    Clinician was an hour late to scheduled appt and was brief, did not offer much insight or patient education around concerns and did not have much answers to what felt like simple questions, deferred to a different provider. My appt total time once clinician entered the room was not more than 10 minutes.

    Dr Cardona is fantastic. He takes the time to listen to concerns and questions, then provides answers, without being rushed thru the process the way some providers do. He is friendly and genuine and has been great throughout my process.

    I was very impressed with Dr. Ricardo Cardona. He had obviously researched my medical history and spent a lot of time with me, explained my test results at length and thoroughly explained different treatment options. I really appreciate the time he spent with me and I would highly recommend him to others.

    I was upset he was reading my records in front of me and was explaining in kindergarten language ( like trying to explain what is his specialty he said I'm a plumber, and you need to see electrician , I was expecting more professional explanations, he could of asked me if I'm working in medical field, I actually have masters degree in pharmaceutical industry, so I had to go back look all my records and better understand what exactly happened.Anyway he was probably very knowledgeable but I didn't have much conversation,
