Patient Reviews

May 12, 2021

We loved Dr Ballestas. I personally was told when I called to make an appointment that he was gone. I asked when he was coming back and was told he wasn’t! I saw one of the NP’s and asked him what was going on with Dr Ballestas. Did he retire? He told me not to spread gossip! I was originally told by Dr Ballestas office he was gone! How is that gossip? He never answered me. One of my Specialists was going to have my Primary follow me. When they saw Dr Ballestas was my primary, they told me they heard he was leaving! So they referred me to another Primary. NOW, I hear he’s there but part time. I don’t know! He was a great doctor to us and we would not have left, if we knew what was really going on!
