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.

Will not go back
Over 1 hour wait in very cold office environment for doc who seemed unprepared. No chart, inadequate initial instructions for bloodwork, meds were overkill and made me feel worse than condition I went for, follow up was inadequate, the office never scheduled the stress test, and I ended up a day after the visit fainting twice from meds that plunged my BP to very low level. Have cancelled follow ups.

Dr. Giraldo was covering for my brother's usual doctor. Very genteel demeanor and took the time to explain when asked questions. Exhibited a positive vibe and was very confident and reassuring. Would definitely recommend Dr. Giraldo to anyone needing to see a cardiologist in the greater McAllen area.
