Dr. David Ballestas, MD

I've worked my tale off since I was 18 to finally afford insurance and to FINALLY be able to see a dr. My family's health history is very poor and has always been a concern of mine, and due to some cruel twist of fate I ended up here in front this man. He was, condescending, rude, a little racist with referring to me as "you people" when he thought I was Mexican, talked over me constantly, fat shamed me, dismissed everything I said, and refused to listen even to his nurse when she tried to interject when she saw how upset he was making me. He made off the wall claims from the moment he walked into the room before even looking at me. I am not an individual with self esteem issues or lack of confidence, yet this man managed to frustrate me to tears; he is THAT degrading and disrespectful. I regret ever meeting this man. I regret not just waiting the extra time to see the doctor I had originally planned on seeing. I can only imagine how much hurt this man has done to others. I feel sorry… for anyone who NEEDS more affordable health Care, has no other options, and gets stuck paying him a visit.

Excellent doctor, great bedside manor very caring. Always found his entire staff very caring and professional. Recommend him and his staff highly.

Great staff, Did not wait that long. Listen to me and explained everything. I will continue to go to him.

I can't believe he is still working and having patients, he was unprofessional, rude and not knowledgeable, he told me I must take picture of my medication if I don't know the dosage so next time he doesn't have to ask, he asked irrelevant questions and was upset all the time during the appointment. I will never go there again.

The doctor and the staff are not well-educated about the new health care laws. Both my husband and I made appointments for well visits/preventative care. They incorrectly coded both of our office visits, blood work, my husband's chest x-ray and my bone density scan as diagnostic, instead of preventative. This means we received bills incorrectly for copays for all of these services.

Dr."B" and his staff are very wonderful, caring individuals. I have always been treated wonderfully, and I recommend him to all of my friends and family.

Dr. B. Is a to the point general doctor. He will listen to you and often do as you ask for your care. He will also often do something you did not anticipate which will turn out to be just what you needed to fix your problem.
