Excellent pediatrician - she's been the doctor of all 3 of my children for the last 8 years and wouldn't go anywhere else.
Staff is very pleasant and helpful in answering all of my questions.
Dr. Velez was very thorough and took her time with us. She was very kind and playful while still maintaining professionalism. She’s very knowledgeable and I highly recommend her.
Dr. Velez is thorough, thoughtful, and asks lots of questions. She really advocates for her patients. I highly recommend her!
Great experience. Felt very comfortable and she was very nice and helpful. Scheduling is simple and easy. Overall, very pleased.
A colleague recommended Dr. Velez to me after a not-so-great first experience with Botox under another doctor nearly 6 months ago. She really took the time during the consultation to understand my concerns and unlike in my prior experiences, actually recommended a less invasive option that took care of the exact spots I was most concerned about, but using half as many units as I had gotten the first time, and costing much less than I was anticipating. Glad I made the switch.
