Patient Reviews
Mar 20, 2024
Dr Rivera is awesome. From the 1st time I met him and he explained my goal weight, to the time he performed a life saving hernia repair for me and as recent as coaching we through some regain, he has always been supportive, solution oriented and willing to explain in terms that help you better understand. If something isn’t working for you he goes above and beyond to find alternative solutions.
