Dr. Jimenez goes above and beyond and is the sweetest, down to earth person. He takes great care to be sure no stone is left unturned. Dr. Jimenez receives an A+ from myself and our family. His office staff are also most helpful, very friendly and take great care with detail. Wait time is also never that long. An A+ team. THANK YOU Dr. Jimenez and staff, looking forward to seeing you all again in July. Kind regards, Dorothy (Dolly) Quill
