Patient Reviews
Oct 06, 2024
I have been a patient of Dr. Martinez for a few years. I have had a lot of contact with Dr.'s in my life as an athlete and through health issues. Most are apathetic and don't swpend a lot of time studying modern medical develpments as well a prescrition drugs. Dr. Martinez does. He also doesn't have that 'gog' complex where they resent you asking questions. Dr, Martinez doesn't and takes the time too answer any questions you have. That provides a lot of comfort. He won't tell you want to hear to just send you down the production line. Another amazing attribute of his is that if he isn't an expert at what issue you may have he will research it and become one before he treats you for it. He is also one of the few Dr.'s that truly cares for his patients. His honesty and concern are attributes in the medical profession! he even helps you navigate insurance and medicare!
