Patient Reviews
Sep 08, 2023
I have been a patient of Dr. Pinzon’s for over a decade. He is very knowledgeable and knows what he doing . I get appointments very quickly, and his staff gets me into the surgery center without a long wait. The office is super clean and sanitary. Staff is friendly, and communicates with the patients, and follows up with them several times. He is the only doctor that I will ever trust to work with my back injuries.
