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.

My Surgeon
I am post bariatric surgery performed by Dr. Rodolfo Oviedo. Before my surgery Dr. Oviedo shared a booklet of bariatric information that was extremely helpful in making my decision. But the best part of my visits is the caring attitude, concern for my health, attentive response for my concerns and the kindness he showed me. His office personnel are professional and kind. My overall expeience has been exceptional. Whenever I have questions he replies almost immediately or soon as he is available. Dr. Oviedo has never failed to return a call and answer any question I might have. I would highly recommend Dr. Oviedo for any of your surgical needs. Thanks to Dr. Oviedo I am losing weight, feeling better than ever and most of all I am happy.

My experience with Dr. Oviedo overall was excellent. On my very first visit the staff and doctor were very friendly, helpful and made me very comfortable. I am so grateful to meet a staff and doctor that's concern about their patients. Again, I am very, very very pleased with Dr. Oviedo and his staff. We need more medical people like them.

There was no doubt in my mind that Dr.Oviedo was going to be the one performing my surgery after I spoke to him the very first time. He was not only knowledgeable but sensitive to my concerns and number of questions. He went above and beyond to help me with the high level of anxiety that I had. Not only did he spent so much time explaining everything but he was patient enough to educate my husband and parents as well. We all have the highest resptect of him as a professional and as a human being

As a patient of Dr. Oviedo, I couldn't have found a better surgeon or Dr. He has been on of the best I have ever been too. I would recommend anyone that needs surgery to him. He will be dearly missed as he continues his training in South Florida. I would like to wish him all the best in the future.

Doctor Oviedo explained to me what I needed as well as took the time to listen to my questions and concerns. After hearing what I had been through Doctor Oviedo assured me that if I allowed him to perform my next surgery that he would do everything in his power to make this experience a better one. My Wife and I were impressed with his care and compassion and the way that he was able to sooth my anxiety. I am completely healed and forever grateful.

Dr. Oviedo was assigned through ER admission. He was confident &knowledgeable. His bedside manner - he actually has one. He is pleasant, informative, respectful, and was not threatened by my doctorate degree in nursing and 45 years clinical experience. We didn't agree on approach but he accepted my opinion and respected my care wishes. He provided top notch care. This is the main reason I will be using him for my surgery this month. I haven't seen his office yet so ratings are average.
