Michael Petruso

A 2pm appointment turns into a face to face at 5:30 pm. A 1^st in the morning 8 am is at 11:30 am. Really! He did not know that i had gout in my foot and said I broke it. He prescribed meds that I was allergic to. It was combined with another med. he rants on about insurance providers ripping off the docs and the government for 30 minutes. I do not see a doc for any of this. Avoid if you do not want to be abused.

Look, Dr. Petruso does have long waits. It’s a problem that, if you are a patient of his, you put up with, but he is very good. He takes his time to get to know you, he listens to you and is very pleasant. He is very good at what he does and that is why the waits are so long. You should have given him a chance.

I am looking for a new physician, so I picked up a copy of Las Vegas magazines guide to the top physicians in Vegas. Dr. Petruso was listed as the «nurses choice» for best doctors in the city. Wow, nurses are the nice ones in the world, not the doctors so this guy has to be great. Well, I never found out. When I made my appointment at 2:30 (l appointment of the day) which was available the following week — I was told that I should know that the doctor runs an hour to an hour and a half late every day, though I would be required to show up at 2:30 and wait or my appointment would not be honored. Ok, so I decided to seek an earlier appointment — since hey why not go earlier if the doc always runs late — well you know how smart doctors are, first appointment for new patients doesn’t start until 10:30.
Well, I never got to see Dr. Petruso and as for the nurses, hey I do not know what they were thinking.
