About
At Greater Rochester Internal Medicine, two physicians share a deep commitment to prevention and proactive chronic disease management. Dr. Anthony Ragusa founded the Rochester, NY practice in 1996. Dr. Mark Sarnov joined in May 2019, bringing decades of regional clinical experience. Both doctors treat adults 18 and older across a broad range of internal medicine needs. The practice holds a clear clinical philosophy: catching and controlling disease early produces far better outcomes than treating it later. Conditions like diabetes, heart disease, hypertension, and asthma/COPD receive focused, aggressive management. On-site laboratory and X-ray services support timely diagnosis. The practice also offers an optional program through Dr. Ragusa, which caps his panel at 400 patients and includes same-day appointments, house calls, after-hours direct access, and extended visits. Patients manage records and communicate securely through the Connect platform and the Medent Mobile portal. The practice accepts most major commercial insurance plans and Medicare.
