Waiting too long in the patient room

05/02/2025

I have sent friends to him who had the same positive experience.

04/29/2025

The only issue we had is the apparent Plumbing problem in the building. It was extremely jarring while having an injection in my knees. The sound is so loud and startling. It is a serious problem that should be addressed.

Great experience.

Dr. Gonzalez is a great provider but his staff is very slow with communication and ordering medication.

02/05/2025

Dr Gonzalez was great. Very personal and very knowledgeable in the field. His staff was less than stellar

02/04/2025

Just a great doctor and appears to be a very good person.

02/03/2025

Very experienced and through

02/03/2025

Needed xrays on my knee. The radiologists could explain things a little bit better. I thought that if I was elderly, hard of hearing, nervous, that I would not understood what she was telling me to do. Should always assume the patient has never had an xray before and doesn't understand the process.

01/28/2025

Very positive feedback already shared.

01/27/2025

I am very happy with Dr Gonzalez' care

01/23/2025

Dr Gonzalez demonstrates concern and care for his patients! Most Doctors are behind schedule and one senses that they and the patients are feeling being rushed to see patients

01/22/2025

It was and always is a positive experience with this provider.

01/22/2025

Dr Gonzalez worked towards a resolution and took several xrays to rule out possible cause and to prepare for next steps. Its refreshing to get such great treatment

01/21/2025

Listened well to what I was experiencing and provided the proper resolution.

01/20/2025

Very good Dr. through snd caring

I am very pleased with Dr. Gonzalez and the care he gave me.

12/27/2024

Dr. Gonzalez was fantastic

12/23/2024

Very impressed with my first visit

12/20/2024

A good experience

12/13/2024

Great experience.

12/13/2024

Friendly caring knowledgeable above and beyond

12/10/2024

Excellent!

12/10/2024

I don't think they were listening to me when I stated I was in pain and also for not expediting my getting an MRI

12/05/2024

He actually was closer to figuring out what my shoulder problem is.

12/04/2024

The whole atmosphere was a joy to experience.

11/26/2024

I had a great experience. When going to doctor's offices, it is really about the support staff. I felt that the support staff here was great!

11/19/2024

The entire staff was courteous, friendly, and helpful throughout the entire appointment

11/18/2024

Usually doctors are very professional and nice except this time . I think he's little too rough wasn't nice enough. He needs to be little bit nice and listen to them . Fur sure I am not going back to him again. Again it's my opinion. Thank you

11/11/2024

Very positive experience. The only thing I found odd was the fact only one area could be examined per visit. For example, both knee and elbow pain but only knee X-Rayed during this visit. That necessitated another appointment.

11/05/2024

Wonderful

11/04/2024

Slow down a bit as the patient population that Ihey serve is generally older and needs a little more time.

10/30/2024

Attentive and informative

10/29/2024

I have already recommended Dr. Gonzales to friends, and they were equally as pleased as I was with his knowledge and care.

10/28/2024

No estoy segura si ademas del doctor tienen gente que hable espa帽ol porque en la rececpion solo hablaban ingles seria bueno en caso alguien nevesite alguien en espa帽ol

10/24/2024

The Dr was super kind and explained to me all I need to know

10/14/2024

He made me feel like I was the only patient and followed up personally two days later

10/10/2024

The treatment from everyone was excellent. Again, the only issue I have is having to wait 45 min. past my appt time to see the Dr.

10/04/2024

Simply put - excellent

10/03/2024

Dr. D. Gonzalez was excellent.

09/30/2024
