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.

Excellent communicatior.

Dr Rios takes his time explaining and you don't leave unless he knows you understand what he's saying. I've had heart problems for many years and have seen 4 other Cardiologists. He's by far the best I don't feel like I'm just a number. I can't say enough good things about him. My daughter takes me and she actually works at UF and she said if she ever has heart problems, she wants him. (Praying she never has heart issues) He should be acknowledged for being such an incredibly good doctor. Great bedside manner!

Dr Rios was thorough and very understanding. He doesn't sugar coat anything and I appreciate that. I'm so glad I saw him and he will be my Cardiologist. Very good bedside manner. Takes his time explaining things and makes sure you understand.

Dr. Rivas is a very smart and knowledgeable Cardiologist. I got impressed how good he is and how much time he took to explain everything to me in an easy way to understand all my heart issues. I already recommended him to a friend of mine. Thanks Dr. Rivas!

Dr. Rivas is a very compassionate, smart and professional Cardiologist. He took all necessary time to explain to me about my heart problems that none of the Cardiologist I have seen before had ever done. Thank you Dr. Rivas!
