Dr. Jimendez was very professional and personable at the same time. She was familiar with my case and had studied the G.I. Records I had presented for the previous two years. She was thorough and spent an hour and 15 minutes with me in this first consultation. I have had heart surgery and other types of physical needs and never had a consultation that lasted this long. She listened to me and interacted with my wife and daughter, as well, who were kindly permitted to be present.
