    Dr. Perez is very thorough and easy to speak to. I have complex conditions, so we have to cover a lot of issues in one visit sometimes. He helps me prioritize my immediate concerns and decide what my plan of care will look like going forward. I believe I can have an open dialogue with him and that he genuinely cares about my progress.

    Dr. David Perez takes care of his patients. For first time ever I have a care giver that tried to find the best, quick and easy way to get solutions for issues. I have a heart condition and I had high cholesterol. His great support makes me down my high levels of Cholesterol and at same time lose weight.

    Very patient and empathetic. He ordered tests to be run before my next appt which is in 6 months so that is why no one got back to me about the tests
