Patient Reviews
Oct 05, 2023
I had a procedure on my eyelids. Afterwards, I had alarming bleeding. Dr. Giacometti phoned me not once, but two separate days to answer my questions . In fact, he returned phone messages within a very short time frame. His assurance was all that was needed. Who does this anymore!!! Great job. Highly recommend and wish other doctors would take a lesson from him.
