Jan 26, 2019
Best pulmonologist around by far! He always takes time to make sure you have every need met, which can result in slight delays but never fear, Dr Tello will also give you as much time as you need, too. Most caring and professional! Literally saved my life and treats my husband and several friends. We always recommend Dr Tello!
