Five stars is not enough. Dr Castro is the most caring, knowledgeable, compassionate and understanding physician I have ever met. She has taken care of my son for 20 years and is always there for us when we need her. I trust her decisions and sleep easier at night after she sees him. I would trust no one else with my son's medical issue. She truly is one of a kind and cares for her patients as if they were her own children. Her office staff is wonderful, caring and accommodating. You will not a find a better Pediatric Cardiologist!!
