Dr Litynski is a caring and amazing Doctor. The only problem I have is getting an appointment. No appointment available last year and so far 2024 doesn't look promising either. Then when I needed a refill on my prescription a nurse via patient portal told me she would fill it this time but I haven't been in the office to be seen. Hello? Nobody seems able to get an appointment and that rude message upset me. So again great Dr if you can get appointment.

I have great faith in him. I have been seeing him many years. He is not raucous and full of loud jokes, but he has a quiet, ironic sense of humor that I enjoy. I think he knows what he is doing.

Too hurtful to get into. Let’s just say my husband died.

A great doctor, not a hand-holding, warm & fuzzy kind of guy, but an excellent doctor. Needs to follow up more with patients, though.

Dr Litynski is excellent...the office management needs improvement...difficult to make an appointment...sloppy about getting in touch with a returning patient...seems disorganized...need an office manager to coordinate their information flow....
