Dear Dr. Graziano,

Mr. Ladzinski and I would like to thank you once again for the presentation that you gave to our Biology II students. As usual, you gave them an opportunity to see the different types of situations that physicians and surgeons deal with on a daily basis.

Your generosity with your time is so appreciated. You continue to take interest in our students and in our graduates as well. The advice that you offer them is so important. Your explanation of how to start a practice certainly gave them an opportunity to realize the work and dedication involved in order to be successful.

Your professionalism is so important for them to see. Over the last six years, we have seen how much of an influence you have had on our students who are seriously considering medicine. It is wonderful that you continue to mentor them and that you continue to offer them opportunities to watch you work. Thank you again.

Yours truly,

Arlene M. Compoli
Guidance Counselor

Dear Dr. Graziano,

Mr. Ladzinski and I would like to once again thank you for your presentation and for your time. You have become an important component to our advanced biology curriculum. Speaking with our interested pre medical students, detailing what you do each day and offering career and college advice is so important for our students. For them to see a successful professional who has worked hard to achieve success and continues to work hard to maintain professional integrity is invaluable. Each year you stress the need for a strong work ethic, commitment and self discipline. They cannot hear that enough. On Friday you conveyed the message that without sincerity and altruism nothing will ever work out. That message all of us needed to hear.

Again you offered our students the opportunity to observe you in the operating room. This is an extraordinary experience for them. No one has ever offered anything like that to our students. Last year you inspired one of our graduates, and I see the same situation happening again this year.

You are a very special man. Your commitment to facilitating the needs of young adults is truly remarkable. Thank you again.

Yours truly,

Arlene M. Compoli

Dear Dr. Graziano,

I would just like to thank you for your generosity. Coming to your office was an amazing experience! You are an amazing doctor and the people at your practice are unbelievably nice! I seriously loved every minute of it! And now because of this experience, becoming a doctor remains a possibility! Hopefully I'll be able to visit again soon WITHOUT the camera and with a full stomach! If you have any interesting surgeries or simply even fun "doctor stuff" that would possibly interest me please contact me. I would love it! Thank you so much again! You haven't any idea how much I appreciate it!

Sincerely,

Dear Dr. Graziano,

May I thank you for your assistance on Saturday, April 18 at our diabetes eye and foot screening. Our screening was successful, not only due to the number of participants; but people who normally would not have received medical care did receive such. Your generosity is greatly appreciated and again, thank you.

Sincerely,

Anna Marie Leveto
Community Health Services & Parent Education Coordinator

Dear Dr. Graziano:

On behalf of the Clifton Health Department, I would like to thank you for volunteering your time at our Podiatry Screening on Tuesday, November 30, 1999. Thank you also for volunteering to speak in the evening. Your service to the community is greatly appreciated by both Clifton residents and the Health Department. Unfortunately only two residents came out for the evening program, so I cancelled it. Perhaps we could try again during the warmer months.

The Health Department will be conducting follow-up calls to see if those patients who were given referrals have made appointments with a healthcare provider. I look forward to working with you and your staff in the future. Thank you again for your commitment and generous service to the Clifton community.

Sincerely,

Jennifer P. Morgan, MA, CHES Health Educator

Dear Dr. Graziano,

Just a note to say thank you for your wonderful care and kindness you gave my husband Bart on his recent foot surgery. We also were impressed with your remarkable skills, and personal concern you and your entire staff displayed. We also are grateful for your skills in helping heal our daughter Lisa, when she had her surgery. God blessed you and your works. We hope you will find fulfillment knowing you help so many people and, we hope you will continue to improve and help others with your skills and goodness. God bless and keep you.

Sincerely,

Elsa Giaconia & Family

Dear Doctor Graziano,

I wanted to thank you on behalf of my wife, Mary Maurici, for resolving the outstanding bill for services performed on her 6/4/98 in which you assisted Dr. L. Sheridan. In this day and age it is refreshing to know there are still doctors who are understanding and compassionate in their dealings with their patients.

I also wanted you to know that Carol from your office was very helpful, polite, and courteous. I wish you and your staff a Merry Christmas and Healthy New Year. Sincerely,

Rich & Mary Maurici

Dear Dr. Graziano,

I simply could not allow any more time to pass without expressing my deepest appreciation to you for your kindness and generosity toward my daughter, Hannah. Her foot care is especially important to her overall health and well being.

You truly possess an exceptional quality among contemporary doctors, last seen many years ago; one of humbleness, sincerity and a true concern for their patients. You have a unique and refreshingly natural ability of combining professionalism and informality! Your willingness to meet us at your office on such short notice, on your day off no less, was appreciated in so many ways. You have my deepest respect and heartfelt gratitude.

Thank you again.

With deepest regards,

Ellen Anolik, Clifton, NJ
