Patient Reviews

Jan 12, 2021

I had been ill for a few days and could barely walk. Front desk staff got me a wheelchair immediately. Mario Rangel and his assistants took great care of me. I have used Dr Vela as our PCM for three years now and have always been treated well. Yes, you will have to patient with wait time occasionally. Good medical service takes time.
