I had a wonderful first visit with with Dr. Francisco Cruz-Pachano. Having just recently arrived in Florida, I have had to "start over" with all new doctors and that is always a little nerve-wracking. I was checked in and asked inside right away. Crystal, my nurse, was friendly and immediately reassuring. I got an instant good vibe! She drew blood and I didn't feel the needle *at all*...she is seriously good! I don't think I waited longer than 3 minutes inside the exam room. Dr. Cruz-Pachano listened intently as I explained my symptoms and my extensive medical history without rushing, interrupting or dismissing me. He proceeded to examine me (surprisingly not painful or uncomfortable at all) and clearly explained our next steps. Overall, I am very glad I did my homework and decided on this practice. I feel I will be in great hands going forward.
