I liked Dr. Garcia but I realize that he is only a gate way to other labs and tests. It's too bad that he is with Optum as I am fast loosing confidence in your company

Dr. Garcia is an amazing man and doctor. He gives his patience respect and always listens to our concerns and helps us look for solutions or outcomes that will work for us. He is a very patient and courteous man, and we would not change anything about him. We have followed Dr. Garcia when he was in the South Valley, Montgomery and now at the Journal Center. We would follow him anywhere in Albuquerque. Thank you, Dr. Garcia, for your dedication to your patients.

He was very personable and took time with procedure and had me return to complete procedure so as not to do damage my ear. I went in for ear pain and wax buildup.
