Reviews
I am a patient of Dr. Espinoza’s and recently had and endoscopy done. I could not be more impressed with how smooth the entire visit and procedure went. There is always nerves about being put under for a procedure but I was met with kind smiling faces and an easy check in process that helped to keep me calm. The anesthesia nurse and doctor were both very professional and kind and answered all my questions. I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Espinoza, his bed side manner is top notch, he is incredibly smart while still down to Earth and speaks to me in a way that is easy to understand. The procedure was quick and easy and he explained everything thoroughly . When I woke up he was there a smile and his findings. He went over them in detail. I work in the medical field and rub shoulders with many gastroenterologists, and Dr. Espinoza is by far one of the greats! I have recommended him to all my friends and family and no one has ever had anything but compliments to share about the care he has provided!
I’ve been a patient of Dr. Espinoza’s since 2013. He’s always taken care of me. Answers any and all questions I have & he really listens to my concerns. He’s proactive in my treatment & requests testing in timely matters. There’s a reason his been my gastroenterologist for 11 years!
Very professional, listened to my concerns and explained his opinions on what needed to be done.
Outstanding Dr and Staff
It was a good visit to the clinic and especially a young woman who treated me very kindly, she spoke English and Spanish, also the doctor 👨⚕️ was somewhat good and I say somewhat well, because at no time did I see him smile or show some smile as we always do when we talk to someone, but apart from everything it was good
