Patient Reviews
Sep 20, 2024
I have recently started seeing Dr. Mendez due to gallbladder stones developing while I was pregnant. She has taken the extra mile to examine all my blood work history as well as retesting me and doing more scans to make sure that everything is still doing okay. She is a great listener and always hears my concerns. I 100% recommend her to everyone. You will not regret having her as a doctor.
