Last summer, while on vacation 600 miles from home, I fell playing tennis and badly bruised my left elbow. At my wife's suggestion I took photos of the swelling and texted them to Dr Suchecki.

Testimonials from patients of Dr. Suchecki
I'm a very-senior citizen whose beloved Doctor Bhat--the reason I joined MDVIP--retired and this very young man took over his practice. I was wary. How could anyone this young treat someone as old as me? I've been pleasantly surprised about and grateful for the depth and breadth of this lovely young man's medical knowledge and caring attention. I look forward to Dr. Suchecki… See more

Dr. S. is an immensely patient and persistent medical professional. He has to be to work with me. In fact, he enjoys it so much, he refers me to other professionals for a wide-range of minor problems. I know he is happy doing this since he doesn't have to listen to my philosophy and complaints.

I met Dr. Suchecki first as my mother's doctor. I saw how well he inner-acted with her and his sensitive and caring attitude. At that time I was looking for a new primary care doctor and felt he would be perfect. Despite best medical efforts, my mom passed and I became Dr. Suchecki's patient. Even before he joined MDVIP, he always had the time to listen to me and explain my… See more
