“I thought Joseph was a really nice person and he was professional and friendly. I felt listened to and respected as a nonbinary person. My preferred name and pronouns were used by staff (I am afab but use he/him pronouns.) I am very happy with the care I received.”

Ellen B.January 31, 2025

“I was very nervous about starting fresh with a new Primary, had not been to the doctor in a few years and wanted to get back on track with annual physical and other age related (50) exams. Dr. Lugo was very thorough and took his time asking questions about family history and other to provide guidance and customized care to my personal medical history. There was no judgment about neglecting my health in the past and felt good about moving forward! As someone who works in healthcare, I am hyper focused on a clean medical environment. The front desk and nurse was also friendly, patient and helpful.”

Very impressed. Very knowledgeable and takes time to understand all concerns and issues. Great listener and takes a holistic approach to triaging what’s going on. Takes time to explain diagnoses, all options and what his recommendation is for next steps. Highly recommend.
