Patient Reviews

Dorothy H.★★★★★

After two misdiagnoses elsewhere, Dr. Lopez identified my husband's vascular dementia precisely and gave us an actual road map forward.

Michael T.★★★★★

His knowledge is staggering, and yet he speaks to patients and families in plain language. UPMC should be proud to have him.
