I had taken my parents to see Dr. DeGennaro for years and he was always kind and compassionate to them. He has also treated me with the same qualities.

Treated by Louie since 1972. He caught a severe sinus infection that could have been fatal. In 24 hours, my fever went from 104 to normal. Doctor has reduced his hours. I will always consider him a close and valued friend.

Dr. DeGennaro has performed tonsilectomy and adenoidectomy surgeries on two of my children in the past three years. His wisdom is irreplaceable and his hands are rock steady. Our children recovered quickly with no complications. His bedside manner is genuine and considerate. He sees to his patients personally post-op and reviews their progress personally before release, which is not typical of other surgeons. Trust him.

IN THE PAST DR. DEGENNARO WAS A GREAT. BUT AS TIMES HAVE CHANGED HE HAS NOT MOVED FORWARD. HE PERFORMED SURGERY ON ME AND I HAVE HAD MORE SINUS PROBLEMS SINCE.
