Dr. Tellez takes his time to hear all your concerns. He is good at explaining and will make an effort to get to know the patient. He is very professional and is really gentle and kind at handling the baby. I am so thankful for the care he has given my daughter and would not want any other Doctor for her.

Doctor TELLEZ is a wonder person and a pretty amazing Doctor. I started taking my daughter when she was 3 months and since just been so blessed to have him. He answers all questions. The girls in the Office are all very helpful. I love that there is no wait, and we are usually in and out with in hr ... even if we have to take labs... the doctor dose not leave the room till he makes sure you understand everything and all your questions have been answered. Id recommend him to any of my friends and family any day :)
