Dr. Velez is so caring. She explained everything to me so that I could understand it. Also, she recognized me from previous surgery and that made me feel good.

Dr. Velez is amazing. She is friendly and kind. She listens carefully to what I have to say and listens to the answers to her questions. Dr. Velez is concerned with everything about me as a person and as her patient. I highly recommend Dr. Velez to anyone who wants a very good doctor and surgeon.

She has been wonderful and took time to make sure I understood my procedure and my recovery. When my surgery was delayed because of a new diagnosis of an underlying condition she took the time to call me personally and explain. Her care, competence and compassion made the whole experience less stressful which I appreciate.

She is so comforting and made me feel like it was okay to be honest with her and not feel judged like I have in the past by some providers. She seems more personable than most surgeons and I love how she is thorough, explains everything, and she and her staff will make sure it’s all written down and you know exactly what the plan is. I love them all!!!
