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.

Great doctor!
I have nothing but good things to say about Dr. Garcia and his office in lancaster. My kids really like his approach as well, very calm and never rushed. He answers all our questions and is thorough. I hope he remains my childrens doctor until they become adults.

Extremely Rude
This “doctor” spoke to me rudely and didn’t care to raise his voice when speaking to me despite having a nurse in front of him. never did I once raise my own voice or disrespect him in any way. His sarcastic comments were of no help, when all I asked him was to please check my 2 year old’s ears again because he was in a ton of pain, tugging at them. Worst experience ever! So unprofessional. I am so appalled, I just reported him.

We have been seeing Dr. Garcia along with the other 2 doctors in the practice for the past 12 years in the Van Nuys location. More recently, we have been seeing Dr. Garcia more and we have only good things to say about him and the staff there! We always get appointments with ease, even if its the day of. Our visits with Dr. Garcia never feel rushed & he does a good job of knowing his patients health history. We highly recommend him and his office for anyone looking for a good pediatrician for their child!

Dr Garcia is an excellent doctor to my kids. He always answers questions. His treatment plans are always something I am comfortable with and he is never rushed. His schedule is flexible. I always talk directly to the dr and I have called on weekends, early mornings and late nights and he always answers and addresses my concerns. He deserves all the stars and I appreciate the care and concern he shows for my children.
