Patient Reviews
Jun 28, 2019
I was referred to Dr. Kara Villareal and couldn't have been more satisfied. I was originally referred for gallbladder issues but Dr. Villareal didn't immediately jump into surgery; she referred me to a GI specialist and we found another issue causing my symptoms. Dr. Villareal is so knowledgeable but makes you feel like you are THE most important patient when she talks to you. She explained everything very clearly and honestly. She makes your issue understandable and calms you with her knowledge. She is friendly and caring and has a great sense of humor. I also dealt a little with Dr. McClary and she appears to have the same qualities. I highly recommend Dr. Villareal and this practice to anyone who needs surgery.
