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.

Good Service
I have been seeing Dr. Chavira for over four years for a heart murmur that I’ve had since birth which lead to Mitral valve prolapse, blood pressure irregularities and several other issues. Now that I’m getting close to 70 I feel better than ever. I have no problems with him. He’s done a great job. He keeps all of my appointments. I see him quarterly and I wouldn’t want to change for anyone. As with any medical issue, the patient should do what the doctors and staff advise, it’s definitely a team effort.

Dr. Chavira is an excellent cardiologist as I have had a few. He takes time to explain things to me in regular language so that I can understand. He is always very nice and I would recommend him to everybody. His office staff I always polite and courteous when I am there and also on the phone. I am leaving to move to Texas and I will miss having Dr Chavira as my cardiologist. I wish him the best. Timberly Hoffschneider

chronically late, even if you get the first appointment of the day. always end up sitting there for 30-45 minutes for my appointments. a couple of times, the doctors not even in the building and i end up walking out. if they want to charge $50 for a no-show patient then i should be able to get a $50 bill when they waste my time.
