Dr. Marino is an Awesome doctor, One thing that sets him aside from other doctors is he makes you feel as if you are the only patient he has. I never felt rushed and I never waited long once I was placed in a room. He is a caring doctor, he fixed my shoulder just the way he explained. He is also so very handsome to look at ladies. This doctor is a must see if you are having upper body joint problems.

I saw Dr. Marino with Dr. Aldridge. He is a fellow (I think that means he is doing training after his initial training). they were both great. He took the time to actually listen to me (rare these days), examined my hand, and explained in understandable terms what was wrong and all the options for treating it. Dr. Aldridge reiterated exactly what Dr. Marino had gone through. The whole experience put me at ease if i ever do need surgery.
