Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Great doctor. Listens and explains everything
Very customer-friendly front desk staff and Joana, the nurse is very friendly and knowledgeable. The office, from the waiting area to the examination rooms are spotless clean. I highly recommend Dr. Carlos Alonso, without a doubt.

No empathy and lack of patients’ well being
Despite staff’s professional service and clean facilities, it is unfortunate that Dr Carlos Alonso lacks interest in his patients, no empathy. He did not perform any visual or physical exam, no written explanation or pamphlet was given to me explaining the type of arthritis I have. Even though I asked multiple questions, Dr Alonso’s answers were vague and short and no physical therapy or basic stretches were suggested during the interim that I cannot start treatment and improve my everyday life. The patients’ plain and empty rooms reflect the lack of educational materials like pamphlets, pictures and body diagrams for patients to understand and educate themselves. Overall experience has been really frustrating.

Long overdue and not impressed
I saw Dr. Alonso in 2022 and was not happy with the attention he gave, how hard it was to make an appointment with him. Why would someone in pain have to wait a month? Before writing this review, I recommended a friend and he had to wait almost 2 months to see Dr. Alonso. I recommend Dr. Sweeney he listens, does a full examination taking his time, is not constantly looking at his phone and doesn’t try to just prescribe medication.

Very satisfied
The intake process took a few minutes, but the front desk staff was very pleasant and helpful. First the medical assistant went over my history and took my vitals. The nurse practitioner went over my medical complaints in great detail. The doctor came in and we had a comprehensive discussion of what could be causing my problems and how to treat them. Overall, very professional and effective. Happy with my decision to seek medical attention here.

Waited more than an hour to be seen first by the nurse practitioner and later by doctor Alonso. Seems that the nurse practitioner takes control and manages visits. Doctor was ok, does not take much time to answer questions, dismissive.
