I have been a patient of Dr. Cardellio since I was a teenager, and I can honestly say that he is one of the most compassionate and dedicated doctors I have ever met. He truly goes above and beyond for his patients, ensuring that every visit feels personal rather than just another appointment on a busy schedule.

Dr. Cardellio is incredibly attentive—he listens carefully to all concerns, takes his time during each visit, and makes you feel like a priority rather than just a number. In a healthcare system where many doctors rush through appointments, his level of care and attention is rare and deeply appreciated.

Not only is Dr. Cardellio exceptional, but his office staff is equally wonderful. The women in his office create a warm, welcoming environment where patients feel heard and valued. From scheduling to follow-ups, everything about the experience is seamless and personal.

If you’re looking for a primary care physician who truly cares, takes the time to address your needs, and fosters a patient-centered experience, I highly recommend Dr. Cardellio. Quality care like his is hard to find!N

I recently went to the Shelby Township location for a checkup with Dr. Cardellio and it was a wonderful experience. Rise and Debbie were both amazing. Everyone made my 3 year old twins very comfortable and they both left happy, they even asked if we could go back the next day !

Doctor Cardellio and staff are the best!! They make the patient the priority, a feeling that isn’t offered at many doctor’s offices anymore. The office is always pleasant and helpful with answering questions or with fulfilling requests. I give the doctor and staff 5 stars for excellence in patient care
