He is seeing my mommy in the hospital at Mon Health and he has gone above and beyond any doctor that I have known. Very caring doctor and he takes the time to talk to the family and answer any questions you have.

Review for Dr. Cimaglia

Dr. Cook only spent 5 minutes of the 30 minute appointment with us, then stood up and left. He was very abrupt and not interested in answering questions.
