Common complaints

  • Billing and insurance processing issues
  • Difficulties with appointment scheduling and rescheduling (including long wait times)
  • Patient concerns about exclusively seeing a Physician Assistant (PA) rather than the primary doctor

"Dr. Ortiz and staff are very professional. Nurses and assistants treat patients with care. I’m also happy with the fact that waiting is never long. I’m usually in and out within less than an hour."

— Birdeye review

"The worst medical practice I've ever been to. Completely incompetent staff. The woman in billing could not figure out how to properly bill my insurance..."

— Yelp review

"Don't expect to see Dr. Ortiz after the first visit unless you have severe thyroid issues. If you only want to see a PA then this is the place for you."
