What Our Patients Say About Dr. Shargani ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“This doctor was amazing. We sat and just talked about what was going on. He weighed in where appropriate until we came to a mutually agreeable plan of action. Before I knew it 90 minutes had gone by. First appointment, by the way, and he deserves 11/5 stars. For real.”
“When no one else was able to diagnose what was wrong with me it was Dr. Shargani who did. He explained everything and what had to be done. He is such an intelligent and caring man, always has time for you, never rushes and answers all your questions. I can’t say enough nice things about him and know he’s always there if I need him. I highly recommend Dr. Shargani. We need more like him.“
“Dr. Shargani been a godsend to me. I’m having medical issues that are a mystery – and I was told to go to a Rheumatologist – researched online – and he got fantastic ratings. He examined me and is working side-by-side to figure out what this autoimmune mystery is. He is such a kind doctor – it’s like chatting with a good friend – he was the first doctor I went to who didn’t make me feel like I would pass out from panic. Outstanding, Smart, Amazing doctor with the best bedside manner. He won’t give up until he finds the problem. Highly Recommend!!”
What Our Patients Say About Dr. Imperato⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“Dr. Imperato is exceptionally knowledgeable and scientifically sharp, but what truly sets her apart is how clearly she explains information in a way patients can understand. She is thorough, thoughtful, and genuinely cares — she has checked in on me multiple times (even on weekends) when she didn’t have to.
She takes a proactive, long-term approach to care and is always thinking several steps ahead. Repeatedly provided options with me between appointments and helped guide decisions beyond just the office visit. Her office is also well run. Treatments I required needed significant coordination with insurance, and her staff is persistent, organized, and communicative throughout the process. She is also very well connected across the medical community and has helped me quickly access other specialists when needed. She stays current on the latest studies and treatments and coordinates directly with my other doctors to ensure seamless care.
If you’re dealing with anything complex, you will feel confident you’re in the right hands.”
“My wife recently had the pleasure of receiving care from Dr. Imperato and I cannot speak highly enough about the wonderful experience. From the moment we walked into the office, we were greeted with warmth and professionalism.
During the consultation, Dr. Imperato took the time to thoroughly listen to my wife, her concerns and also to address any questions we had. Their ability to communicate complex medical information in a way that was easy to understand was truly impressive. We felt valued and respected as a patient, and Dr. Imperatos genuine interest in my significant others well-being was evident throughout our interaction.
Not only did Dr. Imperato provide excellent medical care, but her expertise and attention to detail instilled a sense of confidence in me. I felt that my wife was in the hands of a highly skilled and knowledgeable professional who was dedicated to finding the best possible treatment plan for her.
Overall, our experience with Dr. Imperato was exceptional, and I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a caring, knowledgeable, and attentive Rheumatologist. Thank you, Dr. Imperato, for your outstanding care and commitment to patient well-being“
