Very disappointed! I was a patient for EIGHT years and was dismissed because I complained about the staff and their poor scheduling and patient interactions.

As a concierge patient, we are promised same day or next day appointments but when I called to schedule for slightly urgent matter I was given an appointment 30 days out. I used concierge texting privilege to the doctor regarding the long wait, but received no reply, that is, until I complained publicly.

Thats when he called to tell me "I don't appreciate your comment on my Facebook page". Then I received a formal letter for dismissal. Too bad their answer to complaints is dismissal rather than improving their services. My comment was removed on FB and I was blocked from the doctor's medical page while still a concierge patient.

At first I thought I shouldn't have complained because it caused all of this, but after speaking with a lawyer he informed me that my complaint was very valid and they weren't holding up to their side of the concierge agreement. Also, that it may be considered patient abandonment because I was in the middle of treatment and didn't receive services I required at the time. Unfortunate I have to pursue legal action.

I've been a client of Dr. Petteruti for about 6 years. When I had my first visit, I was a hot mess going thru menopause. The visit with Dr. Petteruti was thorough, and after we discussed every detail and having COMPLETE blood work, I started Bioidentical Hormone Replacement therapy. And believe me, I felt like a new woman! Not just the physical but emotional, he was there for me. He has a GREAT staff, always friendly and very helpful.
