Patient Reviews
Nov 16, 2022
Other than the rheumatologist who diagnosed my chronic pain, Dr. Peña is the best doctor I have ever seen. He didn’t shame me at all about my high cholesterol, just discussed the relevant information and made sure to mention it could have genetic rather than behavioral causes. He was incredibly validating of the severity of my chronic pain, was excellent at patient education, and was not stigmatizing or uncomfortable about me being transgender and medically transitioning. The office environment was the most comfortable I’ve been in; as a converted house, it was far less stressful than typical medical environments while still being clean and accessible. As an immunocompromised person, I’m incredibly grateful that they maintain precautions to prevent the spread of covid and the flu in late 2022 when many people do not. I got an appointment within a few days of calling as a new patient, and the nurse was very kind and helpful about working with my insurance.
