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 Care
I appreciated the friendliness of the staff and Dr. Garza. Very was professional and attentive. All my questions were answered before and after my procedure. Once I came to in recovery I felt great and rested. The results of my procedure were shared and explained to me. I would definitely recommend Dr. Garza in the future.

I called Dr. Garza because I had not been feeling well for the past month. I got a tele health appt the next day. He called, listened to my issues and I was scheduled for an EGD and colonoscopy within the week. As always, Dr. Garza is empathetic and understanding and listens to your issues your concerned about. Very professional and caring.
