This has been my first visit with the doctor and his staff. The customer service was very good. The medical system was very firm and good, showing good and everything. And the doctor, like I said, he explained things very well to me. And I most likely will take his word and belief and trusting in him. So I think overall it was very good. The staff was very cooperative. And that's my rating for them. Okay, most likely it's a nine for all. Thank you.

I came to Dr. Deriso on the referral of a physician I hold in high regard. He recommended Dr. Deriso without hesitation and said he was a cardiologist he trusted completely and who was exceptionally qualified to handle my evaluation and treatment going forward. This was very important to me as my dry first, recent experience with a cardiologist in a different network (Northside) was poor and unnecessarily stressful. Dr Deriso's evaluation, thorough explanations, detailed recommendations for my current and future care, and his "human" manner of care was a welcome change and left me feeling more confident and less anxious about my diagnosis, plan of care and my "new normal". I am grateful to be his patient and that someone I trust suggested that I go to Dr. Deriso for a second opinion and evaluation.
