Dr. Pipitone is a wonderful physician because he takes the time to really listen to my concerns and then offer productive suggestions. I always feel included in the ongoing care process. Plus he is very down-to-earth and relaxed which puts me at ease so I know I can take the time to sort out what I want to say and be honest about what is going on with me. I am so happy that I have Dr. Pipitone as my primary care doctor. He has guided me through many health challenges, and I feel that I am as healthy as I am today because of his thorough appraisal of my situation and his attention to detail. Even more important is his ability to see beyond my medical chart and take into consideration my individual healthy lifestyle.

I have been a patient of Dr. Pipitone for about 20 years. He has seen me through annual visits, sick visits, hospital visits, as well as covid. He is always well prepared and knowledgeable about all the ailments I present him with (no matter how obscure they are). He always treats me with kindness and respect. I sometimes feel that I am taking too much of his time, but that is on me. He always makes me feel like I am his only patient.
