August 27, 2026

Dr. De Cruz has a very calm demeanor, which is always a good quality when speaking with a patient. I feel at ease with her and she was quick to respond to my interest in a particular sleep behavior therapy. The provider she recommended responded very quickly as she stated they would. Although my UCLA insurance does not cover this therapy and the out-of-pocket is cost prohibitive, I’m glad to know such treatment is available. She also addressed another issue I mentioned, not directly sleep related, but her insight helped me to better understand the connection between my sleep apnea and weight issues.
