Patient Reviews
Oct 31, 2024
I can’t say enough incredible things about Dr Villafuerte. For one, he is the kindest and most supportive Dr I have had. His chair side manner should be mirrored by every physician. Not only is he kind, understanding, explains everything so you can understand, but he goes above and beyond to give every patient the time they need to ask as many questions as they feel they need too. He looks at you when talking to you, which seems hard to find these days. He is a Celiac Disease expert. He handles all aspects of Gastroenterology but truly looks at the whole body approach. He is very approachable in creating a plan to tackle whatever your condition may be. When you need to be seen, he makes sure you are! His administrative assistant, Michael is fabulous and always available to help too. He answers messages thru the portal quickly. I feel very fortunate to have him as my Dr! Thank you Dr Villafuerte.
