"I had a fall that sent me to the Emergency Room. While at ER, it was determined I had a UTI. About a week after my fall, I started to have bouts of complete incontinence every time I would stand up. I was worried something bad was going on with a bladder sling I had put in place over 25 years ago. I found Dr. Bullock and put in a call to be scheduled to see him as everyone I had spoke too had a month wait minimum. Lucky for me, Dr. Bullock had a cancellation and was able to get me in the next day. He was able to put my mind at ease and determine that the antibiotic I was put on in the ER was not effective. He followed up with my on patient portal and made sure I was well taken care of. He had a great bedside manner and didnt seem to rush me even though I was a brand new patient to him."

"Dr. Cardenas is a fantastic podiatrist. I highly recommend him. I had visited 3 different podiatrists in the last 8 years due to chronic foot pain. Each doctor told me that I only needed inserts in my shoes. The pain never went away and increased in intensity as time passed. I went to Dr. Cardenas upon the recommendation of my primary care physician. He was the first doctor to order an MRI. The MRI showed a tumor in my foot. He immediately contacted me, talked with me about the options, and then recommended that I go to SLU oncology in order to have the very best equipment and specializations available to me. I had an appointment scheduled with SLU hospital in one week and surgery one week after that. My tumor was benign and the pain is completely gone! "
