Sep 07, 2022
I saw Dr. Arena for the first time today. He took his time with me and answered all of my questions and explained procedures and diagnoses I wasn't sure about. After suffering with circulatory problems for quite some time, I now feel like I'm at the right place and in good hands with Dr. Arena.
