Dr Schaffer was excellent in providing me options, explaining them to me. She was a great listener as well, and I did not feel rushed at all during appointment. Dr Schaeffer has an excellent attitude. She was very sweet and kind. She made me feel comfortable speaking with her.

I've been a patient of Dr Jimenez for a few years now and I can say she really is one of the best drs that's ever treated me. Previously I was with another Dr since birth and had to switch providers since I switched insurance and I'm grateful to have found Dr Jimenez. She is extremely informative and knowledgeable, she makes sure to explain things thoroughly for you and not to mention she is so warm and caring. I've referred my best friend to her and she loves her as well. Thank you for everything Dr Jimenez and Vanessa!
