Dr.DiLaFuente went out of her way to get us an MRI Appointment that had not been made but was needed that day! It was much appreciated! The MRI people showed us extremely polite/professional respect and care.

- 4 out of 5 starsReviewed on 12/8/2024
Dr. De La Fuente took a generous amount of time with my family and juggled many questions from all of us. She was gentle, patient, and kind. I appreciate that she did not rush us or share too much information at once, but was clear and concise in her explanations and answers.
