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 visit with Dr. Velez was kind of a surprise since my treating Dr. had been Dr. Tlentino for the last two years. Dr. Velez checked all my records, asked many questions since I hadn’t been for a check up for a long time. She ordered refills for my medications and told me to contact Juan, his very nice and efficient assistant to get my test results. Both Dr. Velez and Juan were kind, cordial and very professional. The lab and other personnel I had to see were very nice as well. As always,

Very unprofessional, lax. Failed to see obvious discrepancies between ultra sound report and radiology thyroid scans. Radiology scan finding by Dr Sanford I Davis (took 17 days?!) is showing 2 dates of birth, 2 dates of test and wrong time - nodule was described on the wrong side of thyroid. Dr Velez did not notice that and I had to point it to her. She ignored my emails to get third party reading. Third reading she didn't want to touch. She is with Elite health - dangerous to your life.
