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.

Dr. Iglesias is an excellent surgeon.

Dr Iglesias: Excellent Surgeon I Trust 100%!
I was taken to the emergency room in excruciating pain, and the decision was made to operate on me. I can honestly say that I received exceptional treatment from Dr Iglesias and his team. His highly professional, knowledgeable, and compassionate care restored my health: tiny incisions that are healing perfectly; no pain whatsoever, thus, no medication needed after the procedure. He was fantastic during the pre-op, post-op and follow-up visit. His office staff Karen, Pam, Mercedes, are awesome, too! Dr Iglesias is very personable, talks to the patient, actually checks on you. He answers all the questions, and explains every detail. I am highly satisfied by his care and treatment. For Dr Iglesias, patients come first. He doesn't treat diseases, he treats people. He is an amazing surgeon and a great human being. If I could give him 10 stars, I would! I feel blessed that God put him in my path, and I am immensely grateful to him. Dr Iglesias, Thank You for saving my life and God Bless You!

Get other Surgeons!
Dr. Pombo and Dr. Iglesias never truly appeared to really care, period. They seemed like they were to busy and couldn't be bothered. They kept putting off performing gallbladder surgery on me. Afterwards, Dr. Iglesias met with me and informed me he would do the surgery. When the day came for surgery they had pawned it off to yet another associate doctor whom I had never met. Imagine how I felt as the patient!? Dr. Pombo, Dr. Iglesias, and these actions took the wind out of my sail, so much so, that I decided that I would not let them do it any longer. I will find other doctors that will keep me appropriately informed, that will not pass me around like a piece of meat, and who will care for me the patient..

Dr. Alberto Iglesias performed an emergency removal of my appendix and hernia removal from my bellybutton at Memorial Hospital Miramar. Throughout the procedure, pre- and post-surgery, Dr. Iglesias was polite, professional and pleasant. He thoroughly explained the procedure and answered all my questions. This was my first time having surgery. I was extremely worried and scared and the fact that I was alone at the hospital because of Covid restrictions added to my concerns. Dr. Iglesias immediately recognized I was scared and reassured me everything was going to be okay. He definitely cared about my well-being before and after surgery. The surgery went great. Post-op visit went well. Dr. Iglesias’ staff are very polite and courteous.
