Dr. Velez is amazing! She took the time to show me charts, my ultrasound compared to others. She took the time to explain thoroughly all questions I had, and the procedure and process I will be having. I will highly recommend her. She was friendly, and she listened, and I felt comfortable after talking to her about my concerns.

Dr. Velez was excellent! She is compassionate, extremely thorough and took the time needed without rushing to explain everything to me. She clearly has passion for her work. It was also great to see someone that “looks like me” be the he doctor I saw. Thank you so much!

I wish every doctor were to have her “bedside manner.” She is so hopeful and happy that I left feeling happy and hopeful, too. If a patient is going to catch something contagious—it should be a good attitude!!!
