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.

Best Female Health Doctor
Very nice, understands my concern about my privacy during examination and very thorough with the information he gives me about options and my choices. Her staff were wonderful as well. I am very hopeful she will be able to help my problem with "God's" guidance. Thank you Dr. Yahir and Mrs. Nedy who recommended me to see you who also had a very amazing experience with you 5 years ago. Thank you.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Santiago-Lastra?
Dr Santiago-Lastra performed surgery on me and I can not be more happier than I am. She has explained everything in detail on my visits, she treated me with respect, answered all my questions and concerns. She listens and hears her patients, spends time as much as one needs till all questions are answered, you will not go home with anxiety of your questions not answered. Dr Santiago gave joy of my life back without fear of embarrassment with my urinary problems. I will recommend her to everyone.
