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.

Amazing doctor who cares!
The clinic is run seamlessly and everybody cares about each patient— it’s obvious

I was new to the area and in need of a doctor. Youens and Duchicela Clinic came highly recommended by several people. I was informed any doctor at this facility would be a great choice. They were right! I chose to see Dr. J. Duchicela. He was very, kind, compassionate and informative. I felt like a person not a number. The staff was super friendly! I will forever be his patient. We're very fortunate to have a doctor/facility in the area of this magnitude.

I've had several dates with Dr Duchicela. He has an excellent staff, who make me feel at home. I highly recommend him since he treats his patients in a comprehensive way. What can you expect from the Texas Family Physician of the Year? Do not hesitate to go to see him

Doctor Duchicela is affable, affordable, very able and approachable. They take walk-ins and you can be seen without any appointment if it is urgent. He knows what being a family medicine physician means. He knows you, your family your background. Do not hesitate to have him as your doctor.

My parents see Dr. Jorge Duchicela. They have repeatedly had to wait over an hour to see the Dr. When they do see him, he is in a hurry and rarely remembers why he told them to come in for another appt . He asks my Dad to come in every month, to include blood tests which have the same result. In addition, issues are not addressed. He was given an MME at my urging. After, the worker said "The Dr said you have mod. to severe memory loss", and we were dismissed. No expl., no referral. Seriously?
