5.0 star star star star starShe’s excellent and really thoughtful. Never feel liked she’s rushed to get to the next patient, which is antithetical to how NM operates these days. Need more doctors like Dr Aleppo, who are concerned about the quality of their patient contact vs the quantity. I would love to think you actually care about these surveys…hope springs eternal.

5.0 star star star star starI think that Dr. Aleppo, among almost all the other doctors that I have had experience with at NorthWestern, exemplifies the highest standards achievable in medical care. I have to admit that I have had a few minor disappointments in my history there, but Dr. Aleppo has always been held in my highest regards. Thank you so much for all of the service you provide, not only to me, but to the greater community at large.
