Dr. Cruz was very attentive when listening to my comments and concerns and answering my questions. He appreciated that I have a strong background in science (Ph.D. In chemistry) so kept the level of our discussions at a high level, and agreed with a number of my requests for additional testing. I enjoyed my first visit with him and would highly recommend him to future patients.

Nov 30, 2023

4.6

I don't know how to begin... I felt the Dr. Was extremely nervous and jumpy. No eye contact, he rapidly looked side to side when talking, not at a computer screen, which I found unsettling from the beginning. He acted strangely not like a professional Dr. I was there to meet him for the first time as well as discuss the results of my annual visit. Maybe, he was sleep deprived, he mentioned having a new baby? Just not a good first impression of him. [...] I am not feeling the confidence I use to feel, but there doesn't seem to be any other options for care. I am thankful, I don't visit the Dr. More than a few times a year... [...] Hopefully, this Dr. Will be better the next time I see him. If not, I will have to seek another practice.
