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.

Avoid Dr. Cintron!
I felt like an object on an assembly line when I had an appointment with her. It was obvious to me that she had already decided what my problem was before she heard my symptoms. As a result she misdiagnosed me and missed an obvious fracture. She also appears to lack compassion.

Bad Doctor
She told me there was nothing wrong with my neck. Came in with so much pain I could hardly move. Was crying it was so bad. Went to family doctor who looked at my ex-rays & told me I had 2 herniated disks in my neck. SHE SENT ME AWAY WITH TWO HERNIATED DISKS IN MY NECK & SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH ME. She is a terrible doctor & wouldn't recommend her to ANYONE!

Initial visit, received a through agility exam
My initial agility exam provided diagnosis to my situation. I'm grateful for Dr. Cintron's consultation on an exercise plan and directions for pain maintenance avoiding injections to remedy my shoulder issue, doing the right physical exercise and physical therapy for my injury in the beginning avoids any further injury setbacks that probably would have occurred if I didn't have this consultation, well worth the 90 mile each way trip.

Visit
I visited with Dr. Cintron today in regards to a shoulder issue. She listened to the problems as I described them, discussed the issues, diagnosed and we agreed on an action plan. Dr. Cintron is easy to speak with, listens well and explains her diagnosis so it is easy to understand. Job well done! Thank You
