Review for Dr. Kanthawar

I was seeing her as a new patient. She read my previous doctor’s notes before seeing me. New concerns were addressed and follow ups were planned. I am so pleased to have her as my PCP.

Review for Dr. Dionisio

Husband was scheduled for shoulder surgery @11am called me @2pm just now starting the procedure that ridiculous why schedule at 11 then. They should only be allowed to do a certain number of surgery a day. Just all for the money.
