Dr. Acosta broke down the medical terms into non medical terms after reading the CAT Scan so I could understand his concerns.

July 26, 2026

Both Brittany & Fredricka were able to help me stay calm. I had arrived 2 hours early, as I was asked the day before, These two had me registered, vitals done and sitting in a room when Dr Acosta arrived.

The staff at the Lab were wonderful. I had been aprehensive and I need not have - they made the tests go by so fast. Dr. Acosta Sanchez has a gift. He makes me feel like he listens to my concerns without seeming to be on a time squeeze. I wish all medical students could be taught by this man.

Well, I like my doctor because he explains to me the things that I need to know about psychedosis, which I don't know. I have other pulmonary doctors that are good. All the pulmonary doctors are good, but this doctor was really good because he showed my x-rays. He talked to me about my situation and he cares. That's the biggest thing. He cares. And that's all I want to say. Thank you. Have a blessed day.
