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.

Very thorough
Dr. Caballas took time to explain the issues with my foot. He often asked if I had questions while he was explaining things. Very polite, gentle, easy going. I was nervous about the injection, but his demeanor made me calm.

Simply the best
I’ve had knee injections for osteoarthritis from other specialists, but none of them gave me the pain-free outcome that Dr. Caballes did. He’s a great listener and communicator, and an excellent clinician. Now that I’ve experienced his expertise, I won’t go to anyone else!

5 Stars All the Way
I have seen Dr Caballas on two different occasions. First I was referred by Dr Ocel for injections in my left foot. Second I was referred for a torn tendon in my right hamstring. In the course of my evaluation I was also found to have a disc herniation at L5-S1.Dr Caballas provided excellent care. He made referrals where necessary. He is professional and personable. His office staff always got back to me in a timely mannerAs a retired physician the highest recommendation one can give is that there would be no hesitation inhaving Dr Caballas care for my family members or my own patients.

Initial Consultation 9-24-24
This initial visit was for a bilateral Achilles tendinitis issue. Ultrasound was used and he took the time to carefully explain the findings on the screen . I am in health care , so maybe that explains the more detailed time spent here? But he answered all of my many questions , laid out a treatment plan which was well explained , and gave me the percentages of success for what he was recommending.I found him to be a good listener , empathetic , and he geld a a good command of supporting medical literature on the matter.I am very optimistic that he can help me with my acute and chronic Achilles situation . I will be able to assess this outcome in the future and can report back as to my hopeful success. I give him 5 Stars so far.

Explains in clear detail.
The times I have seen Dr. Caballes he has explained to me in a verbiage which is easy to understand what issues I am experiencing and what options are available to me for treatment. During my visits I did not feel rushed and I was given a clear and concise view of what options were available and what expectations I may or may not see. For myself I felt that nothing was sugarcoated and I was able to make an informed decision to proceed with the treatment offered.

Gifted Doctor
Dr. Caballes listens carefully to my concerns and explains 'medical speak' in easy to understand terms. He provides details and honest feedback regarding findings on imaging as well as my progress. He is up to date with current research and is intellectually curious about his profession. His PRP technique is both gentle but firm. I always feel confident regarding his advice and procedures.
