Dr. Velez seems very knowledgeable and is always professional and kind. We will continue to see him as we are happy with his care.

This is my only constructive criticism as he is wonderful in all other ways.

02/01/2021

Very professional.

01/26/2021

My father has been seeing Dr. Velez for years and we are very pleased with our experiences with him and his lovely staff. My only suggestion is a reminder to Dr. Velez to allow the patient to answer one question before asking a second. My father has Parkinson's and he processes questions very slowly. So while processing question 1, Velez would ask question 2 before my dad could process the first. This made it difficult for the correct info to get relayed to Dr. Velez. Thankfully, I was at the appointment and aware what was happening and could correct the answers. Other then that one suggestion, Dr. Velez has always been a very knowledgeable, professional and respectful provider and we continue to look forward to future appointments with him.

01/26/2021

My husband has an advanced and complex medical condition. He requires constant care. We are so grateful for Dr. Velez's compassion, knowledge, patience, thoroughness, kindness, and expertise. Additionally, your facility is spacious and safe for everyone. Thank you.
