Apr 05, 2019
My dad 93 years had an appointment with Dr. Castro today and I was very impressed and amazed at the amount of time he spent with going through the medical history and getting reports etc. This doctor has a great bedside manner and is a caring person. A nice change from some of the other doctors who see my dad. Totally recommend Dr Castro.
