Patient Testimonial:
Kristen H. - "The possibility of facing a surgery can be stressful and frightening. I felt this way when I was referred to Dr. Castillo's office for a consultation. I was pleasantly surprised when Joni McIntyre came into the room, listened to my symptoms and examined me. When both Joni and Dr. Castillo recommended surgery I felt I was in very good hands. Surgery day, Joni's smile and warmth immediately put me at ease and I felt safe. Surgery a success! Would highly recommend Joni & Dr Castillo if needed."
