Patient Reviews
May 02, 2024
I was so happy to find a Dr. in Yuba City that listens to all of my issues and addresses every one of them. I'm a new patient, but so far so good - I am thankful that my ongoing health concerns are finally being heard and addressed! I had great success with Kaiser but since moving out of their area my health has declined with the lack of any approach (or common courtesy to show up to my appointments) that my previous Dr. gave me. Dr. Afato is easy to discuss my issues with and seems to be taking the bull by the horns!
