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.

I have been with Dr. Elena Garcia for many years, I trust her judgment completely with my medical care. I couldn’t imagine ever having to find anyone else to care for me.

Probably one of the easiest physicians I was able to talk to. She takes her time speaking with you and sincerely listens. Her staff is extremely welcoming and though you’re at “the doctor’s office” it’s easy to forget once begin talking with her and her nurse. I can’t say enough about them. Thank y’all for all you do.

I always feel like I'm meeting with a friend when I see Dr. Garcia. I am a diabetic and Dr. Garcia has helped me manage the illness. I'm impressed with her knowledge of new medications and she is careful to only make recommendations or adjustments when necessary. I would highly recommend Dr. Garcia to anyone.

Dr. Garcia is a wonderful physician. She takes her time to listen to what I have to say, and is caring in her response. Her nurse is great, too. If you're looking for a general practitioner... I highly recommend her!

My family and I have been seeing Dr. Garcia for many many years and will continue to see her for many to come. She takes the time to listen to what is going on in my life both medically and personally. She does a thorough exam on me every time I am in the office just to make sure that nothing has changed. I would highly recommend Dr. Garica to my friends and family!

Amazing Doctor! Been going to this doctor for years and I had my first pap smear with her. She was very thoughtful and comforting during the procedure making the new experience less stressful. Will continue to go to this doctor and would recommend.

Dr. Garcia is smart, caring, compassionate, and totally focused on me as a patient. I have total confidence in her skills/treatment plan and appreciate her interest in improving my overall well-being even after my immediate concern has been resolved. It is clearly evident that Dr. Garcia spends time researching/networking to enhance her ability to identify/refer the very best specialists as needed. I would highly recommend Dr. Garcia as well as her staff to my most beloved family and friends.

Dr. Garcia has been my PCP for the past 4 years. She is knowledgeable, capable and personable and takes time to address any issues or concerns I may have. I have never felt rushed, nor have I had to sit in the room for an excessive amount of time. The front desk is always courteous and the staff are attentive and thorough. The Patient Portal is an excellent tool allowing clients to access lab reports and easily request prescription refills, or ask simple questions and receive timely responses

Dr. Garcia has been my Doctor for over 15 years and I am so thankful for her most excellent care. The thing I appreciate most is the time she takes to examine me, listen as I discuss my symptoms, and then diagnose my problem for treatment (including an unusual whooping cough). I rarely am sick, but when I am she and her staff make me feel like I matter and they care.

I highly recommend Dr Garcia. After seeing a couple of specialists and not getting the results I wanted, I decided to switch over and let her take care of me. I recently received my bloodwork results and had perfect marks!!! She’s an excellent doctor with a great attitude!

Dr. Elena Garcia has been our family md for over ten years. She is dependable, trustworthy and knowledgeable. Treats my entire family included extended family. I even have family who's come from out of town for a second opinion and has been very helpful. Dr. Garcia spends the time needed to listen to concerns and is very thorough. I would highly recommend her. I also feel her office staff is amazing. Everyone is caring and thoughtful about you and your family.

Dr. Garcia is one of the kindest physicians I have ever been to. I have switched my primary care physician a few times because they weren’t willing to listen to me. Dr. Garcia sat with me for almost an hour going over everything and asking questions unlike any of the previous physicians. She really cares about each of her patients and it shows everyday.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Garcia?
I have seen her a few times and have been disappointed each time. She doesn't like to examine patients physically -- listen to lungs, heart, anything. She also is reluctant to refer to a specialist, which I need her to do if my insurance is going to cover a specialist visit. She is frequently condescending and dismisses any concerns. I switched to a different PCP and finally got treatment for my RA. I'm feeling much better that I am not under her care.
