As long as you just have a simple cold or need your blood pressure checked he is okay. If it is anything serious and I do mean serious then he will just say (and I quote) "Normal Wear and Tear" "That is all your pain is." Ya right, I am about to go into a very serious surgery to be done by a neurosurgen where they have to literally cut me open and insert pins, rods, reconstruct my entire neck form C-1 thru T-2!!!!! All because when every time I went to see Dr. Martinez I begged for a nerve conduction study, physical therapy, an MRI, and/or refer me to a specialist. He literally told me not to come back to see him!!! As a result I have 2 claw hands that may never again bee pain free, numb free, or 100% useful again. I have damage that would never have happened if I had just gone to my currant doctor months and months earlier! This man is only a good doctor if you need a flu shot!
