Dr. Avella was the first person to care for me on my cancer journey. He was able to do surgery and performed it perfectly. I was able to heal and feel better quickly. He was very informative, caring, polite, and I felt very comfortable being under his care. He is a Dr I will always remember as he thoroughly explained my diagnosis, surgery and post op pathology reports. I highly recommend Dr. Avella and am very thankful for his work.
