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. Velasco is great, but the office staff is never available. They take forever to answer the phone. There's no-one available to talk about billing issues.

Horrible experience. Dr. Velasco was uncaring and in a rush. Even making sighs as if you're wasting his time. I went to him for help but received nothing but frustration.

Great bedside manner. Really listens and he knows his stuff. He hasn't helped me get through some really rough time with my rare disease. Nice to know there's a doctor out that that cares about his patients.

Dr. Velasco is a compassionate and caring doctor. His knowledge and experience leads to his driving passion that truly makes him a wonderful doctor. He makes time with you to discuss your diagnosis and treatment options available, answering any questions you may have. He is very careful to disperse the correct medication according to your diagnosis. He makes certain that you keep up with your orthopedic surgeon, neurosurgeon, and any other doctors that may be helpful to your diagnosis.

Dr Velasco is a caring, compassionate, and talented Doctor. I was extremely apprehensive before my procedure for my back shots and not only did he put me at ease once he entered the room, but also performed the procedure with expertise, much care, and promptness. What I fear was going to be a very painful experience, turned out to be one with very minimal discomfort, and great results. He truly has the hands of an Angel.
