I have a complex medical history of autoimmune diseases and I am<br />

developing new symptoms and probably a new disorder. Most doctors<br />

have treated me with dismissiveness or disrespect because they didn’t<br />

want to take the time to deal with the complexity or diagnosis the new<br />

symptoms. Dr. Degrio, however, listened to me carefully and let me know<br />

that he appreciates a challenge and will help me figure this out to the best<br />

of his ability.<br />

He spent a lot of time with me and carefully went through all my<br />

symptoms and developed a plan of action to help me, which I appreciate<br />

more than words can say after being dismissed so many times. He also<br />

assured me that the pain and symptoms I’m experiencing are legitimate,<br />

which goes a long way to a patient who has been disregarded as many<br />

times as I have. I will definitely recommend this doctor and clinic to<br />

everyone.<br />

After my appointment with Dr. Degrio, I feel like I<br />

actually have hope of getting better after dealing<br />

with these symptoms for almost 3 years.<br />
