Dr. Aleppo is truly remarkable. She understands my medical condition and the quirks I sometimes experience better than anyone should expect. She has concrete and excellent counsel. She has wonderful interpersonal skills, which underscore the excellent relationship that I feel we have. As someone who has had Type 1 Diabetes for more than 70 years, I cannot imagine a better or more trusted physician than Dr. Aleppo.

Dr Aleppo is amazing. She has a wonderful, compassionate attitude. She asked me several times if there was anything else I needed or if I had any questions about anything. Even after having diabetes for over 35 years, she was able to teach me something new about my insulin pump technology. I am very thankful for my endocrinologist in Denver, Colorado who recommended her to me.
