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. Guzman is very good explaining my conditions

Short medical relationship
I moved to Riverside in mid 2023. I only met with Dr. Guzman a couple of times but I was perfectly comfortable with him as a personal physician. The only reason that he is not still my Dr. is that I moved to Michigan in Sept. 2024.

Amazing doctor!!
Dr. Guzman is an outstanding doctor. He is very experienced, kind, patient, has a great personality and very intelligent. He always explains any medical conditions in terms that are relatable for me to better understand. He is an excellent listener. He is very dedicated to his patients. He always looks out what’s in my best interest. I never wait over 10 minutes in the waiting room. His office is always neat and clean. The office staff is outstanding. I couldn’t ask for a better doctor!!

Dr. Guzman is the best physician. He explains everything clearly and is very kind and compassionate. He takes his time with you, and always makes sure you are getting the best care and have a good understanding. His staff is always kind and helpful.

Dr. Guzman went above and beyond to care for my husband. My husband was his first very sick covid patient. Dr. Guzman would call him everyday to see how he was doing even on weekends and did his best to treat my husband. He and his staff very caring. I highly recommend dr. Guzman and his staff.

My family has been going to Dr. Guzman for over 10 years. He's a great doctor that explains everything and let's you ask questions. We never feel like he's rushing us. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable.

He is just a guy with a medical degree making a living, that's all he is. He has no passion for his job or for people. If you need a doctor please go somewhere else.

I would highly recommend this Doctor. He is patient friendly and has outstanding skills in diagnosis. I trust him with my life. He cares and does what is necessary to make you a well person with medicine and educates patients on their diagnosis to help the patient understand their responsibility to their own health and needs. Outstanding Doctor!

Dr. Guzman and his staff are terrible. It took an hour to get in the office and once I did he completely ignored all of the things I told him were ailing me. When I told him about my last primary care physicians recommendations, he condescendingly told me that HE was the doctor and I should know my place as a patient. A medical student was present the whole time and suggested that I pray with him because God is light. This is unacceptable and his practice is a joke
