Review for Dr. Boscoe
He is wonderful! He explained everything in detail and was caring and quick to respond when there were scheduling and other minor changes in the process. I would give him more than 5’s if I could!

I saw Dr. Boscoe for a consultation about possible surgery. She was on time, very knowledgeable, happy to answer all of my questions (and I had a lot), and gave me fair, honest answers. The rest of her staff was also absolutely lovely.
