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.

The best doctor I know. He is my primary doctor for more than 15 years. He takes time with each patient and that’s what many people don’t understand. I don’t mind to wait. I am happy with his plan of treatment for many health issues. His referrals are with high quality professionals and hospitals. What else you can ask for?

Extremely long wait period. Very rude receptionist. Doctor is fine with patients waiting for hours. He’s friend skip the line. There’s more people waiting then chairs, most of the time. After one hour of waiting with any perspective at the sight me and my daughter left. I felt humiliated. Avoid this place.

I used to go to Dr.Talavera's office as he was my GP and multiple times I had my health concerns written off as nothing more than in my head only to find out later either on my own or at the hospital that there was in fact something wrong. I stopped going but my mom stayed and now she had a mix up as well. More than anything he is not considerate of his patients and has no interest in your understanding of what's going on - good or bad. Very disappointing.

Dr. Wilfredo Talavera is truly a superb human being and an amazing, top-notch doctor. I stumbled upon him when going to a local walk-in clinic near my job due to chest pains and shortness of breath. I thought I would find a typical doc in a box doctor who couldn't care less about me, and who would just slap a bandaid on me and send me on my merry way. However, I was extremely pleasantly surprised to find a kind, compassionate, caring doctor who took the time to painstakingly go over my medical
