I thought Dr. Deriso seemed knowledgeable about my condition. He was able to look at my test results with me and show me some things on my heart monitor study. He seemed genuinely concerned about my health. He also looked into my family history. He also did a complete exam. He didn't rush and answered all of my questions as well as both of my daughter's questions. All in all I was satisfied with the care that he provided. I couldn't help but wonder, is this service going to be continued or was this service great because it was my first visit? I look forward to continuing to trust my care to Dr. Deriso and Wellstar.

Dr Deriso provides suggestions that are useful to all aspects of my heart issues. He takes time and asks questions before suggesting. We talked about better hydration with electrolytes and not just water. It's very much appreciated. He's also willing to work with me on scheduling when I get called out of town. A true asset to Wellstar.
