Dr. Valls listens, answers all questions and cares about his patients. I had been to the ER a few days prior and he got me in quickly to follow-up.

Dr. Valls Took his time and answered all of my questions. He even showed me pictures in an anatomy book of what was going on to offer further explanation.

I loved Dr. Valls' attention. Quite friendly, attentive to what I was saying and speaking Spanish made me feel confident with the confidence that I understood what he was saying.

Dr Valls is very thorough and extremely knowledgeable when he explains things to me. He had a lot to go over. He took his time to explain the sleep study I had when the Dr who ordered it didn't call me about it or go over it.

Dr Valls is always attentive to my healthcare concerns and clearly states in layman's terms his review of my health comparisons from year to year. I know doing this day in time that physicians are extremely overwhelmed and busy with patient care issues. I always look forward to seeing and hearing Dr Valls's assessment of my healthcare needs.

The doctor looks at his computer most of the time, not the patient. I'm never sure whether or not he is paying attention to me. He doesn't clearly explain the purpose of the tests that he orders or tie together in an understandable way the symptoms that I report and the plan for diagnosis and treatment. He prescribes many medications but I don't always understand their purpose as they relate to my symptoms and treatment plan.
