Both [redacted] and Dr Lamuraglia were excellent. They explained things clearly, let me know about my progress, went over test results, and laid out the path of where to go from here.

I've been coming to Mass General since 2005 and I have experienced the best care that I could ever have received. Dr. Lamuraglia is someone that I would recommend to anyone. He always listens to what I have to say and his top priority are his patients. His staff are very respectful and will answer any questions I might have. They get a 10 from me.
Dr Lamuraglia was very thorough, asked a lot of questions to really get a good picture of my history, family history etc and explained possible scenarios for my issue and ordered additional tests to confirm what the issue is. He was very respectful and I felt I was in good hands.
