Patient Reviews
Dec 21, 2023
I went to Dr. Prieto for a second opinion and I am so grateful I did. He is so kind and compassionate, you can tell he really cares and wants the best for his patients. Wait times can be long but appointments are never rushed, making it worth it. He is the best doctor I have ever been to and highly recommend him to anyone with colorectal problems.
