I have third stage clear cell sarcoma cancer and multiple other problems. And I must say that they are trying their best to compensate me to the best of their abilities at this current time. I work 12-16 hours days. I have already lost my left foot due to clear cell sarcoma cancer and it has returned. I'm in constant pain! And this clinic is trying their best to help me. But with the government attacking all doctors, their scared to give me what I really need to get by. I love them all. They are so friendly and attentive towards me at all my visits. And they have gone above and beyond to help me with my insurance company that are giving us a hard time with my medications. They are a great team. So if you really need a good supportive doctor, you will find them here. Thanks ZOCDOC

Verified patient
Rudest doctor I have ever met. He did not look me in the eye at any point. When I said “Pleased to meet you”, his response was “I doubt it”. Refused to take me as a patient, assumed I would ask him to prescribe something inappropriate, told me there were lots of other doctors in the City. Dreadful doctor.

Respect time it’s was ok
Verified patient
I waited more than an hour to see the doctor. Then they told me to go to a different location. Then after another hour, the doctor spoke to me for less than 5 mins and rushed out. Leaving the PA to continue the appt. And leaving the patient unsure of what he is taking, why, how it'll help, what are the benefits/side effects. Dr Perez seemed not to care about my well-being and chronic pain. He assumed my situation rather than taking a minute to ask what has been nothing me. He made a diagnosis without a conversation.
Verified patient
It was a waste of my time as I got there and they said they could not continue my current meds as they do not give refills for opiods. This should been stated before I came in this was a wasted 4 hrs
Verified patient
I been in and out this office for around 5-6 months right after surgery and they still haven't been able to help me out with my issue, you're better off going to Urgent Care MD.
Verified patient
Total joke and waste of time.
Verified patient
It was ok. Not as good as I expected.
Verified patient
Could of been better Long wait . and they messed up my prescriptions and sent them to two different pharmacies without my knowledge.
Verified patient
Awesome
Verified patient
I had a great experience
Verified patient
Dr.Duran is so awesome! I'm a young female that could hardly walk. She took her time and got me better immediately. Evey visit she is so amazing.
Verified patient
Not bad, they didn't judge me and treated me like a human being. The only problem was if my primary care doc wasn't out sick they gave me the same meds I'm already getting from him. I feel like that's ripping off the insurance company almost but, what do I know? All I do know is I'm still in pain and I need more help than they gave me..
Verified patient
I went to Dr. Perez for an EMG and he was very patient when it comes to explaining my ongoing pain issue. He made sure I understood what is causing the pain and the different treatment options that is optimal for me. Would definitely go back for a follow up.
