How likely are you to recommend Dr. Distefano?
Dr. Distefano performed back surgery on me 2 years ago and the results were excellent. I notice most of those who left bad reviews here had their feelings hurt from his abruptness in the office. I heard he is 'all business' thru the grapevine and that's just what you should be looking for if you need surgery. If you're looking for a 'happy visit' go see a comedian or psychologist. Dr. Distefano is an AWESOME surgeon.
