    My visit with Dr. Garcia-Nores was the most disappointing medical encounter I have ever had. She entered the room without making eye contact, spoke curtly, and reviewed my medical history line by line in a way that felt more like an interrogation than a consultation. When I asked about a procedure, her tone was dismissive, and I felt that she didn't want to perform the surgery. I felt judged and oddly mistrusted rather than cared for...I would not recommend Dr. Garcia-Nores to patients who are looking for active listening or a collaborative approach to their care. Patients deserve to feel respected and cared for, especially when facing something as serious as breast cancer.

    I have gone through a lot since 2017, and to have someone read from a chart to tell me how I was feeling just does not cut it. She was very uncaring and treated me like I was a fly in her exam room. She did not listen to my concerns and I would be very afraid to put my life in her hands during surgery.

    Dr. Garcia rushed through my visit and belittled me, when I asked questions. She spoke so fast and seemed very annoyed. She wasn't friendly nor did seem like she wanted to be there. She didn't explain exactly how the surgery would go. She was rough with my breast and I honestly didn't feel safe with her being my surgeon. When I was getting my pictures taken she didn't knock, she just opened the door and told the nurse she needed another pt done after me. No excuse to interrupt or I'm sorry to interrupt. She didn't show me any of the work that she has done prior or anything. I wouldn't recommend her to anyone! Let alone let her operate on me. She doesn't care about the PT and has the WORSE bedside manner, I've ever experienced!!!!! So disappointing because I was so exited about my appt.
