Very pleased with attention Dr. Rodriguez gave to me and my wife. I provided a copy of surgical notes from Mayo Clinic in 1960. He read them in detail and explained them to us and hand drew pictures of what was done to correct my heart. I also explained my exercise program. He approved and gave suggestions. Very pleased with visit.

Wonderful experience, doctor was very well informed of my medical history. He took the time to review my record before the visit. He was open to questions and was very knowledgeable in the medical information. He explained every medication, the reason for it, the possible side effects, the risk vs. Benefit. I really enjoyed my visit.
