Knowledgeable, experienced, determined, relatable

Only good things to say about Dr Varlotta. I will continue seeing him for my issues; he attacks your pain as if it were his own. Ruth at the front desk is also a major help to me and is alway professional and soft spoken. The referrals he’s provided are also first-rate.
