    This was a follow up to concern I had. I felt like there were times in the past that I didn't communicate well with Dr Valentino nor him with me. He very graciously called me to clarify a lot of that and then had his nurse schedule today's appointment. I so appreciated his doing so and making me feel heard! I appreciated the care he showed in resolving our issues.

      Dr. Valentino is thorough. He really listens to what I have to say, answers in a way that I can understand, and is always quick to address any problem I might have. He has wonderful bedside manner and puts people at ease.

      Dr. Valentino is an excellent provider. He came in to see me for convenience on his non office day. He listens, chats and treats me like his only patient even when he is very busy. He has extended my life with my cancer.
