Zach who works with Dr. Garcia makes all the difference! Zach went above and beyond for my dad, who is a disabled Veteran. When I had questions or needed additional help or approvals, Zach was one that had it all under control. He made me feel confident I was in the right place for treatment for my dad. Because of Zach, I had a great experience seeing Dr. Garcia. Zach is way over qualified for this position and I am thankful he is using his talents here.
