Great transition (06/12/2018)
I had a great experience with Dr. Almonza and his staff. Although I never actually met Dr. Almonza, my procedure had no complications and I felt comfortable my entire visit.

Beautiful facility that needed help.... (06/08/2018)
Surgery went fine. Nurses were delightful. Facility has potential but even the nurses agreed that I was on the worst mattress possible. I had to raid a pillow from another (empty) patient room. That is also how I obtained a wooden straight back chair, even though empty rooms had upholstered chairs. ... * read more.
