I am beyond grateful for the outstanding care and dedication provided by Dr. Monaco and his wonderful assistant, Karen. Their exceptional teamwork and unwavering commitment truly made a significant difference during a critical time for my family. From the moment we contacted the clinic, Karen's kindness and efficiency shone through. Despite the urgency of our situation, she managed to schedule a last-minute appointment with Dr. Monaco, showcasing her incredible organizational skills and genuine concern for patients' well-being. Dr. Monaco's expertise and compassion during my mum's heart echo were truly remarkable. His ability to explain complex medical matters in an understandable manner was greatly appreciated, putting our minds at ease. His attention to detail and thoroughness in conducting the heart echo instilled confidence in us about his competence. What truly sets this team apart is their dedication to ensuring the best possible outcome for their patients. With an upcoming operation the next morning, Dr. Monaco and Karen went above and beyond to prepare a comprehensive report in record time. Their relentless efforts and late-night work exhibited their unwavering commitment to patient care. Thanks to their combined efforts, my mum's operation proceeded smoothly, and we felt reassured knowing that she was in capable hands. This experience highlighted not only their professionalism and expertise but also their genuine care for the well-being of their patients. In a world where exceptional medical care and genuine compassion can sometimes be hard to find, Dr. Monaco and Karen have proven themselves to be shining examples of what healthcare professionals should aspire to be. Their dedication, expertise, and empathy have left an indelible mark on our family, and we are immensely grateful. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Monaco and Karen to anyone in need of top-notch medical care. Their exceptional teamwork, timely efforts, and heartfelt approach make them a true asset to the medical community. Thank you, Dr. Monaco and Karen, for making a significant positive impact on our lives!

My appointment took place ‘on time’ and Dr. Lo Monaco is very professional. His manner is calm and relaxed. He put me at ease and explained the procedure clearly. I received my report the next day which was very important as my anaesthetist wanted to ensure it was safe for me to have a ‘hip replacement’ operation planned for the following week.
