Verified patient
I had a injury in the pass that reoccured abruptly. Dr. Benitez was able to fit me in for a visit the same day as a new patient. He contacted me immediately after to check on my improvement. I stuck to the regiment he gave me and I now feel so much improvement. Better than when the injury first happened years ago. Who knew we could live without foot pain. I would recommend Dr. Camilo Benitez to help heal current pain and prevent future pain as well.
Great! Very thorough.
