If I could give Dr. Salvino a score of 100, I would. He was incredibly friendly, and took the time every single visit to make sure we had all of our questions and concerns addressed. He gave us so much information that my daughter and I both felt comfortable with her decisions regarding her surgeries. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone.

External Professional Relationships

Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care.
