Dr. M. Disano, MD I took my grandson to Dr. Disano for a console. My grandson is autistic we talk and talk about my grandson. I left his office with more information about just my grandson's health problem he gave my a lot of good information that will help my baby. God bless Doc! Just love him

Excellent service and wonderful personality

He did an amazing job explaining things and coming up with a plan on what we do next. It felt reassuring to have some answers and someone who took the time to explain everything.


Oct 22, 2024

Dr. DiSano was thorough in his explanations. He showed us imaging and explained things that were never shared with us in the past. He was patient with us and our son and took time to answer all of our questions.

(Patient) seen (staff names)..and Dr Disano...They all had a good insight on (Patient)..treated us very well.


Jul 1, 2024

Dr. Disano struggles to explain medical terminology for a teenager to understand and can be condescending when you or your child ask questions. He can be direct and emotionless when discussing my daughter's prognosis and next steps. He could express more empathy when talking to his patients and parents.


Jul 1, 2024

We have complete confidence in the care we receive for our son with Dr. Disano .


Jun 10, 2024

Dr Disano is fabulous. Very knowledgeable, takes his time. Wants to make sure you understand everything and how to manage your disease and medication. He is one of a kind, top notch.
