She is excellent at what she does unfortunately I have to see her twice for tumor removal but wouldn't want anybody else. She is an incredible outstanding doctor. I am so glad that Dr. [ ] referred me to her. She knew I would be in good hands. Dr. Taglia is also an outstanding doctor and dermatologist. She takes so much time to explain what Dr.Pipitone will be doing at her procedures.

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.
