What Patients Are Saying

5.0

Dr. David Fermelia is absolutely outstanding. A truly wonderful physician. Listened well, communicated clearly the options, and showed great bedside manner and concern. I left the appointment, feeling very confident, well informed, and having Dr. Fermelia perform the surgery should I need it.

Doctor talked at me more than listened, told me again and again that what I was saying was happening was not possible, could not be two things he thinks it could be but couldn't tell me what it was or even offer another explanation. Told me that their are no nerve endings there when I suggested that maybe it was on a nerve bc my pain is real. When examining he lost it and I was trying to find again and did after he sat down and he basically would not look at it again and explained to me it could get lost if he went to get it. Overall was a VERY bad experience. I have read about doctors that were condescending and didn't listen in the past but never experienced It first hand until this point.

Excellent communicator! Our discussion was thorough, describing options to proceed and to wait a time w patience! No histrionics to suggest a surgery was imminently necessary.

The Doctor explained everything to me and why he was recommending no surgery. And that he needed more data before he would consider surgery. He listened to my concerns and addressed them
