    Both my husband and I love Dr. DeBella. He was always very kind and thoughtful. He noticed there was a gap in his schedule that day and asked if my husband wanted to change his appointment from next month to that that day that he could see us both at the same time. That was so thoughtful and kind because we live in Dacula and that saved us some gas money and some time. My husband is having a lot of health issues right now so this was really meaningful to him to not have to go up there again next month. Also. His assistant was wonderful too. Very sweet girl and very caring. Dr. Debella's the best. There's no other doctor that we would use for a pulmonary needs! Thank you Dr. Debella. We love you!

    This was the first time I have been to visit this pulmonary doctor. He was a referral that was given to me during my stay in the hospital. I was very impressed with Dr. Debella. He took his time with me and explained things to me that had never been explained before. I am very pleased that now I have a new pulmonary doctor
