Dr Garcia is the best GI doctor that my son has seen. He brought up a topic that was very serious and discussed treatments with me. He asked what my preference is concerning the treatment. We both agreed on the ongoing plan of care. Dr Garcia is caring, warm and knowledgeable. I appreciate that he asked for my input.
