I found him very helpful and explains everything very well for the lay person. On my initial visit he took all the time I needed with me. He was very personable as well and has good bedside manner. He did my cardiac Cath and I have no complaints

I have little good to say about Local Doctors. Dr Parente is the exception. Excellent Care, he listens, I trust him, I will not go to any Doctor in this area except Dr Parente. I was a Corporate Executive at the Largest Medical Company in the World. I know a good Doctor.

I find the Dr. to be an upbeat type person, willing to explain in pretty simple terms, the treatment or explain how there are things you can do to improve your health. Never hurries me, and answer's my wife's questions and mine, for clarification.

My Mom has been a patient of Dr. Parente for over 16 years, which is saying a lot! He will never, ever rush his patients, which is the only reason I gave a 3 for waiting time. He has been a wonderful doctor to my Mom.
