I’ve been with Dr. Penaflor for 26 years and can’t say enough nice things about him. He listens to my concerns and goes over my charts very thoroughly with me and answers any questions I may have.

Dr. Rodolfo is the best doctor I have ever had, sans the trauma surgeon who did my broken hip 3 years ago. Dr. Rod helped me get down over 100 pound weight loss, no more diabetes. I am in pretty good shape in the organs, but my skeleton is a mess. A badly done surgery in 1983 has pretty much got me disabled. The scar tissue invasion into the my spinal cord has caused excessive pain and weakness and fatigue. Being overweight did not help. My former Dr. thru Optum was good but he never told me how badly the clonazepam was addictive. I am now attempting to get off of the help of the care team at Optum. Then I will be only on pain meds. Dr. Penaflour, Haley, Dr, Hildy all have been a great help to me over the last 2 years. Slowly I am weaning off the clonazepam. Dr. Penaflor was instrumental in this endeavor. I am very grateful to him and the care staff.
