My son needed ACL Reconstructive Surgery after a sport injury and Dr. Desimone performed the surgery. His team goes above and beyond to make sure that you understand all the steps and they were extremely professional. They leave you their cell numbers in case you need help after hours! I would recommend this team to anyone hands down!!
