Patient Reviews

Jan 13, 2023

My first appointment was for a general physical and to discuss a recent gallbladder attack I had in Costa Rica. After reviewing the ultrasound and my doctor's report from Costa Rica, Dr. Velazquez agreed that the gallbladder needed to be removed. Knowing that surgery would be in my near future (I was returning to Costa Rica in 30 days) he scheduled all of the necessary bloodwork, EKG, and x-rays and made the recommendation for a surgeon who was able to complete gallbladder removal surgery and get me back on my feet in time to complete my travel plans and return to Costa Rica as scheduled. He is very knowledgeable and takes the time to explain everything in detail.
