"Dr.Denno is fantastic. I hate going to the Doctor, but Dr. Denno is by far the best doctor I have had in my life. He is very kind and caring and not at all smug or pretentious like other Doctors I have had. He always listens and is honest with you the whole time."

WebMD user review of Dr. Matthew Denno

"Doctors are fine. Nurses are fine. Office staff is absolutely the worst I've ever experienced. No one answers phones. When you leave a callback number to avoid staying on hold for 30+ minutes... they never call you back."

LocalityBiz user review of New Paltz Family Health Center

"I had an absolutely terrible experience with Optum in New Paltz, the doctors are fine but everything has gone downhill since Optum took over. It’s nearly impossible to reach the office without being transferred between lots of Optum intermediaries, and mistakes are frequently made."
