Dr. Cortes has been my personal physician for many years and during that period we?ve always had a very good doctor/ patient relationship. He?s always concerned about my complaints and listens to me. Then he tells me what treatment should be prescribed and I usually listen to him. He hasn?t steered me wrong so far. I think Dr. Cortes is an exceptional doctor.

Dr. Cortes works very hard to clear up my health issues. He spends a lot of time discussing my health & listens to me. I never feel rushed or uncomfortable in his office. He gets 10 stars from me & I highly recommend him. He?s been my Doctor at Southcoast for about 20 years. I also am well cared for by his nurses, Katina & Lakesha.
