My first time seeing Dr. Rivera, I was impressed with his bedside manner,, he really listened and gave me a fair diagnosis. Better than that, he gave me a follow up plan to solve the problem with a MRI, to finally address the problem. Even though, I left with pain, there is a plan to get me straightened out! Great doctor, I will keep him!!!
