1 out of 5 Reviewed on 2025-10-23

My visit with Dr. Garcia-Nores was the most disappointing medical encounter I have ever had. She entered the room without making eye contact, spoke curtly, and reviewed my medical history line by line in a way that felt more like an interrogation than a consultation. When I asked about a procedure, her tone was dismissive, and I felt that she didn't want to perform the surgery. I felt judged and oddly mistrusted rather than cared for...I would not recommend Dr. Garcia-Nores to patients who are looking for active listening or a collaborative approach to their care. Patients deserve to feel respected and cared for, especially when facing something as serious as breast cancer.

I have gone through a lot since 2017, and to have someone read from a chart to tell me how I was feeling just does not cut it. She was very uncaring and treated me like I was a fly in her exam room. She did not listen to my concerns and I would be very afraid to put my life in her hands during surgery.
