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.

Great Surgeon!
Dr. Lopez is awesome! I had a horrible galblader atack and a very inflamed galblader full of stones and he took me to surgery and cured me! He is very compasionate and truly cared about me and my family and explained everything very well and I feel so good now. He has done over 2,000 of this galbalder surgeries over the last 30 years! All the hospital staff told us that he is wonderful! Please never leave our town Dr. Lopez!!!

Dr. Lopez went out of his way for our 14 year old daughter. He worked her in on Wednesday and had her in surgery by Friday. Her previous doctor had canceled surgery twice, and she was in a lot of pain(a 2 week flare-up). We highly recommend Dr. Lopez; good bedside manner-very professional and caring.

I had an intimidating experience with Dr. Lopez. He is one doctor that is not compassionate with his patients and I would not recommend him. I am one of his patients at Zia Medical. Dr. Lopez did my appendectomy and it is frustrating that he does not empathize with his patients situations after surgery. Dr. Lopez should understand that the reason why he is a doctor is because of his patients. Therefore, he needs to be caring, compassionate and know how to empathize with his patients.
