My overall experience with Dr. Azuaje has been exceptional. He's straight forward and his approach is authentic. Upon my first consultation I was convinced this would be the way to go, and I did! Pre surgery & Post surgery has been excellent. Dr. Azuaje follow-up's are mindful and very caring. I can personally recommend Dr. Azuaje from experience and wish I had met him earlier. Thank so much Doctor for making me feel so much better.

Michael M • August 19, 2024

I highly recommend Dr. Azuaje! My hernia surgery was handled with such care and professionalism from start to finish. Dr. Azuaje explained everything clearly and made me feel at ease, and the surgery was a complete success with a smooth recovery. I'm very grateful for the excellent care and wouldn't hesitate to return for any future needs.

Paolo C • August 11, 2024

Dr Azuaje is a true professional. I went to him for a second opinion after a radiologist claimed I have a 5.5cm umbilical hernia. After a thorough examination and ultrasound Dr Azuaje concluded there is no hernia to be found! If it wasn’t for his expertise, I would be headed towards a surgery I didn’t need. Thank you Dr. Azuaje!

Mariana M • July 21, 2024

Dr Azuaje and his team were incredible, very professional and tentative. Went in for a hernia check and had surgery scheduled a few weeks later. everything turned out better than expected. He had me back regular activities within the month after surgery.

Jose R • July 03, 2024

I work for a Major US corporation and our lead Medical Advisor recommended Dr. AZUAJE. We live outside of the United States in a country with good medical care, but I wanted to find the best Hernia Surgeon. After reading all of the 5 Star reviews I have to admit that I was thinking no way could it be this good. Well, I did the appointment and surgery all within a week. The whole experience was amazingly good. Great positive team at the Surgery Center and the recovery is going great.

Anonymous A • May 08, 2024

No busques más y has una cita con el Dr. Azuaje para tu cirugía de hernia. Si no tienes seguro y hablas más español que inglés, este es el médico perfecto para ti. Mi mamá fue operada la semana pasada y está sanando perfectamente. El Dr. Azuaje se aseguró de que mi mamá recibiera la mejor atención posible durante y después de su cirugía. Mi mamá no tuvo que esperar mucho tiempo para conseguir una fecha de cirugía y está muy contenta con la operación.
