  • [redacted] had a great experience with this office. It was very impressive from a spatial point of view. And Dr. Deluca was amazing. He had an x-ray on site for his fever's disease, got the results right away. She was very careful and thorough and thoughtful and talked to him and to mom and gave us some very clear directions and strategies to help with his fever's disease and we are very thrilled and will definitely recommend her.
