I’m so grateful to have quality medical care available right here in our community to address our health concerns in a timely way.
What could have been done to improve this visit?
This visit was excellent-a short wait time in the waiting area (I did pre register online) and in the exam room before the doctor arrived. I was listened to and thoroughly examined, questions answered, and left with a way to meet my needs. From walking through the clinic entrance, the interactions I had with RGH Clinic staff were friendly and helpful,, and professional, with a few smiles and giggles along the way.

Yes. Dr Chava made a house call to see my Mom at Goodlife Senior Living. She was having a problem and it was impossible to take her to his office. So he went to her. He took care of her. He is amazing! Portales is so blessed to have him. He is a wonderful, caring doctor. We appreciate him!
