I came in for a routine follow-up to my annual physical exam last February. Dr. Rodriguez was very familiar with my medical history and recent lab work. We discussed my prescriptions and ongoing treatments with specialists. She was, as always, pleasant and friendly, clearly explained my current medical situation and made me feel comfortable with the plan we have in place for optimizing my overall health. The staff at the front desk were friendly and efficient, the nurse who took my vitals was also friendly and helpful.
