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 Rodolfo Ruiz-Velasco is the kind of doctor that unfortunately there are less and less in the medical community. Dr. Velasco appears to go out of his way to make you as a patient feel welcome, he listens to you and takes his time to explain whatever condition you went in for, and the reasons why he is recommending a specific treatment. I would definitely recommend Dr Ruiz Velasco

I went to go see this Dr. a year ago regarding workers compensation case. He spend less than 5 min in the room and sent me to get 2nd opinions. Despite FOUR doctors stating I was able to go back to work, he put a restriction on me, which didn't allow me to work. He never returned phone calls, and wouldn't see me for a follow up appointment. No explanations and all he did was have his staff point fingers to other doctors, when in reality those doctors said i was fine. WORST doctor i've ever seen!
