I leave this comment to honor the kindness of this physician. I have been a RN for nearly 20 years and have the opportunity to work with hundreds of doctors. My daughter was referred for care and after asking many friends and colleagues, I was convinced he would be great. I can’t express enough the gentleness and kindness this MD exudes. His genuine care, compassion and outright humanity is evident the minute he begins to speak. I can honestly say it is one of the best bedside manners I have ever experienced. Every single detail explained in a way that anyone could understand, regardless of background. He is an asset to our community and feel blessed to have received care through his gifted hands and as a mother, truly grateful for his treatment of my daughter! Well done Doc! ??????????????????????????

He is one of the best doctors I have ever experienced and I have experienced a lot. He is gentle and kind. Oh and he is good at what he does. Did I say he is handsome?

I am a patient of Dr Pugliese. He is compassionate, has an outstanding bedside manner and never makes you feel rushed. He answers all of your questions and calls you as soon as he gets your pathology results back. I have referred many people to him. We are extremely blessed to have him in our medical community.

Having a cancer scare is probably one of the most frightening of life events. Dr. Pugliese explained everything clearly to me. The surgery went very well. It was so good, I didn't even have any bruising. He is precise and talented. Couple that with an awesome bedside manner of warmth and kindness and you can't have a better doctor. I felt very confident that all will be well with him handling my case. He was really fantastic. I hope nothing ever happens to those reading my review, but if it does, you're in the best hands if Dr. Pugliese is your doctor. He spends as much time as you need to make sure you're comfortable and understand any process or procedure.

Dr. Pugliese has always been kind, considerate and, above all, competent in his treatment of me. I would recommend him to anyone with breast cancer.
