I am new to the area and finding new doctors is a very stressful thing. From when he first walked in the door I knew we had made the right choice.

He always listens and does not dismiss anything you say, but rather evaluates it and explains why it may, or may not be valid. Both Dr Rivero and Joshua Coons are an excellent team.
