My primary care doctor referred me to Dr. Balderrama because I had a growth on the back of my hand. I had a total of three visits to his office: the initial visit, the removal of the growth, and the follow-up where stitches were removed. I dealt with the doctor and several staff members while there. They were all pleasant, attentive, and gave excellent care. I would not hesitate to use this doctor again if I needed his services or to recommend him to family and friends.

worst experience, Have to fiend a surgeon that can fix the mess he made out of my breast, too high and under my arm. He treated me disrespectful, looses his temper, raises his voice. By his own words he could not give the results we agreed before surgery.

Dr B did hand surgery on me. I could overlook his rude, impatient, uncaring manner if he was good at his work. But he is NOT...my hand is messed up. He was upset and yelled at me when my hand was not responding well - due to his staff putting on my support cast improperly. His staff is equally rude and uncaring. Would not recommend!

Do not take a child to see this doctor. Rude and impatient. Office staff unprofessional and just plain rude. Make the drive to Las Vegas or Phoenix for a PROFESSIONAL plastic surgeon.

The worst doctor's office experience I have ever had! He literally spent 30 sec with me checking my hand. I had a few questions to ask him, but he was walking out of the office on me! He acts like a "Mr. Know It All" and treated me like I was a nobody.

Had a Dequervains release done by another doctor who referred me to this guy. Worst doctor I have ever seen! Told me there was nothing he could do before he even looked at my hand. Would not recommend him to my worst ememy.
