Family Medicine practitioners - Pomona, NY

"Love Dr. Cricchio's demeanor- He's calm, cool, collective, supportive, personable, etc. "Soft-spoken" (for lack of a better term?) which is completely comforting because let's face it, NO one LIKES going to the Doctor. :) Get's to know you not ONLY on a "medical" level but also personal. Worth noting, though had talks with me about why it was so harmful and offered to support if and when I wanted to quit of course, NEVER was condescending about the fact that I smoked cigarettes- I KNEW it was bad for me and didn't need to be TOLD EVERY time I went to the Doctor (like a LOT of Doctors would DO obnoxiously) about how bad it was. Dr's Cricchio's stance was always "You know it's bad, I don't have to tell you, if you DO quit it of course would HELP and let me know How IIIIIII can help but let's take one thing at a time", which I REALLY appreciated after being basically BELITTLED because I smoked from almost EVERY OTHER DOCTOR I'd seen. Dr. C. helped me BIGtime with my High Blood Pressure and Diabetic issues. Always celebrated small wins! Office staff is pleasing. Cozy family practice, would definitely recommend!!! Unfort, I believe Dr. Cricchio retire and will need to find a new Dr. :( I feel it may be a challenge to as much as I like HIM."
