About Us | Meet The Doctors
Detail Doctors was co-founded by Gene Vicari and Donato Salvo, childhood friends who launched their first location in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in June 2021. Dr. Gene has extensive experience in the automotive industry, having followed in the footsteps of his grandfather, Sam Scaffidi, owned Heiser Automotive, one of the largest dealership groups in Milwaukee.
