Very satisfied. Highly recommend him. He was very thorough.
6/8/2026
I like Dr. Aria. He is polite and attentive to my needs and seems very competent. I trust him. However, he generally seems to be busy and ready to move on and fails to slow down to the extent that I feel like I have his full attention and that he is connecting with me emotionally.

I really appreciated the personal call I got from him telling me that the tissue sample they had sent to the lab was clean. So nice to actually hear personally from the doctor
