"This experience was beyond frustrating. Instead of receiving timely care, I was met with delays, poor communication, and unnecessary hurdles. Doctors like this should have their license taken away!"
— WebMD patient review of Dr. Martha Lozano"I highly recommend Dr. Sanchez, he is a great doctor who was professional, compassionate, and serious about addressing my health issues."
— WebMD patient review of Dr. Luis Sanchez"Apparently appointments don't matter since I am not seen until 2-3 hours after my scheduled appointment. Don't really care for the staff but no big deal."
