I had the privilege of being under the care of Dr. Larissa Rodriguez, and my experience from the initial consultation through surgery, and one year of follow up has been exceptional. Dr. Rodriguez demonstrated remarkable knowledge, skill, and professionalism throughout every stage of my care. She provided a thorough and clear explanation of my condition, outlining the diagnosis, treatment options and possible outcomes with great detail and understanding. Her ability to communicate complex medical information in a way that was easy to understand made me feel confident and informed in my decisions. Dr. Rodriguez's surgical expertise and compassionate approach truly set her apart. She is patient, attentive, and dedicated to achieving the best possible results for her patients. Her entire team both in office and surgical setting for their professionalism, efficiency, and kindness. Their coordinated efforts and attention to detail made my experience seamless and reassuring. I am deeply grateful for the exceptional care I received, and highly recommend Dr. Rodriguez and her staff to anyone seeking outstanding medical treatment and patient within her Center care. 猸愶笍猸愶笍猸愶笍猸愶笍猸愶笍Thanks馃尭Flor-------- Thanks again Samanta, Flor
My consultation with Dr Mehta was a great experience. He has a comforting bed side manner and is spot on with my condition. He listened to my concerns and gave me sound medical advise. I feel very confident in Dr Mehta's course of treatment for me.
I was so extremely impressed with Dr Mehta. After meeting with him before my procedure I was so fully aware of my situation and it was such a relief to understand it all. He is very intelligent, patient and well spoken. I am so grateful for him. After the procedure I felt great and have had no pain! Thank you Dr Mehta!
