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.

He take time to explain whatever your problem might be. I've been a patient of his for over 15 years and he is always the same kind spirited person I met back then. I have recommended his service to many of my friends and family and they all speak highly of him. I trust his judgement don't feel like he hold anything back.

I have been seeing Dr. Diaz for my primary care for 7 years. He has always taken the time to explain what is going on, what the test results mean, and guides me as to what needs to happen in the next year, healthy eating habits, more activity/exercise, lowering cholesterol levels, etc. When I need to see him, Liza (his wonderful Nurse) always gets me in either the same day or the next day. He really cares and shows concern and makes me a priority when I am there. I highly recommend Dr. Diaz and Liza. . .he's a great doctor who actually cares for his patients. I'm very fortunate to have him as my doctor.

Dr. Diaz has been my primary physician since 2005. He has always been attentive and caring and has made recommendations that has aided me. I would never consider another physician for my health care. His office staff has always been friendly and professional and the site is always clean and well kept. If you are looking for an internal medicine physician, I can make no higher recommendation that Dr. Diaz.

My family and I have been seeing Dr Diaz for years. Office staff always courteous, lab on site is nice (technician drawing blood does such a good job), Dr Diaz and his assistant are both polite and professional. Never feel rushed, and wait time is not bad at all, if there is one. Patient portal questions also answered timely.

Dr.. Diaz does not answer questions and concerns, his manner is condescending and patronizing, and he is unwilling to listen closely. He makes assumptions that bear not resemblance to the actual situation. I do not recommend Dr. Diaz if you want to a have a say in your own health care.

My husband and I found Dr. Diaz almost a decade ago by a recommendation from Jerry's radiologist after having seen at least 3 or 4 other physicians with whom we were just not comfortable. We both find him to be highly competent, empathetic, and very likable. Most importantly, we have complete faith in his medical judgement.
