After a thorough examination, Dr. Lopez explained the diagnosis, possible treatments, and what to expect from the chosen treatment.
Downside: filling out 10-15 pages of paperwork with repeated questions on every page.

More than 1 year agoTara B.Verified patient
When I got there, they asked for X-rays, but warned that radiology was under different insurance from their office and they were not very helpful in ensuring I was covered. Dr. Lopez was perfectly adequate if not magical.

February 26, 2020Fernando M.Verified patient
Dr. Lopez is a focused and empathetic doctor. My ailment was a very minor one, yet he listened to all my symptoms. Fully tested range of motion & neurological. Tested with Ultra-sound right in the exam room. Answered ALL my questions. Recommended a conservative & thoughtful treatment protocol. I haven't had that type of Dr. visit in over 30 years.
February 14, 2020Paul L.Verified patient
This was my second visit. Like the first he was very thorough and informative. He took the time to explain and also to listen. He seems like a genuine caring person which a lot of doctors are not. Not to mention easy on the eyes too. Would gladly come back and recommend.
