DR FUSCO SAVED MY LIFE 2 YEARS AGO BY PERFORMING A QUINTIPLE BYPASS ON ME AT AGE 55. BECAUSE OF ALL THE DRUGS AND PAIN AFTER THE SURGERY I NEVER GOT TO PROPERLY THANK HIM AND THE SACRIFICES I'M SURE HIS FAMILY MAKES. I THANK YOU, I LOVE YOU AND THINK OF YOU OFTEN. BEST REGARDS, STEVE OLDERMAN

I was only 25 when I met Dr. Fusco. I have Blebs on the Lungs which caused my lungs to collapse multiple times. Dr. Fusco surgically repairs both my lungs & saved my life multiple times over a span of 11 years. He's very kind, caring & remembered me after not seeing me for 7 years. He knew who I was & remembered my condition. I would recommend Dr. Fusco to anyone !!! I owe him so much. If you're looking for a GREAT lung surgeon ..go no further !

Was very thorough and precise in his diagnosis; did exactly what he said he would do; excellent followup that promoted a rapid recovery; was communicative with a very pleasant bedside manner. One of the best physicians in his field.
