Dr. Gargano is a dedicated doctor who was very attentive to my needs and concerns. He is a man of his word and let me know exactly what to expect. He reassured me of any worries that I had along the healing process. His office staff was very responsive, friendly and available. It’s wonderful to be able to take a deep breathe without feeling like I have asthma! I’m now working to improve my poor posture developed over my many years of being self conscious and uncomfortable. I’m so pleased that I can now go back to the gym and maybe even do real jumping jacks! It has helped my frozen shoulder and lessened my neck pain. Now I can go find out my new bra size without 5 hooks and extra wide straps - goodbye 42G. Thanks Dr. G, from Terry

My surgeon was available for any questions via his direct cell and made time in his schedule for visits on an urgent need. I appreciate the direct contact and support from my surgeon and his team. Look forward to the final results soon!
