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.

Was the only provider that was able to schedule an appointment within a week following an ER visit that required me to obtain follow-up care. I did not have a PCP at the time. Dr. Ochoa was very attentive to my needs and I have been seeing him ever since. I have already referred two other people to his office.

Horrible doctor, lies to you and takes way to many vacations. If you get sick pray he's in his office. Terrible service too, there's a sign in the lobby that says "no profanity" just shows how many people get frustrated with this office. All this clinic cares about is money, if you want a doctor that cares about your health I would definitely not recommend him.
