Waited a little, however for one of the best you dont mind. Strongly recommend him, he is an excellent knowledgeable doctor.

It has been several days since my last appointment with Joseph Bottino M.D. and I'm still bewildered and honestly horrified by the experience. To be fair, I'm not in a position to critique his competence as a dr. Appointments with him were frustrating at best. The wait ranged from 1-2 hours. He never explained test results. When I asked questions or attempted to tell him about a symptom he would either not answer, talk over me, or tell me it wasn't important. On the rare occasion that he did explain something, the answers were pithy and abstract (when tests showed that I had low gamma globulins I asked him what it meant he told me "I don't have allergies") This week a blood test showed that I had mono, herpes 1 & 2. I was (surprise!) upset by this news and I started crying despite trying to keep it together. HE CHASTISED me for my reaction and then proceeded to physically examined me in a way more suited for a prison guard. My 1000 character limit's up- otherwise I'd continue.

Treated for years for CHD prevention, but had to seek another MD due to everything from late [2+ hrs waiting]to his office finally losing my entire medical file. A shame because he's very good, but I just gave up when my file was lost.
