    Dr Martello was very kind. He explained everything and answered all of my questions.

  • Jun 8, 2026

    I was led to believe by another neurologist that I had a mini stroke. I questioned that diagnosis from the first. My visit with Dr Martello confirmed my suspicions. He thinks there is more going on and from his questions I feel that he is going to get the answers for me. He has ordered testing. I feel that I have found the doctor to give me the right diagnosis.
