Dr. Fruscione is a professional but has the bedside manners of a saint. He's just a wonderful human being, very kind, and I respect him greatly. He has truly done miracles for me and I'm sure for others. Thank you very much.
After receiving all the information, requirements, and instructions, I can conclude that the professional who assisted me fully and satisfactorily fulfilled the mandate and mission of providing excellent service as a true professional in his field.
I came to be evaluated to be a possible kidney transplant recipient. Everyone was nice and informative and professional. The only downfall was the long wait times between appointments. Hadn't eaten all day. By the time we were done the cafe was closed. Otherwise, I'm looking forward to a wonderful relationship with the transplant team!
Hi, Dr. Fruscione was absolutely wonderful. His surgery was wonderful, his explanations. I couldn't ask for any better doctor. I would totally recommend Hackensack any time of the day. And also, all the nurses that I had in the transplant unit were one more wonderful than the other, and all the girls that I'm dealing with with my appointments. Couldn't be better, absolutely could not be better. I can give everybody 10 plus plus plus. And thank you so much.
The staff was amazing. Very helpful & knowledgable.
