This last visit Doctor seemed distracted, plus did not even review an Eco test result nor review what was being done for a particular concern.
-
Dr. Joel Rivera-Rodriguez is the best.
-
Dr. Rivera makes me feel very comfortable and always listens to what I have to say. I value his truth and honesty and all around caring of my problems. I consider him a great doctor.

Great doctor
-
Loved him as a doctor. So happy to become a patient of his.
-
Dr Joel Rivera Rodriguez is not my regular doctor but was filling in for Doctor Sara Cruz Luna that day. He was very nice and helpful. He listen to my concerns and gave me a solution until my doctor would return and made sure to also discuss it with her when she returned. He was very professional and knowledgeable.

He is always interested in my well being, and understand my requests with great responsibility and care, I consider him more like my friend than my doctor after been in his care for several years now, he and his nurse Dorothy are exceptional human beings

He listens and is compassionate. He explains lab results and provides detailed guidance and explanation of what is needed next. Dr. Joel is always kind, and clean with his person, which is very important to me.

Dr Rivera is a very knowledgeable Doctor! He is a good listener! I’m glad he is my Doctors for many years now! Thank you Optum. For having him in Your group!! 🙏❤️
-
Very caring and knowledgeable
-
He is always friendly. Always ask how do I feel before he provides test results and or referrals recommended according to my symptoms if any. Shows real interest about my health. Always recommend to call the office before going to ER unless it's really necessary. I have referred him to friends. That's how much I trust his care and the only reason I changed insurance, just to keep him as my PCP after Optum dropped my old insurance.
-
Perhaps we are too comfortable with each other and he accepts what I say without checking for himself. While I appreciate his confidence in me and the test results checking me physically would make me feel much better especially when I have a specific concern or comment. After all I am there to speak to the expert which I indeed am NOT. I do appreciate his kind understanding and support over the years.
-
Very caring and interested. Other doctors ...not so much!I would recommend him in a minute.
