Dr. Orlando is very thorough but he should schedule a little lighter sometimes he runs a little late with his appointments. His office staff could be a little more cordial.

Every office visit to Dr Orlando has been a comforting experience. Although some complain the wait is too long, It is well worth it. He spends all the time needed and then some with every patient. Never has he cut a visit short but gives every patient whatever time it takes to make all concerns well understood. He goes above and beyond to explain all health concerns while having a true caring approach to any other concerns. When a procedure is needed it is met with the same warm caring attention.This removes any anxiety and fear. The outcome has been reassuring that your care is his utmost concern. Do not hesitate to wait how ever long it takes to experience Dr Orlando's care. He is one of a kind.
