Patient Reviews
Mar 30, 2021
Dr. Lorenzo made me feel comfortable. She took her time with explanations without a lot of medical jargon. She is caring and helpful. I am also very impressed with her foundation that hosts the Rump Run every year. The money raised from this project pays for colonoscopies for those who do not have insurance or the ability to pay.
