Dr. Schmeidler is a true care provider. I am very fortunate to have her as my Physician. She is not only well versed but an overall care provider with tremendous understanding of her Clients concerns, needs and goals.

This was my first appointment with Dr Garcia. She took the time to listen to my concerns, explain in detail different ways to approach them and the advantave/disadvantage of each one of the options. She then allowed me to make an informed decision. I did not feel pressured or judged. I felt safe and in good care. I did not feel like just another number. I loved her demeanor, how patient she was and how thorough she was with everything. Please, never change!
