My visit with Dr Ortega was excellent. He greeted me and asked how I was doing. He's always a friendly doctor. He went over my medical records from the last time I saw him and also notes from other doctors that I had seen after him. He always take the time to go over my medical history and explain things to me where I can understand and ask questions that I have for him. He's always courteous, patient, friendly and shows concern when he is attending to you. You can ask him so many questions and he'll always take the time to listen, and explain things where you can understand. I always leave feeling satisfied with all of my visits with him. He is a great doctor.
