Dr. Scarpato is the first doctor I've had that treated me with obvious respect and compassion. She listened carefully when I described my concerns and goals, responded with engaged and thoughtful questions, and acted decisively and proactively when referrals were needed. I appreciate that she took the time to explain to me how the MyNM app works and that I could reach out to her with changes to my health or updates on the progress through the app. We came up with a plan to start my healing process for my back injury the very first day and she explained the steps clearly and concisely. Her care helps me care and that is the best thing a doctor can do.

I’ve been a patient of Dr [ ]’s for 20 years. It was tough to agree to seeing another doctor in the practice in order to be seen sooner than the only appointment I could manage with Dr [ ] still 10+ days away. Dr Scarpato was great! She was attentive, personable, patient, thorough and knowledgeable. At 72, I’ve seen it all when it comes to white coats juggling a compassionate bedside manner with a medical degree. She has earned my trust.

The doctor really seemed to know what she was doing and was compassionate to my complex situation. It would be nice if there were an easier way to contact the doctor directly with a message or a question in real-time, but I'm sure doctors are busy. The mynm message thing with callbacks is OK, but something text-based and asynchronous would be ideal. Like... email or skype, if I have a 30-second question about something.
