I’ve been to MD Anderson for a mole screening before and Dr Godinez-Puig was even more thorough.
Really friendly team, got all my questions answered. Will definitely be back for my next screening.

Dr. Godinez was both thorough and efficient. It felt like I got real value for the appointment, but she was very professional and respectful of time, without rushing.

Dr. Godinez-Puig was great! She took the time to get to the potential root of my skin’s problems and did a great job answering all of my questions. She recommended a skincare regimen that was easy to follow and affordable.

The doctor had a great bedside manner and was very kind. She told me what she was going to do before she did it during the entire appointment so I knew what to expect. 100% would go back!
More than 1 year agoClare W.Verified patient
Dr. Godinez was so professional and friendly the entire time. She explained every part of the exam process really patiently, answered every question I had, and just overall made my experience very comfortable. The medical staff present were also really wonderful.

I was really nervous about getting a skin screen. Dr. Victoria and the whole staff were just amazing. She really took her time with me and was extremely detailed. I have already told my husband and mother in law to switch and go see her!
May 9, 2019Kathryn P.Verified patient
Dr. Godinez-Puig was great! She was incredibly thorough during the exam and went out of her way to make me feel as comfortable as possible. She also suggested some products to help my skin which I'm looking forward to trying. The office was clean and modern. I arrived about 15-20 minutes early to complete forms and I was in to the see the doctor even before my scheduled appointment time, and was in and out in 30 minutes. Jackie, I believe she was maybe the nurse or PA, was also wonderful.
May 8, 2019Victoria W.Verified patient
Dr. Godinez-Puig and her entire staff are honestly the nicest and most comprehensive staff I have ever seen! They were kind, courteous, and explained everything. I was able to have all my questions answered clearly and I never felt like I was taking up too much of her time. I have already recommended her and her office to my friends and family and cannot say enough positive things about my experience there.
More than 1 year agoOlivia V.Verified patient
Great caring professional. Welcome desk very unfriendly and slightly unprofessional. The specialist was great. The visit felt rushed though, which after a 30 minutes wait I shouldn't be responsible to make everything fit in 30 minutes. Good overall.
April 10, 2019Alice Jasmine C.Verified patient
Dr. Victoria Godinez-Puig is fantastic and explains things very well. The office management and treatment is one of the worst I've received, however. I waited more than 45 minutes to be seen (more than 30 minutes after my scheduled time) and the people at the front desk seemed very annoyed with me asking if I should do anything else/when I asked to re-confirm my appointment time since I did arrive early for the appointment and all (hoping to be seen on time). The doctor wanted to refer me to a different in office doc and the front desk people were speaking loudly about it so everyone could hear in the office the reason for my referral... VERY unprofessional and is that a violation of HIPAA? Additionally, when I saw the doctor she said she didn't have enough time for me to have a full appointment and so I must return again later this week. It is very frustrating and overwhelms me that I must return so soon and didn't even get the appointment I need to begin with. All that being said, the doctor and her assistant were kind, friendly, and knowledgeable. But, in hindsight, I'd suggest going someplace else unless you don't mind missing a few hours of work/having multiple visits!

Dr. Godinez-Puig is wonderful! She saw me right away (I only waited in the room for about 5 minutes) and she has a lovely bedside manner that put me right at ease. I came in for a yearly skin screening with concern about a mole that had disappeared. She was thorough and explained everything as she was examining my skin. Her front desk staff is great, too! They're very nice and quick -- even with filling out the new patient paperwork, I was called back within 15 minutes of arriving at the office.
April 3, 2019Gabrielle G.Verified patient
I felt very comfortable with Dr. Godinez-Puig, she was very attentive, she really listened, and she and the rest of the staff made me feel very welcome. Would highly recommend.
March 13, 2019Dennise S.Verified patient
Dr. Victoria took time to listen to my history and concerns, was professional and thoughtful with her plan of action. An overall great experience that I felt comfortable with and could trust how it suited my needs.
February 27, 2019Gabrielle M.Verified patient
Dr. Godinez-Puig was extremely knowledgeable and gave me some great solutions for my hormonal acne (fingers crossed)....Also she presented herself in a very professional way but also super friendly/sweet. Looking forward to our follow up appointment. Thanks Dr. GP!
February 27, 2019Rebecca P.Verified patient
Dr. Godinez-Puig was very kind, knew exactly what I should be on and listened carefully. The nurse, Jackie, was amazing! She was so warm and genuinely tried to help with ways to save on prescription costs.
February 27, 2019Raathai M.Verified patient
Realmente iba con mucha expectativa, y las superó, realmente se preocupa por el paciente y en lo personal me ayudó ya que no tengo aseguranza médica y me dio unos cupones y ayudó a buscar donde podÃa conseguir la medicina más accesible. 100% Profecional
February 4, 2019Katherine P.Verified patient
Everyone at the office was great! Really friendly, nice, and attentive staff. The doctor did a great job of explaining her diagnosis and her recommended course of treatment. I got to the office early and was already in the exam room before we were even due to begin. Thanks so much!
