I was referred to Dr. Alemar after some abnormal lab results and radiology findings. I was able to get an appointment with him quickly, and he immediately initiated a comprehensive series of tests. While we ruled out my initial fears, Dr. Alemar was relentless in his pursuit to identify the root cause of my symptoms. He referred me to several specialists, and together, we finally uncovered the source of my issues. I am incredibly grateful to Dr. Alemar for orchestrating my journey to recovery!

Doctor Alemar and his staff are very friendly and highly professional. They take the time to listen and never rush me. There is never a long wait time, usually being taken immediately or within 5 to 10 minutes of arrival time. I highly recommend this practice.
