I was just speaking with one of my clients this morning and she was telling me how happy she was with the care her father received when he was in Dr. Pianko's care. She said she always knew how competent he was; but the thing that stood out was how well Dr. Pianko treated her father and how her father felt after meeting with Dr. Pianko. This is important for any daughter (and especially one helping from out of town).

This is why I drive to Aventura - best doctor imaginable...When my son didn’t have health insurance he gave him an echo cardiogram and a full cardiac work up and asked me if it was okay if he charged $275. If you’re as old as me —- you will understand why I compare him to Marcus Welby. He gives me every RX I need, even ones that I used to see specialists for - saves me money but especially time. The man is a SAINT.

Dr. Pianko is the best doctor I have ever had. He is attentive, caring and medically skilled. I trust his opinion. He is away for the weekend but that does not stop him from returning a phone call or getting back to you. I have been an RN for over 30 years and I am very selective. If you want a wonderful physician who genuinely cares about your well being, Dr. Pianko is it. You can’t do any better.
