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.

Excellent Doctor
Dr. Lopez is an excellent Doctor! He helped me with a chronic problem that no one else would listen to what I was saying and kept treating me for the same thing. He explains everything to you thoroughly and makes you feel like you are a patient not a number.

I continue to be amazed at how well Dr. Lopez communicates with me. In my opinion, that's not something I've encountered in my many decades of health service. I never feel rushed. He listens to me completely (or seems to, at least) and takes the time to explain everything he is suggesting. I also appreciate that he is continually searching for the right balance of medications and life style changes to address my chronic conditions. I asked him what I thought to be a bit of a crazy question: "what exactly is our goal here. I'm getting older and what's the end game." He answered thoughtfully and his answer was MORE than reasonable. I have a significant amount of confidence in Dr. Lopez. So much so that I urged my son to visit him (which he has done, and has similar feelings.). My only slight issue is that the office and nursing staff seems very efficient, although they could be a bit more friendly. Patients come with anxiety, and your smile and a friendly word can help.

It is hard moving to a new area and having to find all new doctors. We were very fortunate to have found Dr Lopez. We left a very good and highly respected Internist in Celebration, FL that we saw for 16 years. We never thought he could be replaced. But after our first visit with Dr Lopez we knew we had hit the jackpot. Dr Lopez takes the time to get to know you and your history. He’s compassionate and you never feel rushed. He takes the time to explain things and answer all your questions. My husband and I are older and we were born and raised in a small town in WI. Dr Lopez reminds us of the small town doctor who knew everyone and was your neighbor. He is young and very knowledgeable. We feel our health is in good hands with Dr Lopez. God led us in his direction and we couldn’t be more pleased.

Dr. Lopez reviewed my chart prior to visit and requested additional information as needed. He listened to my concerns compassionately. Ordered labs and tests as needed and supplied lab clinics covered by my insurance. He provided referrals and list of specialists for health problems out of his specialty. Highly recommend Dr. Lopez.

I like to get deep into knowing a patient's medical issues and then get an overall good history. It creates a good picture before making a diagnosis.
