Patient Reviews
Feb 08, 2024
Dr.DiPalma was my three children doctor. She cared for my children ages: 7, 5,and 3. She remand their doctor until they reached 18. She is an excellent doctor who cared for her patients. She answered all your questions and she respected her patients. When they were sick, she found answers to help them. I recommend her to everyone.
