What Our Patients are Saying
"Seen by Dr. Lugo for a yearly check. Thorough, caring, and utmost attention to detail. Answered all my concerns, going above and beyond the line of duty. The office staff is courteous and helpful, the physician assistants are excellent, the facility is immaculate. Highly recommended Dr. Lugo and his staff!!"
"Very nice staff and doctor. Highly recommend Dr. Ross!"
"Dr. Ross was very thorough and attentive. Dr. Ross spent time with me to make sure he addressed all of my concerns. Unlike most doctors I go to, I actually saw Dr. Ross, not his PA. He found one spot, that I would have never guessed was a problem, and he did a biopsy. When the results came back, I was diagnosed with a basal cell carcinoma. Within a week, he performed MOHS surgery and completely removed the cancer. The scar on my forehead is barely noticeable. I recommend everyone to schedule an appointment with him if you want a complete exam for skin cancer."
