  • "Dr. Gonzalez clearly knows what's he's doing & he cares about my concerns and my quality of life. What amazed me most I said this because there a few that did, he told me together we will get you better and back to enjoying life and things that I told him I love to do. When I mentioned that I didn't want to be dependent on any meds he assured me that he would only give me what I need and see me through the end. I can't enough good things about my experience. Unlike other doctors I've seen Dr. Gonzalez "listens" to you. He listens and pays attention to how you speak, your responses and your movements. I would highly recommend Dr Gonzalez to anyone. He's a diamond in the rough. Thank you so much."
