Patient Reviews
Jul 21, 2021
I have seen Dr. Avila a couple of times and had a procedure done by her. she is personable, and knowledgeable and prescribed a medication that is/was very helpful. The problem is with her office in CL, both times I waited nearly 1 hour past my appointment time. I have called her MA Roxanne, spoke to her and left messages over 1 month ago and have not received a call back re an RX prior approval.
