Dr. Valencia and staff listened with patience and kindness. He knew what MAC lung disease is and what next steps he would take. Also knew to get current labs from Quest. He is concerned regarding my very low immune system. I’m grateful for his young and professional insight into my future health care.

I completed my bloodwork for next week’s physical and was out in 30 minutes. Just in time to get across town and park for my annual dermatology look over. I like it when morning appointments are efficient!

Last time I was in they had the plastic barriers up from Covid times. I’m happy to see they came down. It’s a bit more comfortable. I do wish the front office was a little warmer w their interactions, but maybe that’s just doctors offices for you.

The repair men did not fix my problem with the refrigerator door, I expect you to send out a person to fix the issue.
I did pay you to replace my door seal, and you did an uncomplicated the job.
