Patient Reviews
Sep 12, 2019
While Dr. Portela May run late on occasion, to me it is because he takes a great deal of time & care explaining and discussing things to the patient. Yes, they have a busy, successful practice and I don’t like to wait either. But, in this case, “the juice is worth the squeeze “. He performed a TURP and I am happy with the results and care provided
