I think Dr. Martinez is exceptional, and I feel fortunate that she is my doctor. My only comment would be is that when you end up having, I think, as a medical assistant, at the beginning, it would be nice for them to say who they are and what their role is, that I'm the medical assistant or whatever they are, because it's consistent when I go to Well STAR practices that you end up being in the room talking to someone but you don't know who it is and you don't know what their role is or why they're there. So anyway, just a comment, but not any reason I wouldn't come to Well STAR and not any reason that I wouldn't want Dr. Martinez to be my doctor.

Dr. Martinez was personable, professional, and very knowledgeable. She outlined several alternatives for continuing treatment for my knees issues, including an open invitation to reach out should my issues worsen or to even ask questions. First class!

Melissa Martinez was very helpful. She was a listening ear. She explained everything I needed to know about what was going on with me. And she even asked me if I had any questions. And if I couldn't think of any at the time, I could always call. She's awesome. I recommend Dr. Melissa Martinez to anyone.

My person to person interactions were wonderful. My problem was with the clear system. I preregistered at home and was told I was all set. when I get to the facility and use the machine, (kiose), It can't recognize me, and consequently it takes more time to do what I have previously done at home.

Dr Martinez made me feel like her only patient! She listened, asked sincere questions, and then applied her wealth of skills and knowledge to my treatment. She administered a cortisone shot which was painless for me and which immediately helped me with my knee discomfort. I feel lucky to have her treating me. She is a tremendous ambassador for your brand. I appreciate you all and especially her. Thank you.

Everything was awesome. Dr. Martinez was awesome. She's very detailed and thorough with explaining and letting me know what was going on. All the nurses, everybody who helped, no staff, they were so accommodating and so sweet and honest and let me know what was going on. They were just very patient with me knowing that I was a patient that never had surgery or been under anesthesia like that. So I just really loved the experience. I felt safe. And the only thing that would make this better if you guys would stop charging us. Have a great day and I love you.
