I had been under the care of a regular cardiologist and continued to feel sick and have major issues. I happened across Dr. Mazza, and everything began to change for the better. Making my initial appointment, they were patient and kind. They answered all questions on the phone and were easy to reach. The office is beautiful. It is modern, new, and comfortable. Nursing staff is welcoming and treats you like family. Dr. Mazza is a wonderfully patient and kind man, making you feel heard. He wants to know everything about your condition and is detail-oriented. He takes so much time with me to ensure he has all of the information. His treatment has been a game-changer, offering me strategies and advice that I have never received before. On top of that, I am actually getting BETTER! I couldn't recommend this practice and Dr. Mazza enough.

His practice has changed since he moved from 2nd street to HUMC. My appointment was for 1pm at 2pm I fired the practice as more patient's need to do to teach Doctor's that without us they are out of business. Leaving patient's in waiting rooms for over an hour is an unacceptable way to treat your long standing customers (and yes we are customers). The office personnel don't care that you the patient is sitting with other sick people during these covid times for hours as they sit behind glass away from the patient's. In closing the front desk personnel didn't care that I waited for 75 minutes drove an hour to get to my appointment early, they just handed me the form to release my medical information to the next Doctor who maybe will care about my time as much as he will care about my health!

They were from various Doctors & hospitals spanning years. I had never witnessed such concern & determiation from any Doctor before!

My advice: avoid it - bad at follow up, not answering phones during work hours, after hours phones go only to the pediatric division, my Rx refill request months ago was ignored and I had to go to another practice, and to top it off - an administrative matter was not responded to that had to be done before the Dr. (Laureano - Dermatology) went on vacation today. If you can't get Rx refills, administrative things done, and after hours on call help, you are better off establishing a relationship with another practice.
