Dr. Valent is the best doctor I've ever had. He spends a lot of time, listens and always returns my calls. He has been my doctor for over six years. I think he's terrific!

Dr. Valent stands apart from other area doctors. I was shocked when he actually personally called me to follow up on a visit. He is never rushed and his focus is entirely on you during the appointment. I have never experienced such personal care from a physician.

Dr. Valent is very thorough in his examination and questioning of the patient.He not only listens, he responds with helpful suggestions or solutions. His follow through is always most complete. He was our biggest Negative in making our decision to leave Ft. Lauderdale. We left behind a great doctor who was even willing to help us after our move.

Dr. Valent has always been very thorough in reviewing his prior notes and prompting me to remember important concerns by asking me questions. I find him to be unrushed, good bed-side manner, and so far, able to resolve my issues with proper diagnosis and treatment. His office seems to be well organized and I haven't experienced any unreasonable wait time.

I love Dr. Valent. I've been seeing him for a couple years now, and so have a few of my co-workers. I've gone in for issues that aren't a big deal, and he'll still spend a good 15-20min with me. He pays me so much attention and never tries to rush me. I think these traits are extremely important in a good Doctor, and are sometimes hard to find these days. I have nothing but good things to say about Dr. Valent!

YOU NEED NOT LOOK ANY FURTHER FOR A DOCTOR! I HAVE BEEN A PATIENT OF DR. VALENT FOR OVER 10 YEARS. IT IS HARD TO FIND A GREAT DOCTOR THAT TRULY CARES ABOUT THEIR PATIENTS LIKE DR. VALENT CARES ABOUT HIS! YOU ARE NOT JUST ANOTHER NUMBER IN HIS OFFICE. HE TAKES HIS TIME, VERY THOROUGH, ASKS DETAILED QUESTIONS AND VERY INFORMATIVE. I HAVE RECOMMENDED DR. VALENT TOO MANY PEOPLE AND THEY HAVE ALL AGREED THAT DR. VALENT IS TERRIFIC.

What a great Doctor and practice. We were recommended by another Doctor who said that he was the best internist in the area and he was right. Knowledgeable, caring, precise, great diagnostician, and follows up on a Saturday night!
