Patient Reviews

Jul 10, 2022

Good doctor, if not the best at TrueCare, San Marcos location. That's probably the reason it's so hard to get an appointment with him (usually 2-3 months to get an appointment). He spends time with his patients about their health and any issues since the last visit, listens to his patients concerns, answer their questions in layman's terms and give recommendations and referrals regarding your health issues (unlike some doctors I've seen before who easily "dismiss" my concern about what I feel in my body, and how I feel about my overall health). I highly recommend this doctor to anyone.
