Oct 05, 2023 Report
I had a phone consultation with Mr.Ruberti and I was very pleased. He was very thorough, and pleasant to talk to. He made me feel comfortable and answered all my questions. I highly recommend this practice even if you are not in the immediate area. I'm in Onslow county and they take clients from this area too.
