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.

Excellence in his profession
Initially met Dr Garcia while hospitalized at Hollywood memorial. Found him to be extremely confident and knowledgeable and caring.While numerous healthcare providers misdiagnosed my condition (pain and suffering), he alone diagnosed and treated my condition with professionalism and compassion.Several follow up visits to his office have all been positive and productive.The office is very professionally managed with friendly and helpful staff...always a positive environment.A doctors visit I always look forward to even having a two and a half hour one way drive!

I have been seeing Dr. Garcia for years. Well, now he is no longer seeing patients and his PA is charging for whatever services she she wants like extended visits for a five minute visit. When I called to talk to the billing manager, she is the most rude person I have ever spoken to. She literately accused me of being unable to understand plain English. BS! I have the right to question any charge they can't justify. I will never go back and won't recommend this practice to anyone!!!

Dr Garcia can only see patients when they are well. When there is an emergency and you are flared up, you cannot get an appointment. I have switched my elderly mother to another rheumatologist in the area after her symptoms were so bad and we were frustrated. Dr Garcia was not even checking her RA factor despite the fact that she had changed medicines due to cancer treatment. Dr Garcia is not worth your time seeing. Please seek care elsewhere.

Dr. Garcia is one of the most excellent Rheumatologists that I've had the pleasure of having an appointment with. Takes very good care of all of his patients, and is very kind-hearted. I will be coming again and recommend to anyone to go see this doctor.

This office is horrible. Not only do you wait forever to be seen by the doctor for a total of 5 minutes, patient customer service at this clinic is very poor. They don't feel bad about rescheduling your appointments regardless of how much of an inconvenience it is on your personal life. With the exception of a few people, no one seems to care about the patients who come through this office. If you don't mind being overlooked and inconvenienced, come to this clinic.
