I have been treated by Dr. Espinosa for 9 years. She is very thorough in her treatment of my various issues. She monitors my bloodwork annnnd other testing very well. She spends time listening to me and I never feel rushed. Needed medications are discussed with the various options that can be used. The office is extremely well run. I never wait more than 5 - 10 minutes in the waiting room and 5 minutes in the examining room.
