Dr. Teresa Pianta was extremely helpful. She explained all my concerns in detail and very clearly. She has a great sense of (appropriate) humor. I have a hearing problem and brought my daughter with me to make sure I didn't miss anything. Dr. Teresa Pianta went out of her way to make sure that both I and my daughter understood everything. I found her very likeable.

This was my first time meeting this provider. I liked her a lot and feel confident in my care which is good because I will be seeing her for surgery, pre- and post-op care. I would be reluctant to move forward with treatment if I didn't have such a positive first experience.

My provider, Teresa Pianta, was actually one of the best providers I've ever seen in my life. 35 years old. I'm used to doctors just sitting there on a laptop, typing and not saying anything. She was so in-depth, probably spent at least 10 minutes with me just looking at my x-rays and zooming in and at different dimensions, explaining everything. She was even drawing my injury on post-it pads and explaining in depth exactly what was going on, what happened to me, and how I was going to heal. Very one-on-one, personable, and I felt comfortable the whole time. I'd highly recommend her.

Dr. Pianta explained to me very carefully what was wrong with the surgery that the prior surgeon had done on my wrist and the problems that I might have if I did not have the hardware removed and the problems that I was having now might continue or get worse. So I felt very confident that Dr. Pianta was being honest with me and not trying to softpedal the fact that the doctor who did the surgery on my wrist had made a mistake. So he had put the pins in the wrong bone. That doctor has since been suspended and I'm grateful for Dr. Pianta to try to fix the mistake that he made.
