I absolutely loved her and her staff. The front desk was courteous and professional, the nurse who assisted was sweet and patient. There was 2 doctors who seen my daughter: Dr. Cruz, and one who I believe said is assisting Dr. Cruz, and they were both great! They were both very thorough with their check up and very good with my daughter. I'm trying to sort out some issues I'm having with my insurance right now, I normally go to Kaiser, and found Dr. Cruz online. I'm so glad I did. I'm now having second thoughts on whether or not to go back to Kaiser. I was very impressed and satisfied with the care and time provided.
