Patient Reviews
Nov 08, 2022
Dr Centeno is literally an amazing doctor! He actually listens to his patients and shows that he actually cares! He was the only doctor that believed my pain and helped me after other doctors would turn me down. He did my surgery back in April 2022 and my final surgery to reconnect my colon in October 2022. Im forever grateful for this doctor! You can actually tell he has passion for his job and that’s what makes him the great doctor and human that he is today! Thank you again Dr. Centeno for being a great person !
