Patient Reviews
Apr 17, 2023
I found Dr. Defusco to be outstanding! She was interested in my medical history and spent an unusual amount of time listening to me. I was thoroughly impressed. She gave me some homework which seemed most appropriate. I look forward to seeing her again in two months. I am so happy to have found her.
