He was so wonderful and caring. I could barely walk before I had my hips replaced and I had a limp. Now I feel great. It has been two years since my surgery and everything is still wonderful. I would highly recommend Dr. Prato for any orthopedic care. He is awesome!

I thought Dr. Zlotnicki was very patient and concerned about my reason for being there. He explained what he thought my problem was and mapped out a treatment plan.
