Patient Reviews
Dec 21, 2016
Dr. Velayos gave me confidence in the excellence of his medical skills and also his softer patient skills. He is encouraging in the face of a lot of complicated and related possibilities, which is reality, I think, for a lot of GI symptoms. He is fact-based and scientific, and ordered all tests needed, and the therapies he recommended (for different problems over the years) worked when years of treatment from other doctors hadn't.
