When I first made my appointment I was told that I didn't get to see the Dr. Duarte that I had to see the Nurse practitioner because they are the ones who take all of the new patients. ! was seeing a Nurse Practitioner Dr. Laura Bush Valenzuela, there who is excellent, who had a baby. She is great. But then here is the downfall of this business. I went in to see the other Nurse Practitioner who I have never seen before Kim Riley. I asked for a Back brace so that I could go to work for some support, because I have Ankylosing Spondylitis and have had 5 spinal surgeries. She didn't think that I needed one. She wanted to contact my Rheumatologist, which never happened to see if that would be appropriate for my condition. I never heard back from her regarding the back brace., so she is preventing me from working. Although, when I did see my Rheumatologist he said no problem, only wear when needed. So in this appointment, asking for a back brace, I was told that I needed to get a Mammogram which had nothing to do with this appointment, and she isn't my OB-GYN, so I disregarded her request. I asked for a referral for a Cardiologist was given the referral, but didn't go because I moved out of Tucson. Then yesterday 09/26/2019, I received a letter from Dr. Duarte that I have never seen before stating that I will no longer be in there care 30 days from the date of the letter dated 9/12/2019. Unbelievable, because this Dr. hasn't even seen me one time in the 8 months that I was seen at this office. GO AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION!!!! read more
