January 5, 2026Marc H.Verified patient
First greeter asked if I came in for any particular reason.
Wrote down my answer. When Doctor came in he asked about it and took a look at what I was talking about.
He then explained choices to take care of it and I made the final decision, which was done by the Doctor. He then continued with the rest of the examination and suggested using a cream for what is Athletics foot.

January 18, 2022Mark S.Verified patient
I was taken almost immediately upon arrival. Wait time in the examining room was negligible.
Dr. Falcon did his usual full body scan, diagnosed a couple of trouble spots, treated them and we were done....all efficiently in less than 10 minutes.

I've been his patient for decades, and he is the consummate professional. Warm, caring, knowledgable, and plenty of other adjectives describe him.
July 10, 2019Andrew S.Verified patient
I and my family have been patients of Dr Falcon's for YEARS! We absolutely love him and recommend him to everyone we know and meet! He is really an excellent doctor and diagnostician!
April 24, 2018Randi L.Verified patient
I have been a patient of Dr. Falcon for at least 20 years and would never consider changing! His bedside manner and concern for my well being have been terrific all along. He has even gone out of his way to personally call me at home a day or two after an office visit just to follow up on progress of treatment, etc. I have had the necessity to request a phone call back from him via his staff and he has called me literally within 15 minutes! I would consider myself to be rather proactive in my care and treatment of my affliction and he has always listened to my ideas, concerns, and has made mutual suggestions and decisions on treatment options. He and his staff are very well versed on the newest therapies available for my condition.
I would also like to point out two of his staff that have gone above and beyond to help me with insurance issues, prescription issues, etc and they are Gita & Gina.
