Patient Reviews
Sep 22, 2017
After being with Kaiser for 45 years I moved out of their service area when I moved to the SBA area. I was assigned to Dr. Ponce based on other reviews that he had been given. I met him yesterday for the first time and found him to be very knowledgable and seemingly caring. He did not rush thru the appointment but took the time to get to know me. He immediately set me up for blood work and dermatology appointments because of my past history. I feel I have found a new partner for my health
