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.

Nastiest worst Dr. I’ve ever been to. He doesn’t care about his patience. She has you in and out for two minutes and he laughs at your problems. If you tell him you have issues and he says it’s all in your head. He is the nastiest person I’ve ever met shame on him.

Gaslit, talked over, refused to listen
This doctor spent the entire visit trying to convince me to take psychiatric medications when I came in for neurological issues. I have localized numbness and tingling, zapping and vibration in my spine and head, vision changes in my right eye. This person saw numbness and a past history of depression and immediately redirected the appointment to address my mental health. I am not above getting help for mental illness. But I was referred to him to get help with a physiological problem. He asked me to diagnose myself repeatedly I kept saying I didn’t know since I wasn’t the doctor and I came to him for help. I finally told him what myself and family had thought since he wouldn’t let it go. He shut me down gladly saying “no, you know what it is.” Then said he sees people like me everyday denying mental health help. I left crying. I waited 6 months to be gaslit and treated like a liar. This man enjoyed playing games and ignoring my concerns.

Staff very friendly, organized, waited 5 months for an appointment but I was okay with that due to shortage of docs in the community.

Dr Lopez Vizcarra is taking care of my mother who unfortunately suffers from dementia. This a horrible disease, and most Doctors told me not much can be done about it, he put my mother in 2 medications to slow the disease, and other medication to improve her behavior, he has always showed concerns about my mother progress, and always treats her with compassion. I would certainly recomend Dr Lopez for anyone who has relatives with this disease.

He came in. Said my records having MS meant nothing. He really laid it heavy with the guilt trip to make do something his office could have done. I told him that I did not like the guilt trip and he responded with an ultimatum. I told him that he was very rude. I Do not recommend him for MS patients.

He basically just mentioned my weight the whole time. My first time meeting him and he kept mentioning my weight and how, obese I am. By the way, I am pregnant and I am not huge, I'm average. So he did not leave a good impression.

Bad communication. Didn't fully explain what he was needing me to do to make the visit easier. When asked a question about my issues he made it seem as though it wasn't necessary for him to explain. He didn't greet me upon entering the exam room; and when my visit was over he didn't wait for me to fully clothe myself and pointed to the door for me to exit the exam room, so I had to finish putting my shirt on in the hallway.
