  • Dr. Santoro and his team, have always provided excellent care and understand my problems and always suggest ways to help. Only see him once every five years but he acts like we see each other once a month! Always on top of my situation and offers top notch advice. Highly recommend Dr. Santoro.
    Dr. Santoro is the most wonderful Dr. Who listens to you, remembers you (writes notes about your personal life and references that when you see him two years later) and honestly more Dr's should learn how to do this! He's one of the best Dr's out there!!!
    Amazing doctor. Thank you for everything.
    Dr Santoro and his NP are always courteous and professional. They have excellent rapport with patients and respond to questions and concerns.
    I have nothing but good things to say about this provider.
