Patient Reviews
- “Dr. DiPreta was clear, right to the point, and showed concern.”– Fredric D.Patient Rating:
- “I have been seeing Dr. DiPreta for years. I had a motor vehicle accident and a chronic issue now. It's just nice to have a provider who's consistent and willing to listen and explain things.”– Sindu B.Patient Rating:
- “Dr. DiPreta is the only ankle orthopedic I will trust to take care of my ankle (after having a bad experience in FLA). He takes the time to listen, talks about your options but doesn't push one over the other to make more money. Hopefully, he will still practice when it's time for my replacement.”– Sara B.Patient Rating:
