Earlier this week I had my first and last visit to the practice of Dr. Jason Luciano at his…read moreAspinwall PA Office. I was referred to him by my PCP to have a cyst removed. The procedure seemed to go well and I returned to my office. Once there I noticed that my back felt wet and, as you can see in the photo, the wound was leaking blood. I called Luciano's office and spoke with a nurse who I told I was back at the office and the wound needed attention. He suggested I get gauze and tape and apply it to the wound. I noted that I couldn't do it myself since the wound is on my back. What was I supposed to do? Strip to the waist and ask a colleague to do it? I then told the nurse I was immediately returning to Luciano's office. When I arrived the Physician's Assistant treated the wound and redressed it. I asked to speak with the doctor but was told he wasn't available and I could speak with the Office Manager. My conversation with her was, to put it mildly, highly unpleasant. I won't be returning to this doctor and I've made arrangements to have the sutures removed by my PCP.

I wish I could give her 10 stars! She is an amazing doctor and person! I was so tired of the…read moreregular healthcare model. I wanted one doctor that took care of everything, that actually knew me. The direct care model is exactly that. Low monthly fee, direct access to your doctor via phone, text or email, and next day appointments! One appointment at Medexpress would cost me $250 due to my high deductible. Now I never have to go to an urgent care ever again!

From the owner: Dr. Natalie Gentile (she/her) is board-certified in both Family Medicine and Lifestyle Medicine…read more She is a proud Pittsburgh native from Mt. Lebanon and is grateful to serve the community through the direct primary care model. As an attending physician at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN, she saw that the current primary care model in the US lacks continuity, access, and time with patients. Therefore, when she moved back to Pittsburgh, she opened Gentile Family Direct Primary Care, and is now a co-founder, with Dr. Kirsten Lin, of the Direct Care Physicians of Pittsburgh.

My wife and I have been seeing Dr. Roba for years. She's the best! We moved further from her office…read moreyet still drive the extra distance to see her.

Although Dr. Roba's service to her patients is exceptional, her billing department is well below…read moreacceptable. To start you cannot pay online, and they do not accept credit cards. They are "kind enough" to accept cash or checks. These are VERY antiquated methods of payment. My mother took cash down to her last appointment. She paid what they claimed she owed (with cash) and requested to pay for the appointment she was about to have, she was told she owed nothing. In typical fashion, she got a "FINAL NOTICE" because she did indeed owe for the appointment. It is VERY agitating to be told "your physician provided you service in good faith" and you are late paying them. This could not be further from the truth. Again, she tried to pay and was told she would not owe anything. This is a consistent practice at this office. Then this office makes it extremely difficult to pay! No worries. You will receive a "Final Notice" to let you know how wonderful Dr. Roba is and provided you a service "in good faith" but you need to pay per your "Final Notice". The WORST conducted billing process and department that I've experienced in my 57 years.

The doctors and staff are nice. However, the receptinist (especially over the phone) is just too…read morerude! Whenever I talk to her on the phone, I end up being so upset. It is my third time, and I think it is the same person. I am seriously considering to change my primary physician, only because of her. I mean, whenever I call her to make an appointment or to ask a question, she is the first one that I usually talk to, and she just makes me MAD!!!

Saw Dr. Lally before Christmas and she did a biopsy of a mole. Turned out to be a melanoma. Since…read morewe were in Florida, we sought out a dermatologist to excise the mole. He did a body scan and found another mole just 3 inches from the original mole. This turned out to be another melanoma. Also biopsied a patch behind my ear which was a basal cell carcinoma. Don't know how she could have missed both of these cancers since they were in plain sight...the one right next to the other one. Lost all trust in her. Needless to say, will be looking for another dermatologist upon our return to Pittsburgh. I think she needs to slow down and take more time....always in a hurry.
