"I dealt with Travis Holloway to have my d gallbladder removed. I had other issues he was concerned with. He ordered a lot of tests including lab work. The day of surgery even more blood work. His demeanor was very pleasant and he asked a lot of questions. Thoroughly pleased with entire process."

"I like everything. From the time I walk in the door to the time I leave is a very pleasant experience. Dr Spencer’s is sensitive and very caring. She looks into everything we talk about. She’s an awesome doctor,"
"Soon after I arrived, the staff quickly got me ready for my appointment. Not in a rushed manner but in an efficient one. The wait was reasonable to try he the PA for my consultation. I was well informed of my procedure’s process and I had my next appointment in less than two weeks."
"I was very impressed with my PA Patricia Moore. She had me put my daughter on the phone so she could give her details on my visit. I thought that was wonderful since I usually forget what I am told. The office workers are all very nice.❤️"
"While I've only met Dr.Otero briefly prior to a procedure, I've had a few office visits with Ms. Reygoza. While I would rather not be going to the doctor in the first place, she makes every visit as informative, pleasant, efficient, and quick as possible. I appreciate her genuine concern and patience when answering my questions to put me at ease, because most likely I'm in the office for something unpleasant or worrisome. At my most recent office appointment she took a few extra moments to offer some words of wisdom that she really didn't have to take the time to do and I don't think she knows how much I appreciate her concern."
"I am always treated professionally especially when running late with appointments. PA Moore is very knowledgeable and engages in conversation even when she is behind in appointments. I enjoy visits with her because she is real, truthful and doesn’t just tell me what I want to hear. Thanks"
"Staff, nurses are friendly and take the time with the patient. I have been a patient of Dr. Richard Otero and PA Ana Raygoza for years, both have treated me with respect and understanding. For that they both have my respect and appreciation!"
"The entire clinic staff, especially the caregivers are exceptional. They are very knowledgeable and are always willing to answer any patient questions."
"This was my 4th or 5th visit and my first time to see the Doctor’s Assistant. She was very nice and very knowledgeable about this unfortunate subject to the problem I was having. I left the office feeling a lot better."

"The nurses were the best .And the tech that did my Iv had such a good hand that I didn't even feel it when the needle went in.they all listen to you. There just so kind hearted. And the Dr that did the procedure was so kind also he made me feel so relaxed. The only thing I missed was the music they used to put on back 10 years ago.I almost forgot the dr that put me to sleep she was so sweet I thank you so very much."
"I put complete trust in Dr Johnson. I went in and he and the staff were professional and kind he was there before the procedure started and after to explain his findings. I recommend him and the entire staff"
"Karen Spencer and Dr Geurra have always been a caring people when it comes to healthcare always been available to answer my questions and relieve me of any confusion. Other doctors may say they care when it comes down to you asking questions of your health and taking time to call you back Karen is a step above all other making sure she replies to all your questions and concerns."
"Exceptional experience and follow-up care. Kinda sad I've aged out of the colonoscopy! Thanks Dr. Otero, Dr. Raygoza and the always caring and professional staff. Thank you and God bless you all."
"I had a colonoscopy and endoscopy performed by Dr. Richard Otero in the past month. It was an incredibly positive experience from start to finish after arriving at the procedure center. Everything was handled extremely efficiently, professionally and in such a kind and caring manner. I have nothing but praise for each healthcare worker that I encountered. May I add that Dr. Richard Otero is one of the kindest and most compassionate doctors I have encountered in my 74 years of life!!! I highly recommend him as an excellent doctor, plus he is a wonderfully caring individual. You are not just a “number” to Dr. Otero. He has been my gastroenterologist for the past 20 years. He has consistently provided excellent medical care while caring about me as a patient/person. I highly recommend Dr. Otero and his associates with your gastroenterology needs. You will not be disappointed!!!! Judith M. Van Natter"
"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."
