 "I would like to thank Dr. John Valentini at Family Emergency Room of Georgetown for taking exceptional care of me yesterday when I needed an unexpected trip to the ER. Dr. Valentini is the first doctor in two years to diagnose my condition and give me a plan of action to get on the other side of it. It has been a hard and long and expensive road... and because of Dr. Valentini, I finally have answers! I am so grateful to him and to the amazing nurses that made me feel so cared about! We are so blessed to have this amazing doctor and this amazing resource right here in Georgetown! If you need medical care from doctors and nurses that care AND really know what they're doing, go to Family Emergency Room in Georgetown. You'll be so grateful that you did."

 "Not only were they extremely friendly and professional they made my son who’s on the spectrum feel comfortable. We had such a pleasant experience and we are grateful to Dr. Ryan Prudoff and Alma, and the whole staff. We didn’t have insurance and they helped us and worked with us. We definitely recommend them in an emergency."
