"The worst clinic in the city, don't miss the opportunity to be treated here, both in emergencies and in appointments are outrageous, lack of empathy and professionalism towards patients."

Sandra Montes

"The patient arrives 10 minutes late and misses their appointment, but when you have an appointment at 8:30 and you're seen at 9:50 because "the doctor is running late," nothing happens; zero respect for the patient's time."

"For your mental health, NEVER come here. You'll leave feeling worse. If you're not dying, don't come. And if you are dying, you're better off looking somewhere else. I wasted a day of my life in the ER waiting to be admitted because the receptionist didn't know how to enter information into the system and the rest of the staff didn't care about your time."

"Busy place. Have to admit is organized and precise on appointments. Is an old building, but is kept clean as can be and is efficient, have all specialists and have served well for years. God bless its nuns ( nuns owned and operated )"
