“It's great to find a medical practitioner that listens to patients. I do not have the expertise or experience that Leah LaRussa has, but I know what I feel like and struggle with. It's nice to work with someone that takes my concerns and walks me through different solutions.”
“My experience as Dr. Rossi patient was very good. He always listened to what I had to say about how I was feeling whether good or bad and would suggest possible solutions. I considered him a very good doctor.”
“Dr. King really took the time to listen. He didn't take my previous diagnosis at face value; he took the time to understand my personal symptoms. He explained the functions of medication and went over side effects. I know that finding the right regimen can take a while, but Dr. King has a game plan for me. I feel confident in him. For the first time in a very long time, I feel hopeful. Thank you Dr. King!”
