I have been a pt. of Dr. Contreras for over 7 years. This amazing MD and human being has changed my life. I used to faint, had many uncertainties, a lot of nervousness, shortness of breath and I used to feel like I was going to die. I used to be in the Emergency Room probably in a week 3 to 4 times. Since Dr. Contreras DX and treatment Plan, my life changed. I am able to take public transportation, go to places, and enjoyed life to the fullest. Also, wanted to include that before I found Dr. Contreras I went through 4 different Psychiatrists. I cannot explain with words how thankful I am. Thank you Dr. Contreras

I like how I was able to schedule an appointment iso quickly. Dr. Contreras' staff is so courteous and helpful. The office is beautiful on the outside and in. The Dr. took her time to evaluate me and was able to diagnose me within 1 hour. She checked my blood pressure, weight, height, took blood for tests, and even measured around my waist. This is a godsend because there are so many people that just do not care. Dr. Contreras cares, and it showed in how she runs her office and the way she treats her patients.

Dr. Contreras is an excellent doctor. She is very kind, caring and warm hearted. She is very compassionate and shows genuine concern. She listens and always has positive feedback. The office is very relaxing and the staff is very mannerable and friendly. On a scale of one to ten, Dr. Contreras gets TEN. I love this doctor.
