Dr. Ugo is very patient and kind to his patients and their family members. My husband was really nervous about his situation and on top of that it was our first visit to Dr. Ugo's office. To make a long story short after talking to Dr. Ugo he reassured us that everything was looking good and he took the time out to actually sit, talk, and listen to my husbands concerns.
