He demonstrates his expertise in a holistic way: diet, exercise, relationships, medications, surgeries, etc. I think he's brilliant and very human. In addition I am profoundly grateful that he communicates with the whole care team for the patient. For example, if you need cardio care, he coordinates the data and consults with the other physicians and gives you as much time as you need to understand your options and your diagnoses. This is critical when you're at a juncture between several experts and doctors. He's a real mensch.

Dr. Cortes is such a good docter. I recommend Dr. Cortes without hesitation. I have been his…read morepatient for a few years now and I really like him. He really listens, I never feel rushed, I never feel judged, and Dr. Cortes is very friendly and really cute! ( And happily married.) He is always concerned with my health and well-being.

I hope Dr. Cortes stays in Santa Cruz for a long, long time. Thank you, A very appreciative patient.

Dr. Dave is a very smart, knowledgeable, caring, and respectful Doctor who has been practicing…read morefamily medicine for over 50 years. In his office, he has an Ultrasound machine, a microscope, and some other medical instruments. He can always know what is going on with the patient based on objective & subjective findings and his 50+ years of experiences, and so offer proper advice or options based on the patient's individualized conditions. Timely best possible referrals have saved many people's lives because he knows very well where to direct the patient to go for their further care and treatment. BTW, your heart won't break after you get the bill. The charges are extremely reasonable. His staff, Andrea and Monica, are warm-hearted people who love to help people as well. I know this because I have been in this office for a few years practicing Chinese medicine, providing acupuncture and related services. Just give you a couple of examples: Dr. Dave found my patient's huge tumor with his ultrasound machine upon her first visit and offered her a timely & best possible referral so my patient got very well taken care of; he spent hours and hours trying to find a super specialist who can really solve another patient's very difficult problem in his budget; ... Dr. Dave works beyond office hours everyday. He may follow up with patents, making referrals, talking with his colleagues ... . Even when the patient himself gives up and becomes hopeless, he doesn't. He is trying to work out a solution for everyone no matter how difficult the problem is. I highly recommend Dr. Dave. I sincerely wish he can work until at least 100 years old and can see more patients!!!

He is open to discussing my ideas for treatment, but will tell me in a respectful way when he doesn't believe something is in my best interest, like a wise owl guarding over my health and well-being, looking out for the long term risk/benefit to any approach. He also really cares about me as an individual, and works hard to help me towards my goals. Adam was my doctor in my high school years, and when I moved back to the area, I knew who to go to when I was having some health issues. A real family doctor, he identified my dad's cancer, and supported him through the acute years of chemo after setting him up with a great oncologist. My dad is stable and healthy a decade later. He also treated my grandma (nonny) and came to the bedside of her hospice room during those last days of her long life, sharing stories, laughing with us. He's made a big positive impact on my family.
