Patient Reviews
Jun 15, 2024
Dr. Vega is excellent and the best PCP. He works hard, provides compassionate care, listens attentively, and delivers quality outcomes. He is gifted in teaching, committed to creating healthy communities and training the next generation of PCPs. Dr. Vega is efficient, effective, reliable, and trustworthy. He takes time to respond to my clinical inquiries promptly and addresses my concerns. He took care of my health issues and made efforts to see me in the clinic right away when I had physical impairments with severe pain. My specialists stated they liked how Dr. Vega took care of me.I have been under Dr. Vega's care for many years. I trust his clinical judgment. I am delighted and highly recommend Dr. Vega to those who need care.
