Recent reviews

Dr. Gaona was very thorough and addressed all of my concerns in one visit. He was able to identify and resolve issues I've had for several years that other doctors not only were unable to resolve but hardly addressed.
Verified patient
Dr Gaona is nice, so grounded and is so thorough with his exams. That kind of feeling that you would trust him.

This is the worst doc ever. I went for an annual wellness check but the doc did nothing but ask a few questions. And I need to pay out of my pocket for blood test. Such a greedy doctor. All he want is entice u to pay.
