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 have been seeing Dr. Padilla for about 5 years. I was found to have a pre-cancerous lesion on the cervix. Fortunately, it was benign, but I continue with follow-up appointments every 6 months to make certain the is no cancer. Dr. Padilla is very compassionate and understanding. If he is running behind schedule, he always lets me know. Not one of his staff, but he makes the appearance in the exam room. He takes adequate time with me to listen to any concerns. If I could, I would designate him as my primary physician.

Best surgeon I have had
Dr. Padilla Paz has been very professional in every aspect of my treatment. From my experience I believe that he is a very skilled surgeon. He was good at listening to my needs and finding and removing endometriosis. Going into surgery he knew that I would not accept blood in case something were to go wrong. He communicated with me and had other things in line in case of an emergency.

So caring
I had my first four month follow-up after surgery. Dr Padilla was so kind and concerned about my questions and concerns. He is the most caring doctor I have ever seen. This has been the scariest thing I've ever had to deal with and Dr Padilla always makes sure to explain eveything in a way I understand all aspects. I'm so glad I was referred to him and would recommend him to anyone.

Kind and informative
I came to know Dr. Padilla after a diagnosis of endometrial cancer. I can honestly say the whole experience was much less stressful and scary having him as my doctor. Very patient, kind and caring. Would highly recommend him to friends or family members or anyone needed help or guidance in this area.

Best of the best!
Dr. Padilla-Paz saved my life. He cares about his patients very much. He is wise and is very skilled. He makes you feel like you are his only patent even though he probably saves several lives a month if not more. I was lucky he was recommended to me because I did not know where to turn. If you are looking for a gyn-oncologist that can handle really complicated situations look no further. You will not be disappointed with Dr. Padilla-Paz. A great guy, the best of the best!

Wonderful,amazing, very knowledgeable, trustworthy
I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in in 2019. My husband is an OBGYN in Las Cruces. He always referred his patients to Dr. Padilla-Paz. He saw me the next day after getting results from a CAT scan. I immediately felt comfortable, safe. I trusted him immediately. The best bedside manners. He was very easy to engage with. I chose to come to Albuquerque, every 3 weeks, based on all of the above. It was the best decision I ever made. This is my third time of my cancer returning. He has gotten me in remission the last 2 times. My tumor markers are going down so this chemo seems to be working as well. I recommend him highly. The staff in the chemo suite here is wonderful. They are very attentive, kind, and very knowledgeable. The front desk staff are very professional and helpful.
