They all were polite and knew what they were doing and answering any questions I ask or my wife did. We both left there very satisfied.

My first appointment with Dr. Diperna. He was great. He listened and understood my concerns about my health. I was very happy with the outcome. Tammy, the nurse, is always a delight. She efficiently does her job while socially chatting. I enjoyed my visit.

My annual appt was shifted only because of short staff demands. Early notification and I had no health challengers. These folks have been great, open to questions, reviewed blood test scores then checked again after learning I had broken an arm with resulting surgery. Excellent help.

Everyone in Dr DiPerna's office is informed, friendly and helpful. Dr DiPerna is wonderful with answering my questions and explaining how to best maintain my health - in language I can understand! He also engages me in considering next steps. As an aside, the Patient Portal is an easy way for us to communicate, and I have always received timely responses to questions or to information I provide through it.

Our Kidney Doctor is a really friendly and understanding doctor. He is very caring with my mom and offers support however needed. I do however wish thw hospital would do something about the parking situation ha ingredients to make lap after lap around trying to find a spot is very difficult and time consuming.

I was so pleased with the care that I received from Dr. DiPerna during my stay and my outpatient visit after my stay at the hospital. And I'm just very appreciative of the great care that I have received from Maine General Medical Center.

The doctor and his staff are a wonderful group of people. Very professional and knowledgeable while being understanding and kind. Let's face it, no one likes to go to a doctor, it can be stressful. But these guys try to make it a much more positive experience. And I am thankful for that. Thank you very much
