Gynecological Ultrasound / Sonogram

I have known Dr. Acetta for approximately 33 years to date. I have always appreciated his caring demeanor and exemplary management of patient care ....... OB, GYN, and surgical. His retirement although very much deserved will leave so many women thinking about by whom and where they might consider future women's health care. The office staff are personable and accommodating. Nursing staff were attentive and assured my appointment was smoothly orchestrated. The Ultrasonographer was highly professional and sensitive to the needs of a menopausal patient.

The overall experience was pleasant. I got called back in a reasonable amount of time. Dr. Accetta was right in to see me. He has been my Gyno for about 12 years. He's always been very thorough with his questions and they information he provides. He's always made me feel very comfortable during the visit and confident that he has my best health in mind.

I was satisfied with the care provided to me by Doctor Acetta but I honestly hate the lack of communication with with following up with labs and forms I needed filled out for work and for my breast pump.
