Dr. Ostrowski is a very caring physician. He is always well informed about health care history.
My 1st visit with this Dr. He was very nice, explained all, reviewed necessary things, listened to me, & answered all my questions.
He is personable and interested in me as a patient and as a human.
I was very happy with the provider. He did a very good job and I'd like to follow up with him in the future. Thank you.
Dr Ostrowski a his staff are always pleasant and professional.
This young , soft spoken, well groomed doctor was extremely kind and reassuring . He was intelligent and thorough with his examination . He went above and beyond by removing unsightly spots from my face after he addressed a worrisome spot on my hairline. I have already recommended him to 2 of my friends !
My first visit eight years ago, I left the office with no decisions on what to do. Once I met my recent doctor, I left very enthused and excited about my options. He listened to me, understood my thoughts and went above what I was expecting. I can't wait to work with him in the months ahead.
Dr. Ostrowski is extremely knowledgeable, attentive and caring. he explains things clearly and provides helpful recommendations. Thank you for providing such excellent care!
