Dr Uquillas is very attentive and listens to my concerns and has offered best practice for my situation. Despite the Pasadena office closing which was much closer to me. I will continue to travel to the Los Angeles location because of the excellent treatment I have received from Dr Uquillas.

I saw a nurse, Dr Uquillas and a cast technician (Alphonse) who all were great. I especially benefited from the cast tech since he helped me "dial in" my cast to better fit my left leg!

Dr Uquillas is wonderful with his patience. I'm always impressed with how much he listens to concerns, patiently answers my many questions, accepts my significant others points of views, and explains the clinical significance of my treatment plan at every appointment. I appreciate how transparent he is about his clinical experience and success rates in detail. He deserves to be rewarded and his patient care should be a model for Kerlan-Jobe Jobe.
