"Physicians are absolutely wonderful. They make you feel like family. They do not rush you out. The office staff- they need some work. I call leave message they say they will get back never get back. So I show up at office and get a bit of a run around. Told the nurse will call you back. Never called back show up again next day then I get in to see Physician. While waiting another patient comes in little upset because no one called her back. So she did what I did showed up in person to get answers. This is unacceptable. I continue to go here for the fabulous physicians/practitioners."

I would totally recommend my family and friends to her. I had my treatment in 2017."
"Dr Ramirez saved my wife's life 13 plus years ago. My wife is an RN and selects her doctors well. Some of the inconveniences are in the nature of many if not most clinics. Ever worked at a clinic? More importantly, being in the hands of a Good doctor with a professional team is what counts. Especially when it's a matter of life and death. She is also my GI doctor and I fully trust her and her team. If you are looking for a fast drive-through GI clinic, keep going (although they do their best). If you are looking for a good doctor who is thorough, professional, knowledgeable and caring... Our family highly recommends Dr Belinda S. Ramirez, MD."

Their interest in you as a patient is sincere. You sense it. They care!"
"What a GREAT doctor! He is one of the few that don't treat you like hearded cattle and on to the next patient. He actually takes the time to sit down and explain what's going on and what you need to know. No p.a. here, so the wait time is worth it.His staff is also very very nice. They stayed after hours to make sure that I was all set up with testing and scheduling to get what I needed done BRAVO TO THESE FOLKS!"
