Patient Reviews
I was dealing with severe shoulder pain for about eight months. I came in to see Dr. Vizzi and he gave me an injection in my shoulder and I went to physical therapy at his office four times. About one week after the injection, I felt completely better and back to lifting weights/playing volleyball. The office is very clean and efficient. Dr. Vizzi took the time to explain my condition and really cares about his outcomes. Highly recommend this doctor and his office. 10/10
My fiancée has been dealing with chronic pain for close to five years now. Dr. Scott Vizzi took the time to listen to his problems and suggest a couple treatments that would help him move past the pain that has been impacting him for the past five years. He truly cares for his patients!
Don't let shoulder pain hold you back from the activities you love.
