"Very fortunate to have found Dr. Menezes"

Dr. Menezes is one of the most caring doctors I have ever met. Even though this was my first time to visit her, she explained everything she was doing and even when I called a day later to ask a question she called me back. I have told several people about her already and I would highly recommend her to anyone. It is not often that you find a doctor that actually cares about their patients. I am so very fortunate to have found Dr. Menezes and this office.
