"My doctor is Dr. Scovazzo and I just need to tell you what a wonderful doctor I think she is and her medical assistant -- and ALL the people that are in the office that I have contact with --- including the x-ray people and the ladies that do the casts.  A couple years ago I had a kneecap incident on Christmas Eve and on Christmas morning Dr. Scovazzo met us at the office after her spell at the hospital (on CHRISTMAS DAY and she didn't even know us!!!) and started me off on my road to recovery --- since then she has taken care of a little bone in my wrist and now this ankle issue -- everyone is SO NICE and her medical assistant, Jody, is always so good about getting me right in -- I just think you are all so wonderful!!"  -- Nikki
