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.

If only there were more doctors were like him
Easy to talk to, and I felt relaxed, even though it was first visit. He communicated in a way that was easy to understand. The options were presented, and I felt like a decision was made that we both felt comfortable with. Office staff were easy to work with as well. Thank you all.

Dr Briseno is a very good Dr. I like him.
I had to have emergency in 2018. While I was in the hospital I started wheezing having a hard time breathing. The hospital called in Dr. Briseno to exam me . He found out I had A-Fib (Arterial Fibulation) which is half of my heart was beating slower than normal. With his excellent care , I have done so much better, About once a year I go for tests to make sure everything is ok. I would never known that I had any kind of problem with my heart up to that point. Thank You, Dr Briseno.

I am the kind of person who likes to be well informed regarding significant health issues. Dr. Briseno explained various aspects of my condition quite well, much better than previous cardiologists I've seen. I'm sure I over ran my scheduled time but very much appreciate Dr. Briseno's knowledge and his patience.

Dr. Breseno did a great job of going through my appointment step by step and I understood everything that we discussed! One complaint is that the appointment over the phone took a few times before we got connected, but other than that it was good!
