I have been seeing Dr. Emily Edwards for several years, and I could not recommend her more highly! She is thorough and VERY knowledgeable. She also takes her time and I never feel rushed. The MA's are excellent as well. As a nurse, I know a good physician when I see one and Dr. Edwards is fantastic.

The attitude at this place is incomprehensible. I simply questioned the Dr's assistant politely as to why I have completed an electronic patient info survey as well as a hand written one, and she was asking me the same very questions all over again, just curious. Shockingly, she than returned to the room asking me to now take another electronic "Mental Health Survey" and dropped it on me like I was a problem. The survey was actually set up in that it was convoluted without a place to leave an explanation (such as I was there... read more

If I could give Desert Ridge Family Physicians office zero stars I would. Two weeks ago my doctor changed my thyroid medication without telling me or getting blood work done. I made an appointment as soon as I could to see him. Because of how I am feeling, tired, lethargic, foggy brained, I went to the wrong building. I was nine minutes late for my appointment. Because of this, Julie at the front desk told me that I would have to wait for all the other patients that were on time for their appointments before I could be seen.... read more

I've been going to DRFP for 6 years. The care and dedication from both their physicians and wonderful staff are top notch. Dr. Velasquez is brilliant and warm, a very caring doctor. She spends time and is an active listener. I'm in good hands there, you will be too!

Dr. Gazda is the best. I'm not usually one to get all worked up about a family physician but Dr. Gazda is something special. We started going to him when he was previously in Mesa and it was a no brained for us to follow him even after he moved to N Phx. He's fantastic with my daughter and as long as I'm in the valley he'll be the only Dr I'll see. Unlike most places that are putting an emphasis on volume over quality he takes his time and you never feel rushed or just like another patient. If your looking to change physicia... read more

Made an appointment with this practice for the first time. One star for accepting a new patient and same day appointment however complete waste of time. Saw Dr. Wheeler for a sore throat/trouble swallowing lasting over a week. She said it could be mono and no test for strep. I asked her what would a diagnosis for mono do to which there is no treatment for to which she said but at least you'll know what you have. I asked her what I can do to get the swelling down and she said she could give me a throat calming spray. Walked o... read more
