    From the very first day, everyone was very kind and the care was excellent-from the reception staff, coordinators, and nurses, to the doctor. Dr. Velázquez was outstanding; he takes the time to answer all your questions and truly listens. I highly recommend him.

    Everyone at this office treated me like they were happy to see me and interested in me having the best experience possible. Hearing Dr. Velazquez speak with his staff, they clearly treat everyone that way because he treats everyone that way. With him treating me and doing my surgery, I'm confident all will go well!
