I've been seeing Dr. Tacopina for a year. She was the one doctor to diagnose my issue and prescribe the correct prescriptions. This after suffering years of doctors treating me with no results. She's my hero.

it was not indicated at time of appointment that only cash was accepted for co-pays. Also there was no call from staff to confirm appointment day and time. I received a call from office, approximately, 4 hours before appointment time and no message was left. I then called back and confirmed the appointment day and time, myself. Again, no mention of cash only for co-pay. When arriving for appointment I was told they only accepted, cash only, for co-pays. Had to go to ATM to get cash. Very aggravating to have to go find ATM. This was not the doctors fault but, rather the staffs fault.
