Dr. Tuazon is one of my favorite doctors. She always takes the time to explain in detail the medical terminology and the lab reports. You can tell she genuinely cares for her patients. She’s clearly very thorough at looking through the chart and doesn’t see her patients as just a schedule to get through. Her bright smile and calm demeanor are always appreciated during what can be a stressful visit.
