Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Nigro?
Had a first meeting with dr. Nigro today and after the visit I have never felt like such a waste of my time. He totally dismissed my ailments and chalked everything up to "arthritis". I went in with multiple issues (knees and hand injury). He chalked all up to arthritis without even ordering an MRI until I insisted that there is something wrong beyond arthritis. I have had several other surgeries and have been told by reputable other doctors that theres alot that doesn't show up on X-rays.alone
