Our family has been treated by Dr. Cavallaro for the past five years. We have never had a problem with him.he is compassionate, professional, and personable, all the qualities that a patient needs when they are sick and do not quite comprehend their sickness. The patience he has for his elderly patients is unbelievable, he has been treating my mother-in-law for the past five years for dementia and has been very helpful in helping me deal with all the stress that goes along with the stress of being the main caretaker. I have called him many times crying and he has had the ability to calm both my fears and stress. Until now, most of the staff has always been somewhat disrespectful, especially the office manager, Donna, she has tried to intimidate me from the beginning, making me feel as if I had done something to offend her, fortunately Dr Cavallaro has opened his own practice and we might have to travel a distance to see him, I believe it is well worth the travel time for my sanity. If we have to pay a full copay to a ""physicians assistant"" I feel somehow the patient is getting ripped off. I also have a very big problem when someone is accused of something, when they are not guilty of anything, other than using a prescription written by someone other than the doctor. I worked for the government for 20 years, 20 and out, and we were taught that a person is innocent until proven guilty. I think in the future you should not jump to conclusions when you are not aware of the facts. ...read more

My mother and I were patients at this practice for a long time until we found out that one of the doctor's were prescribing her double the dose of her pain medication for her bad back for over a year. She now has developed a permanent stomach condition do to this error. Unfortunately, this is nothing compared to the eway that she was treated by the receptionists when she went in the office scared and in severe pain. They rudely disreguarded her and even laughed amoungst eachother at how she was acting because she was nervous and in pain. My mother is 65 years old, I hope that no one else has to have a loved one ever experience anything like this. Jessica was the name of the woman that she spoke to directly and she should be ashamed of herself along with the rest of the staff at Point Plaza medical practice! I was required to give at least one star to complete my review, but if it was my choice I owuld give them 0 stars. Thank You ...read more
