Patient Reviews
Mar 10, 2023
Dr. Velez is knowledgeable, kind and takes a genuine interest in his patients. I was going not have a transplant due to some bs, that the transplant clinic/doctors put u thru. He took time out of his busy schedule to spend extra time with me to find dig into my concerns. He then discussed with me the benefits of the transplant and negatives of not getting it. He was honest and straight forward, holding nothing back. if u every have kidney issues, you would be lucky to have him for ur doctor friend. He's old school with get bedside manners, they don't make doctors like him any more, today he's one of a kind.
