We identified a specific and potentially serious problem via some blood work. Dr. Balsamo is well versed in this condition and has been working with me to manage it for 16 years. In my opinion, his expertise and council has literally saved my life or at least improved the quality of my life greatly. He tells me what to do and I follow his instructions. I appreciate what he has done for me over the years. I wish he had a few more minutes to spend with me sometimes but notice that time with patients is a challenge for just about any doctor.
