From the front office, nurses and lab staff, Dr. Sandra Pena and the team she works are excellent. Very friendly and efficient, but more importantly, Dr. Pena takes time to listen and be thorough in treating her patients. She makes you feel like more than just a number. I have complex medical issues with many specialists, and Dr. Pena makes sure to keep up of all the things going on. She is so thorough that upon review of treatment from a specialist, she caught that I had never been tested for something that might be the root cause of my symptoms. It was a simple lab test, and she was right. She helped me find relief in one area that had been bothering me for over a year. I am so grateful to her. She is a significant drive for me, but honestly, even if I moved across the country I would fly back for care. Rare to find a doctor like her these days. Thank you Dr. Pena and team!
