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.

New patient visit
Telehealth
My mom recently visited Dr. Garcia-Castro as a new patient, and unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. As a healthcare professional, it’s crucial to create an environment where patients—especially new ones—feel welcomed, comfortable, and heard. Unfortunately, my mom did not feel this way.She mentioned that the interaction lacked warmth and left her feeling uneasy about sharing her health concerns. This is concerning, as establishing trust is a foundational part of patient care. We hope Dr. Garcia and the staff take this feedback seriously to foster a more welcoming and supportive environment for all patients in the future.
