Yajaira Cervantes is always patient, listens to my concerns, and offer recommendations. She explains my labs, so that I understand the results. Yajaira notifies the receptionist, who is aware of scheduling my future appointments when I check out. My experience with Yajaira Cervantes is always positive.

Friendly and understanding as swell as helpful
Dr Cervantes has handled my care off and on for years. Her opinion and guidance with my health is respected. Her bedside manner, knowledge and overall care is exactly what I have been looking for.
First time Visit with Yajaira. I had a virtual visit to discuss lab results. I also mentioned to her that I needed to bring FMLA paperwork for my job protection because I experience headaches/migraines very often due to stress/anxiety, and alergies. I let her know that I have been with my job for over 17 years and have had FMLA with my current job and previous jobs with the same physician and then he stopped doing all paperwork for all patients which is why I decided to get another doctor and was advised that it was something your office did do. However when I tried speaking with her about it she basically said she wasn’t going agree to fill it out without a form of treatment and there was no way she was going to approve what I have had in the past as far as time approved For my illness. I did let her know that I was seeing A psychologist as well as a psychiatrist for stress and anxiety. And that I have had CAT scans for the headaches and wasn’t sure what she meant by treatment.
Great person to see very helpful and knowledgeable.
