Richard Garza's Online Review Report Card

I was in the unfortunate place of needing radiation therapy for prostate cancer. Dr. Garza and his staff were supportive, attentive, and really put me at ease through the whole process and made my appointments and each treatment visit fly by. I would 10/10 recommend him and his staff for anyone needing this type of care.

Excellent removal of gallbladder and appendix as well as follow up aftercare. Highly recommend.

Dr. Garza did a wonderful job on my right inguinal hernia. I walked out of the hospital a few hours later, and was back to normal in less than a week.

Dr. Garza is wonderful. We are so thankful for him and his team. Our ten year old daughter was rushed to the hospital and they ended up ordering an ultrasound. Dr. Garza met us in ultrasound and watched instead of waiting longer for the results to come back. He ultimately diagnosed her with appendicitis. They didn’t wait and prepped her for surgery with Dr. Garza at 1am on a Sunday. Even at 1am he was pleasant, professional, informative and kind. He was able to answer all of my ridiculous questions and put our mind at ease our little girl would be just fine. He did the surgery in about a half hour and talked me through everything to keep an eye out for and what to expect. We are now two weeks post op and he just gave her a clean bill of health. My little girl is good as new. Thank you Dr. Garza and team. God Bless.

Very good service.

I was admitted to Community of the Monterey Peninsula several hours after arriving in the emergency room. I was advised that I needed my gallblader removed and that Dr Garza would perform The surgery. I met Dr Garza later that evening. He explained what was to take place the following day. I connected with Dr Garza immediately that afternoon. He was professional in every way. He put my mind at ease regarding my scheduled surgery. I went to sleep that night, my mind totally at rest. I was visited daily by members of Dr Garza's staff of doctors. I was equally impressed with their caring bed side manner and their overall professionalism

Dr. Garza has operated on myself once and my 93 year old mother twice. He is the best I have had the blessing to work on us. He is so kind and gentle, knows what he is doing! I am so thankful that we were able to have him work on the both of us. He saved my life!

I first saw Dr. Garza when I was hospitalized for an infected probable spider bite. He operated on it and provided great follow through. I felt like I was listened to and he also had everything biopsied to cover bases. When I came to his office, I was taken promptly and the nursing staff was pleasant and great at taking care of the wound.

Dr. Garza saved my husband's life almost a year ago when the doctor performed emergency abdominal surgery on him late at night. The Doctor was very thorough and efficient in diagnosing the problem, using the best technology available and consulting with us. He performed the surgery promptly and skillfully; his follow-up care during the recovery period in hospital was outstanding. He visited frequently & kept us informed. He was very reassuring; an intelligent, kind, and caring doctor.

Very nice doctor. Straight to the point. Fast procedure. Nice staff.
