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.

Simply the best - cares about patients, takes plenty of time in consultation, professional, and provides excellent medical care. I would never think of going to anyone else.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Benavides?
Dr. B is very knowledgeable. Whatever illness you have he knows what to do. Although he is a very quiet man, he listens to you and makes you feel like everything is going to be fine. Considering that Dr. B. is a very busy man, he never makes you feel rushed; on the contrary, he listens and calms you down if you are worried or nervous about something. Dr. B is very dedicated to his profession; to me he was God sent at a time when my life changed because I had to start taking care of my parents who had both started with dementia. He is very patient with the elderly and still gets my 101 year old mom to smile when she goes for her office visits. God Bless You Dr. B.
