Patient Reviews
Jan 23, 2018
Wonderful Doctor! I would not go any where else. After years of seeing different GI's, I was recommended Dr. Palma from a friend. Dr. Palma took the time to look through my previous reports and decided to run additional exams. I was told over and over it was nothing but he believed me. Soon after the cause of my pain was determined. He immediately treated me and I have been pain free.
