Patient Reviews
Jan 04, 2018
Dr. Cantu is the best pediatrician of Laredo. The level of care he provides his patients is beyond ALL expectations! The doctor’s office will follow up and ask how your child is progressing, sometimes even the doctor himself! As a new mom, I feel very comfortable asking him any question because he explains everything in detail and with a lot of patience. Truly wish more doctors were like him.
