How likely are you to recommend Dr. Christo?
Dr. Christo is a good doctor however, the communication at Fitchburg Family Practice is very poor. I've been her patient for many years and I keep thinking the staff will get their act together, but they continue to make mistakes with prescriptions such as not calling them in, no follow up calls, and when she's out of the office, there isn't anyone to call a prescription in. I never get a warm feeling from her staff. It's to the point I can't rely on them to follow through with anything.
