The Allende Centre for Regenerative Medicine & Vitality
“At 3:10 I was made aware that my scheduled 2:30 appt with Dr Allende wouldn’t happen until some time AFTER 4:10….possibly not until 5:00. This is unacceptable. The office staff was kind enough to refund my $225 payment. I will not be rescheduling.”
Through active listening and thoughtful questioning, I am ready to deliver the high quality and holistic care that everyone deserves. I believe that my bedside experience as a nurse has allowed me to become more compassionate and dedicated to each patient. My background education and hospital experience has narrowed my focus in family practice, that includes the management of chronic medical conditions however I am prepared to treat any acute illnesses and complaints. Everyone deserves great care and I am ready to deliver it. God Bless you and hope to see you soon!
