"Perhaps the most significant reason, one which has only grown over the years, is the impact I am able to make in improving the quality of someone’s life. I am most fulfilled when I see the smiling face of a patient who no longer needs to wear an absorbent pad or worry about wetness or odors."

"Dr. Lucente is very knowledgeable, courteous, and understanding. He looked at my overall picture and really improve my quality of life, something I am so grateful for.

I would refer him to anybody."
