Dr. Vazquez has been my physician for almost 22 years, and I can say with all my heart that he has…read moregenuinely saved my life. I trust Dr Vazquez completely. He is kind, patient, exceptionally skilled, and consistently goes above and beyond for his patients. Dr Vazquez never rushes. He listens. He cares. And he always makes sure every concern -- big or small -- is thoroughly addressed. Under his care, I feel safe, understood, and truly looked after. He has guided me through countless health challenges, connected me with excellent specialists, and supported me through every step. I'm deeply grateful for the ease of reaching him through the online messaging system, which gives me so much peace of mind. His office is modern, comfortable, and easy to access -- a calm, welcoming space that reflects the quality of his care. I cannot recommend Dr. Vazquez enough. He is an extraordinary doctor and a blessing in my life!

There are a lot of problems with losing your estrogen supply. I also have a messed up vagina as it's was put back together too tightly. He could have woken me up and asked what I wanted. You can do another surgery to take stuff out, you can't put it back in. He ruined my life.

Dr. Ciaravino basically saved my wife's life. As a doctor, he is confident and knowledgeable…read morewithout being overbearing and answered all our questions prior to a complicated surgery involving some new techniques not yet done at Kaiser (at the time). Since then the approach he used with her has become more standard procedure at Kaiser, thanks to his innovation and excellent work. Post-surgery, he provided follow-up care for years, making personal contact with my wife, even though he could easily have passed this on to another doctor or NP. I have great respect, fondness and gratitude for this amazing surgeon and really good man. Prior to the surgery we checked around at UCSF, Stanford, CPMC and, in fact, people knew of and recommended Dr. Ciaravino at Kaiser as their top choice. He was great and I would highly recommend him.

I never seen such a disaster for a doctor or office staff. He's a joke and a sorry excuse for a doctor. I left the office knowing that this guy is not going to be my doctor . There's plenty of good doctors left just not this guy. Thank you for nothing. Because of his piss poor manners and treatment I was able to find much better and real doctor somewhere else. 0 stars.

I usually go to the office in Hayward but this office is pretty nice. The office is pretty small…read morethough with a few patient rooms. If it wasn't farther, I would have gone here instead. The staff is really friendly and helpful. The only thing is I am not sure if they are experienced? They had a small lab room and one lady was in charge that day; very nice though. I had to draw blood but the lady didn't even get a vein??? So I had to get poked again? Geez. They may have had a hard time since I had small veins so they had to get the manager to do it. The Hayward office at least could get to the vein... I would still go here but not sure about having them poke me? ;-/

Mostly, I want a doctor who isn't snobby and treats me l as if I am stupid, who will give me the right treatment, will refer me to the right people. Someone I can be honest and direct with and I trust will give the same back. He has always responded immediately in emergencies, even late on New Years Eve and never bilks his patients and that's how he shows that he really cares.

I recommend Dr. Belk with some caution: If you like warm and fuzzy doctors, this is NOT the doctor…read moreto see. If you like doctors who are intelligent--even sharp--rather stoic, has your best in mind, yet isn't trying to win any personality contests, well Dr. Belk is the ONE. One star is for his intelligence and straightforwardness, which can be hard but he tells it like he sees it with no wide smiles only slight smurks.. Second star is because, unlike the routine at Alameda Family Physicians---and big reason why I like him--Dr. Belk is saving me hundreds of dollars by referring me to a cheaper pharmacy and filling my routine prescriptions for a longer period without unnecessary additional visits like Alameda Family Physicians required of me. Kudos to Dr. Belk on this one!. 3rd star is because he switched me to a better, more efficient medication than the practitioners at Alameda Family Physicians did--and again, for less cost to me (I am a cash pay) patient and I already feel better with this medication change than I have in 5 years! Thumbs up to Dr. Belk on this one! 4th star is because his brusk, dry, sarcastic humor along with the unhappy look that is practically glued to his face--still made me laugh although I don't prefer this style of comedy on a regular basis. Thanks for the efforts at comedy, Dr. Belk! 5th star I took away only because he isn't charming like James Bond. He has absolutely NO bedside manner, which I think is important for doctors to have--although I would prefer competence over charm in my doctor. After all, he is a doctor not a gigolo, right? I prefer a little warmth or a genuine, caring laugh and perhaps some reflective listening or at the very least some hint of compassion when I don't see eye to eye with him...attempting to humor me if he doesn't agree with me a little, would help greatly---but he won't do that. He sticks to his guns, like it or not---no niceties there. Summary: Doctor Belk has saved me money and gave me more effective medications than my last doctor did--so I consider him a very competent doctor. If he had a more delightful, compassionate charming personality----he'd be just about a perfect five star doctor, but because he's not trying to win any personality contests--he gets 4 stars. I recommend him if you have anti-social punk rocker / goth friends and ENJOY the ones who don't smile or hug the best.
