She’s the most responsible surgeon. Friendly, eases your anxiety, makes you feel as if it’s no big deal. Gives clear instructions that one can follow. The best surgeon in my opinion.

Dr Velez was compassionate and informative. She cared enough to take the time to discuss my upcoming procedure and possible treatment plan. I don’t feel like I was treated as “just another patient”.

Dr. Velez was patient and kind as was her nurse. Although she was not able to assist me because my issue did not need surgery, she still spent time talking with me and responding to my concerns. I appreciate her concern and her patience.

The world needs more people like Dr. Velez! Her kindness, her willingness to spend time explaining what will happen when she probably has a million other things that need her attention, her patience and compassion with my anxiety, and those reassuring eyes above her mask make her my go to for all of the scary tests and symptoms that life throws at me.

She’s very informative and will ease your nerves. I also like that she teaches you about whatever you’ve come in for and will show you certain things. She’s an amazing doctor who I’d love to have again.
