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.

Dr. Vega, is an awesome physician compassionate, caring Transparent, Don't play with your health, and well-being. Professional at all times. I've seen Dr Vega. At his lowest and he never missed a beat.

Dr. Vega apparently has too many patients to actually take care of them professionally and ethically. He has no time and does not get back to you within a reasonable time frame. I was having major issues and I am consistently put off, and always an excuse. Medications are NEVER filled on time and you would think when you have an appointment he would check to see what refills that are needed, but instead, you are calling the in house pharmacy multiple times to try to obtain your well needed medication. He feels he has over 24 hours to get back to you, whether it is an major issue or not. He only is available at this location on Thursday, so also keep that in mind, as well as he can’t get to his office when he is supposed to be there. Take my advice and find an adequate physician. Dr. Vega take on too many patients and does not have the ability to keep up. His staff is also inadequate. The only response that you can obtain is excuse after excuse.
