Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Velasco has that rare but wonderful combination of outstanding clinical knowledge and great interpersonal skills. She and her staff are very professional, efficient and caring. She and her staff provide clear, simple instructions for visits and procedures; are available for questions and very thorough. Highly recommended. 6 stars.

Uncaring Dr. Doesn't answer phone calls. Call three times in one day with severe problems that I was dealing with that she knew about because I had previously talked to her earlier in the week and her staff said they absolutely gave her the messages and I waited and waited for a return phone call. I would never go to Dr. Brenda Velasco and hope you would never go as well

Not only is Dr. Velasco kind and down to earth, she is an amazing doctor with excellent skills. She found my problem immediately after having three procedures with another physician. I can't say enough about her and her staff. All friendly and kind. Office visits, you barely sit down and you are called back into an exam room, no being left behind to wait there either, Dr. Velasco comes right in with a huge smile.
