Patient Reviews
Apr 15, 2020
Dr. Alcantera has saved my life, both literally and figuratively. Throughout my life (45 years) I have seen DOZENS of specialists with no answers, no relief nor any concern. In 2018, my new primary doctor referred me to Dr. Alcantera and told me, "If anyone can help you, it is this doctor. If he can't help you, no one can." In the first 5 minutes of my appointment with Dr. Alcantera, I knew he was the answer to my prayers, and I was right. Within 3 short months, he diagnosed my condition and performed surgery. I went from pain, sickness, and misery to actual being able to function and enjoy life. Dr. Alcantera genuinely cares for his patients and is an amazing doctor. 5 stars are not nearly enough!!
