Wish I could give a negative star. Not speaking about him as a person, but as a surgeon/doctor. Extremely rude and careless resulting in mistakes. Not able to ask questions. Very prideful. Does not treat patients as people with lives and loved ones. Views them as a piece of meat to cut open. For your own safety, do not see him or send your loved ones to him.

He took his time answered my questions. We very kind and knowledgeable. After reading the other reviews , I was skeptical but I'm not to concerned with a specialist bedside manners. I want someone who knows what they are doing and Dr. Lo Presti was awesome. I wouldn't hesitate to go to him!!!

I DO NOT recommend Dr. Joesph S. LoPresti. I was asking him questions for my own understanding of the treatment about to be performed and he started yelling at me! He seemed so angry at me for no reason and I asked him if there was a problem and he said that I kept questioning his opinion. He doesn't explain anything well and that's why I had so many questions. He was being very aggressive that it made me very uncomfortable and afraid of him. I refused to have anything done after that and I will not be returning.
