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.

Outstanding service by Hector Collantes
What a wonderful clinician he is. He takes his time in every visit. His diagnoses have been right on the money. I have been a patient of his for over 5 years and I wouldn't change him for any other clinician. His demeanor and caring personality are qualities that seldom you find in other doctors. So, I strongly recommend this doctor to anyone who is not happy about their medical providers.

Does not diagnose, Just Prescribes pills
This doctor NEVER tries to diagnose your issue but just gives you medicine to soothe the issue and sends you to another doctor to see. He can only run urine tests, but no blood work. He doesn't exam my full body when I say I have an issue and generally the procedure at every other doctor I've been to is to get into a robe to look at it. He doesn't even look at your skin. He just makes an assumption based on what you tell him and then prescribes you something to soothe the issue, but doesn't care to figure it out. Medication to reduce the symptoms doesn't resolve the real reason and stop it from coming back or stop it completely so my issue still remains and I'm afraid I am stuck with this until I can find another doctor which isn't something I am allowed to do under my health plan. The resolution seems up to me to ask him what else can we do or can we do this or that and he will send you to other labs/specialists to determine it. He didn't seem to care.

This is my go to clinic for everything. They cured me of bronchial asthma where I no longer need daily inhalers and they saved my brother's life when he had undiagnosed thyroid condition that was killing him. I bring my children here too, there is no excessive waits or costs and every diagnosis has been 100% accurate!! Love this clinic....

Hector is amazing doctor! I had annoying pain in my right mid back area, and Hector said it was my stomach that was inflamed and radiating to my back! I couldn’t believe till I got the medicine and the pain went away! Thank you Dr. Collantes. My family loves you.
