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.

Worse bedside manner I have ever experienced
Dr. Ochoa is beyond rude!!! I was referred back to her clinic after some results I received by PCP. She was pretty much refusing to see me saying she didn’t know what I was doing there. I have my results in my hand from STIC as to why I was referred back and she’s like I don’t read MRI’s I said well obviously they had already been read these are results. The worse attitude ever!! There’s a way to speak to the patients and deliver a message or explain what she thinks not be very unprofessional. At the I was nice enough to say thank you and she didn’t even reply or look at me. Will not be returning and will not recommend. Sadly it’s her own specialty practice so no one to report her to but leave her the bad reviews so people know of her.

Appointment
Had appointment at 09:00 1-12-24, arrived 8:45 at office on 919 Locke, appointment papers in hand. 9:15 no one around, 09:30 still no one. A Methodist worker contacted someone in their chain and informed them I was there. Stated they would call me in a few minutes. Waited until 9:45 without contact so left. Still no contact or apology so conclude they could care less about your time or funds getting to their scheduled appointments. Would give them a zero if possible.

My husband had a AAA five years ago and was bleeding out, Dr. Ochoa was on call that night, and he needed emergency surgery. If not for her he would not be here.

Dr. Ochoa and her staff provided excellent services when I really needed them. I was a first time patient and needed immediate attention to my medical condition. I was scheduled to fly out of town on a Sunday. I called her office on the Friday before my departure and her staff arranged their schedules to see me that day. This type of response hardly ever happens with first time patients. Never in a hurry, Dr. Ochoa took the time to explain my diagnosis even as time passed on a Friday afternoon and the office emptying of patients. I highly recommend Dr. Ochoa because she truly exemplifies the Hippocratic oath.
