    Dr. Carlos is a rockstar. Wish all doctors were like him. Including (trying) not wasting my time, using video visit when possible, giving me time to ask any questions I have, listening to questions and answering them, not scaring me.

    Dr. Carlos is the model of what a Doctor should be. Dr. Carlos has always maintained and monitored my treatment, I have no doubt that, even though he must be busy, Dr. Carlos has helped me by caring for me as a person, not just a body part. He's monitored my treatment and explained every step and option I needed to know. He has kept me from worry and for that he is a jewel.
