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.

My experience
Dr Garcia has a caring and complete understanding of what my issues are. I am sorry to see her leave but am as equally happy for her success in her new location. I would recommend her to anyone in search of a new primary care. She really cared and help to improve my medical condition with adjusted medicine. Thank You Dr. Garcia.

My experience and my opinion
She missed a herniated/ruptured discs, and both knees had meniscus tears (2), bcause I have MS and it’s stable she didn’t look beyond MS. She already had her opinion. And to go as far to contact other providers and administrators in her practice not to believe me. She refused to do testing or even consider there could be something other than MS going on. I was rushed to the hospital and the disc ruptured and the meniscus tear went untreated so surgery had to be performed. My advice if some feels off and you know something is going on with your body, continue to get the right provider to listen and do those test. Now I’m suffering with life long issues because of her “opinion” not her medical proof.. she never once laid a hand on me to exam or look outside the box that’s it could be something else. She bullied me and threatened me! I’m not the only one that has endured her inept care, it’s their story to tell. I felt it was my duty to share my experience. I saw her at a prior office!

I was without a primary care physician and picked Dr Garcia because she was a female accepting new patients. To my surprise she has exceeded my expectations and one of the best doctors I've ever met. She is great at listening and running enough tests to make sure everything is ok. I really appreciate her bed-side manor.
