Hardly know where to begin. In our first appointment, I was shown vivid images of a lung nodule and given a very careful description of my options. This attention to detail, concern for my feelings were evident throughout. Most importantly, he called me and my wife on at least 3 separate occasions to provide information and reassurance. His empathy was extraordinary and appreciated. And the outcome! Better than I dreamed. A day after surgery I'm walking my dog!

Dr. Avella impressed me with his clear explanations and insights. I especially appreciate a call he made to my home to address my questions (and anxieties) about surgery. It was an outstanding gesture and speaks well of him.
