Patient Reviews

Everyone is very nice and respectful. In the office nurse, xray tech, and Dr Martinez is the kindest Dr I've ever seen. She took time with me and listened. She gave me options on how I can start feeling better!

April 9, 2026

5

Dr. Martinez is exactly the kind of physician I needed. As someone who trains five days a week and doesn't want to slow down, I didn't want to be told to just accept the pain and live with it - and she never did. Even when my MRI came back largely normal, she took my symptoms seriously, clearly explained every option available to me, and guided me toward the best path forward. She treated me like an active person who doesn't need to slow down. I'm grateful to have found her.

Dr. Martinez is the BEST!! She is what a doctor should be----caring and considerate. She LISTENS to her patients. I can't praise her enough. She never rushes me out of there or minimizes my complaints or questions. I think I may just adopt her!

I came in 3 months ago unable to dress myself because my muscles in my arms hurt so bad from taking that poisonous Statin fir Cholesterol unable to dress myself. Dr Martinez is personable, skilled, talented, intelligent, trustworthy and freakin BRILLIANT! She understands the importance of human touch with her patients to make them feel comfortable and supported. I needed help taking off my shirt but I'm leaving her office dressing my SELF without my help from my husband!!! Independence is life changing medicine! Pay her what she is worth WellStar!

Great job from the front desk through the back-office staff. My X-ray technician was delightful,a great listener who clearly knows her craft. When you have such capable and attentive staff, it truly makes the physician's job easier. Thank you for getting me started with a clear plan of action. I feel confident that my shoulder and neck are in very good hands.

March 15, 2026

Dr. Martinez is an excellent person, very kind, she listens and explains things very well, and above all, she's professional. I recommend her 100%. I had tried different specialists, and honestly, I didn't like the service they provided. I met Dr. Martinez when she started treating my son's knee problem. I really liked the service and attention they gave my son during and after his surgery, and without hesitation, I decided that Dr. Martinez was a good candidate to treat my knee problem. Without a doubt, the doctor knows what she's doing; she's very professional. Thank you, Dr. Martinez, for your excellent service!

February 21, 2026

I waited over an hour to be seen which is highly unusual. At about 45 min in, I asked the front desk when I'd be seen. The woman at the front desk went to check. The other woman asked if I checked in. I said I did with someone that was no longer there. She assumed I was just sitting in the waiting area for I don't know what. I said I signed in on the chart. She said I should have told someone I was there. I said I did! The woman I checked in with gave me the chart to sign in. The front desk woman assumed I had done something wrong. I don't know what protocol is but I assume when you sign the chart then you are waiting to be seen. It's unacceptable to have someone waiting in the waiting room for over 45 min without asking them if they need help. And once my appt time came and went, do you not check if that person is there?!?

February 19, 2026

The doctor way very courteous, professional and attentive to my questions. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of her medical care.

Dr. Martinez is an excellent person, very kind, she listens and explains things very well, and above all, she's professional. I recommend her 100%. I had tried different specialists, and honestly, I didn't like the service they provided. I met Dr. Martinez when she started treating my son's knee problem. I really liked the service and attention they gave my son during and after his surgery, and without hesitation, I decided that Dr. Martinez was a good candidate to treat my knee problem. Without a doubt, the doctor knows what she's doing; she's very professional. Thank you, Dr. Martinez, for your excellent service!

I waited over an hour to be seen which is highly unusual. At about 45 min in, I asked the front desk when I'd be seen. The woman at the front desk went to check. The other woman asked if I checked in. I said I did with someone that was no longer there. She assumed I was just sitting in the waiting area for I don't know what. I said I signed in on the chart. She said I should have told someone I was there. I said I did! The woman I checked in with gave me the chart to sign in. The front desk woman assumed I had done something wrong. I don't know what protocol is but I assume when you sign the chart then you are waiting to be seen. It's unacceptable to have someone waiting in the waiting room for over 45 min without asking them if they need help. And once my appt time came and went, do you not check if that person is there?!?

Great job from the front desk through the back-office staff. My X-ray technician was delightful,a great listener who clearly knows her craft. When you have such capable and attentive staff, it truly makes the physician's job easier. Thank you for getting me started with a clear plan of action. I feel confident that my shoulder and neck are in very good hands.

I came in 3 months ago unable to dress myself because my muscles in my arms hurt so bad from taking that poisonous Statin fir Cholesterol unable to dress myself. Dr Martinez is personable, skilled, talented, intelligent, trustworthy and freakin BRILLIANT! She understands the importance of human touch with her patients to make them feel comfortable and supported. I needed help taking off my shirt but I'm leaving her office dressing my SELF without my help from my husband!!! Independence is life changing medicine! Pay her what she is worth WellStar!

Dr. Martinez is exactly the kind of physician I needed. As someone who trains five days a week and doesn't want to slow down, I didn't want to be told to just accept the pain and live with it - and she never did. Even when my MRI came back largely normal, she took my symptoms seriously, clearly explained every option available to me, and guided me toward the best path forward. She treated me like an active person who doesn't need to slow down. I'm grateful to have found her.

Everyone is very nice and respectful. In the office nurse, xray tech, and Dr Martinez is the kindest Dr I've ever seen. She took time with me and listened. She gave me options on how I can start feeling better!
