Dr Garcia has been our family doctor for 10 years. My father lived in Florida for 6 months and 6 months in Ct. Unfortunately my dad got sick in Conn and the hospital said he had days to live. Dr Garcia had us discharged him and bring him back to Florida. By bringing him back here Dr Garcia took care of him and we enjoyed 16 months more of time with my dad. Most Doctors who's patients are over 80 think that its time for them to die. My Dad was almost 96 and he was a blessing, and I thank God for Dr. Garcia's loving care.

Dr. Garcia is one of the most caring Doctors I have ever met. He never rushes through appointments and really takes the time to listen and come up with the best treatment. He is also very conscientous about prescription costs and treatments and goes out of his way to come up with the least expensive and most effective treatment.
