There were concerns during my appointment. Javier was genuine when communicating. He ordered lab work & responded quickly. He provide several helpful solutions that were sustainable. He has always made me feel comfortable, & like I'm cared for & not just a name on his calendar.

I've been a patient for 6m under medical weight loss and made no improvement. I decided I wanted to seek surgical info and Javier was very supportive and helpful in explaining the process and overall expectations.
