Excellent second visit to see Dr. Canto for my pressure wound. He made me feel comfortable. I was nervous and his sense of humor and caring attitude helped me relax. He really is an excellent physician and I thank him for helping me heal.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams. While not all specialties have board certifications, if your provider does have one they’ve taken the extra step to master their specialty and to keep up with the latest advancements in their field.
