Dr. Joseph P Direnzo Jr DO has been my only dr. for the past 10 years. And will continue to be until he pronounces me dead! He is simply the best. And to even try and compare someone else would be frivolous!

Dr Direnzo and Dr Matozzo are just fantastic. Dr Matozzo treated my mother and father as if they were his own parents. They both loved him as he was honest, friendly, and very down to earth. I always knew that , as a caretaker for both of my parents, I had Dr. Matozzo's support. What do I say about Dr Direnzo? This man definitely chose the right profession. My first reaction upon meeting him was "What a nice guy!!!!!!" Dr Direnzo really cares about his patients and will do all that it takes to ease your comfort both physically AND emotionally. The office staff is VERY hard working but will always find the time to accommodate you with ease and friendliness.
