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.

I cannot stress how much I enjoy my appointments with Dr. Esguerra. She listens to my concerns, symptoms and I always feel when I leave that we are on the right path.

Part time doctor
For the past four years Dr. Esguerra has continuously bumped our appointments. Even though they are non critical wellness visits, it is annoying and consistent. This past year we have been bumped 3 consecutive times resulting in a 10 month delay. I'm fairly certain that she is only working part time. Get a doctor that will be there for you when you need them.

Dependable, considerate, attentive, intelligent, thorough, kind and humorous, these are just a few of the qualities that you will find in Dr. Esguerra. I have seen many many physicians in my life and she is by far, one of the best. She listened to everything I had concerns about and asked me to go into detail about family history, previous conditions and would explain the nuances of why she reached certain diagnoses. She is very smart and has very caring bedside manner. Highly Recommend!

I found Dr. Esguerra to be condescending (I’m not stupid, thank you!), in need of a good long lesson in “bed-side manners”. She seems short-tempered and god forbid, should you ask a question or require clarification... back comes a condescending reply. I must assume any 5 star reviews come from family/personal friends, or they are clueless when it comes to reading arrogant people. Do yourself a favor, stick with this office, especially if the location is convenient, but choose a different MD.
