  • Reviewed on 12/11/2025

    Dr. Ugarte is outstanding! I would highly recommend him. That said, he was booking out 16 months for my next physical which seems excessive. This is not his problem but perhaps an issue with corporate scheduling philosophy or an overbooked practice. I appreciate that I was given the chance to book next year's physical with an NP for an earlier date, however I value my relationship with Dr. Ugarte and feel it is important to be able to see him for these annual visits.
