Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I had gall bladder surgery on a Friday with Echeverri. He left to go out of the country that evening or next day. That next day I had trouble breathing. I went to my primary doctor on Monday. I had a blood clot in each of my lungs. I was placed in ICU. His office was notified. He nor his partner came to the hospital nor called to follow up. I do not recommend him at all.

Dr. Echeverri is very caring, compassionate, down to earth doctor. He doesn’t rush you through your visit and will answer any questions you have. Very good bedside manner. I would recommend him to any of my family and friends.

Dr. Echeverri has performed several surgeries on me and has ALWAYS taken excellent care of me. Highly recommend him. He is very smart. Doesn't do anything unnecessary and always explains why he is doing what he does. Love him. Difficult to get appointments at times and you have to wait a long time when you do but its worth the wait.
