Patient Reviews
Mar 16, 2026
I highly recommend Dr Richard Puzzitiello and Coastal Orthopedics. He took the time to pursue conservative treatments first, and only recommended surgery when every other option had been exhausted. The repair was excellent, and both he and his staff were professional, skilled, and compassionate throughout the process.
