Review for Dr. Macias
He is a great doctor, front office staff doesn’t know what is going on their response to everything is “I really don’t know “ so frustrating and they don’t try to help

Review for Dr. Bhaskar
I've been seeing Dr. Villard for quite a while now. He is a very kind doctor who listens to you. My ongoing skin problems have greatly improved since seeing him. The wait time in his office has never been longer than 10 minutes. I highly recommend Dr. Villard.

Review for Dr. Villard
Dr. Singla came in promptly and, knowing my heart issues, proceeded to discuss current lab results. He listened to my heart carefully and for some time. He then said I needed an appointment for an echocardiogram in one month. Dr. Singla is personable, friendly, and completely thorough during exams....
