried when I left because someone paid attention and was working toward a cure - or at least relief.
