Happy with the Doc. Trying to schedule surgery. No one will call me back or give me the time of day. You shouldn’t judge people on how they look. I have insurance, but I pay cash. Don’t mind paying for a job well done, but I won’t stand for getting screwed.
Dr. Canizares is always so pleasant and very prompty.
