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.

Dr Amado is the real deal
She is an amazing doctor. Comes off very genuine and personable and thats a big thing in specialty care where most Docs are aloof or don't seem to care, She cares and goes over everything tests where your at and her hopes for where we want to be and is realistic. I don't feel like I am just a number to her. Really easy to talk to and understand and the course of treatment is working. So she is backing it up with results. If I feel a doctor has the personality of drywall I will fire them and get a new doctor because I feel I need a connection this isn't Jiffy Lube and I'm not a car I am a person and should be treated as so. So many doctors are lacking in the Empathy or Compassion Where this Doctor gives you 1110% and is always in the moment with you. Great Personality and the smarts to back it up. I'd give her 10/10 would definitely recommend

Dr. Amado is the most excellent Neurologist I've gone to see in the past 7 years. Dr. Amado explains EVERYTHING, every little or big detail so you understand what is wrong. My Son and I left there so knowledgeable of what is truly wrong with me. We spent close to 3 hrs there. I'm am very impressed, pleased and great fully appreciative of knowing there may be a cure for what's wrong with me. THANK YOU DR. AMADO for going above, beyond and past closing time to help me. She is one of the GREATEST..
