I walked into the reception area, signed in, in less than 10 minutes I was called to the exam room. One of the girls came in and asked some general questions. Dr. Giachetto came in the exam room, we spoke for a time about my symptoms and he gave me his opinion. He said exactly what I had expected but instead of saying, "lets try this and let's try that, (as I'd been getting from my first Dr. I saw for this), he simply said "let's get this fixed and stop the pain once and for all". That is EXACTLY what he did. That was maybe 18 months to 2 years ago and still no problems. Trust him, he will help you.

My wife and I are both patients of Dr Giaccetto and are very pleased with the outcomes of our visits. My wife had seen 2 other doctors with her foot problem and had poor results. We then were told about the aforementioned doctor and he treated her problem. After treatment she was walking without pain that she had had for months. I,myself had shoulder and hip problems and was treated by him with very pleasing results. I would highly Reccomend this doctor.

After 2 months worth of visits (4 or 5) I took my son to another Doctor where he was operated on the next day and diagnosed with ostyomyolosis. He is in a wheel chair and has a pick line inserted for direct injection of antibiotics. We are hoping he keeps his big toe although his present doctor can not garantee it.
