Third time at this office. First two times it was like an assembly line. In and out without much care. Same script for everyone. Last visit ended up waiting over an hour past my appointment time. Was completely ignored. Ended up leaving without ever being seen.

Dr. Matarese office had a friendly atmosphere and had comfortable waiting room. Him and his staff were warm and friendly. He gave me the no nonsense facts of what's going on with my injury. I left his office not only knowing more about my injury, but the options I had to recovery. I was very satisfied in the choices made for my recovery.
