Patient Reviews
Oct 04, 2022
Dr Cannata sat down and explained my condition in detail. He spent 45 mins with me to make sure I understood my condition. Dr Cannata also went over my non-surgical questions, and I was impressed by his overall knowledge regarding health concerns unrelated to surgery. At the end of my appointment, he gave me some handouts to help guide me through my disease. I have highly recommend this physician to friends in the community. Love his New York style of friendliness, being “present” during my appointment (not staring at the computer). Staff was friendly and the wait time quick.
