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.

Horrible doctor! His bedside manners are poor. This doctor would not give me eye contact to discuss my Dad’s results. He would not allow me to ask questions… his response is that I’m not his patient, so he does not need to talk to me. This doctor has too much ego and pride and is extremely insensitive. I have never met or encountered such an unprofessional physician. If you want a machismo physician who can care less and won’t give eye contact, then this is your doctor. Good luck!!

Mine and my husband's experience with Dr. Villaseñor and his staff have always been positive. I recommend him anytime anyone asks for a cardiologist. I think the whole staff starting with the doctor are very caring individuals.
