“knowledgeable specialist”
I came to the doctor for a consult regarding my thyroid problems. The doctor was very helpful, listened to me, responded to all my questions and immediately sent me for a blood test and a sonogram. both were done in the office during my visit. now have to wait for the results. hope for the good ones.

“Very good doctor”
Dr. Starosta really took the time to listen patients and explain everything quite well, and did not rush to prescribe unnecessary medication.Someone I can trust to be my regular endocrinologist. Friendly office staff.
