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.

He said he could open my artery with a balloon. The day of surgery a totally different procedure was done by a different doctor. Dr Mena never showed up and never had the decency to come tell me why, while I was there for 3 hours waiting to go home. It's 4 days later and I haven't gotten an explanation. This is the second time he has tried the same thing. At least the last time he tried to place a Stent and failed. I don't know why I trusted him to try the balloon but he said there was new tools and technology now and he could do it. Don't trust this man. He promises more than he can deliver
