The visit was pleasant and he didn't rush me out of the office. Due to my pregnancy, he took the time to explain the reasons why I couldn't take certain medications. The wait time was about 35-40 min but that could be because I am a first timer there and the office was crowded. I will continue to see this doctor in the future.

Such a great experience! Dr. Correa was very patient and attentive, and answered all my questions thoughtfully. He was never condescending and didn't rush the appointment. I usually HATE doctor visits, because of the dismissive/patronizing/borderline rude manner some will have, but Dr. Correa is such a sweetheart!
Be aware that the waiting room is TEENY, so if your child is in anything bigger than an umbrella stroller you might have some trouble getting in and out.

He is good. But office staff is inattentive. Called in several times to request prescription and my pharmacy never received.

We moved recently and we were looking for pediatrician we came across this doctor. Apparently he is a Primary Care Doctor who is also working with next door pediatrics.
FYI waiting room is tiny, you wont be able to bring your stroller with you. There are no separate Sick and Well-child areas.
We had to do blood test there. The lady that took my 2 year old son's blood took so little blood. I guess she accidentally pulled out the needle. When I asked her if it will be enough for testing, she goes "it's ok it's ok" Well we got the test results, guess what? It is not ok. You know what else is not ok making a child go through the same thing again. Also not ok to lie to people to save the day.
This nurse or assistant works there and she represents the practice. Without any hesitation I can tell you this practice is unethical and unprofessional.

Best Dr I have ever met - Keeping this one!
July 6, 2016Erin O.Verified patient
Dr . Correa is honestly the best. He actually listened to my problems and I truly felt better with just the plan of care he recommended. The staff isn't as medically educated as they should be BUT I'm willing to continue my care in the office just because Dr. Correa is that good!

Pleasant experience and since it was my first time there I expect it took longer than normal to get all the first time paperwork done. I'll see how future visits are handled.
March 28, 2016Steven P.Verified patient
Very nice and welcoming.
January 18, 2016Mariely S.Verified patient
I have never found a Doctor that I felt comfortable with. They would often perform tests or prescribe me medication without explaining why they are doing any of this. Dr. Correa not only explained EVERYTHING, but he also gave me options of what avenues I had at my disposal. I just booked my follow up meeting with him and couldn't be any more satisfied to finally find a Doctor I feel comfortable going back to.
December 28, 2015Brian V.Verified patient
Great doctor! I have visited him few times and he has always given me the right treatments & medications. I get better within a few days. Definitely recommend him.
December 7, 2015Deepa M.Verified patient
Dr. Correa was very thorough and knowledgeable about his field. I went in for an annual physical and he tested me for everything including vitamin levels. Which I gladly appreciated. He also took the time to go over the results with me. I will definitely return

Visit with Dr. Luis was great. He was nice and quick. I would have appreciated a heads up regarding the wait time (I waited 45 minutes) but once I saw the Doctor, appt was quick and straight forward.

He was extremely thorough with everything. He answered all the questions I had and did not rush to leave at all. He made sure he throughly went over anything I didn't understand at first, referred me to other office that specialized in the fields I needed treating in. He is an excellent doctor! I would definitely go back
This doctor is just simply amazing, he took his time with me and asked me questions even gace me extra medicstion for my problem, so i can get better fast. Hes most certainly going to be my prime doctor.

We had the paperwork complete at home so after we arrived at the office the process was faster. It took about twenty minutes to see the doctor.
The nurse did preliminary testing and was thorough . When the doctor came in he was up to speed with our situation. It was a short visit but accomplished all that was needed.

I totally recommend him, the office is clean, the nurse was super nice with us (my husband and me). The Doctor answer all my questions, very professional.
February 14, 2015Loreto O.Verified patient
Dr. Luis Correa is a very kind and sweet person. The way he treats his patients is spectacular and he is very dedicated. I would definitely recommend him to everyone in my family.
January 20, 2015Angelita O.Verified patient
The doctor was really nice- he was running a bit late, for which he was apologetic about. Was a short visit, but helpful. The nurse/assistant that took my BP reading and all of the initial readings though, wasn't terribly friendly and seemed annoyed at having to do these tasks. That being said, the front desk girl was very friendly and conversational.

Doctor Correa actually listens to his patients. I felt more like a welcomed guest than a doctors visit. Furthermore, he is a great internist, unlike other doctors which tell patients to walk it off, Dr. Correa actually prescribes when appropiate.
December 29, 2014Ruth B.Verified patient
Dr. Correa is very profesional and so is his staff. The office is well kept, very clean and organize. Dr. Correa takes the time to listen to your concerns and does the necessary exams to follow through.

Excellent Experience. I was really impressed with the amount of time Dr. Luis spent discussing every question I had. I would recommend.
December 5, 2014John K.Verified patient
By far, the best experience I have had in a very long time. Not only is the doctor knowledgeable but he listens well and has a conversation with you instead of dictating to you like most doctors do. The staff is superb and super friendly too, I love this place and my whole family will be seeing this doctor from now on!!! I am so happy that I was finally able to find a reliable health provider with convenient hours and superb customer treatment.
October 4, 2014Carmen O.Verified patient
This doctor seems to be in great demand. Whilst I commend the way he talked to me, how attentive he was, I wish I didn't have to wait that long.
But despite the wait, I will continue to see him. It is precisely because he listens and takes good care of his patients, one can expect delays. I have always had a fantastic experience with Dr. Correa
December 6, 2014Rohit N.Verified patient
