Once you're an established patient, it's super easy to make an appointment online. One of the things I like about this practice is you can only make same day/next day appointments. At my previous doctor, I'd have to wait weeks for an appointment. The office waiting room is very spacious and the staff professional and courteous. I never have to wait past my appointment time and feel like my doctor is never rushing me out the door. Their patient portal is easy to use and a convenient way to communicate with your doctor. I love... read more

I love their appointment practice, not scheduling out more than 3 days. Even if Dr Nelson isn't available (my GP), I feel very comfortable going with any other doctor. The medical staff is knowledgeable, caring and competent. I feel very well taken care of anytime I contact them. Besides Dr Nelson being an amazing and gifted doc, Dr Acuna~ is right up their with Dr Nelson in compassion, patience, and knowledge. He is comforting and prepared to discuss any situation with empathy. I've kept them as my primary care physician de... read more

Dr Acuna is amazing!! Extremely helpful and ready to get to the root of the issues. He's not a "give it a pill" kind of doctor, which I love! He genuinely cares about his patients & his assistant is great too!

I was dubious of this practice when I first followed Dr. Witte here because they book appointments no further out than 3 days. How could that possibly work?! Now, I love it and do not want to go anywhere else - I hate to go back to "we can see you in three weeks." I called yesterday morning at 8:15 AM and got a 10:30 AM appointment. I like the two doctors I have seen here: Dr. Natalie Witte, who is moving away, and Dr. Katy Kirk, who I just saw this week. They listen, they respect the patients, and they get you in and out. ... read more

I called and they were able to get me in as a new patient on the same day. Everybody at the office was very friendly and knowledgeable. Dr. Hernandez took his time and listened to everything and put together a plan. I would recommend this practice to anybody

I saw Dr. Acuna within 3 hours of calling their office for an appointment! He was very thorough and explained my condition well. He did not seem rushed, and I didn't have to wait long for him to see me upon check in. Overall, I would recommend him. My husband and I absolutely adore him! My husband had an unknown medical condition that Dr. Acuna was able to address after only his first visit! My husband had been suffering with this condition for at least 1.5 years. Excellent job, Dr. Acuna! Thank you for saving my husband's ... read more

My family and I have been associated with this office of excellent physicians for several years now. Each doctor is completely focused on patient care. The confidence of knowing any doctor you see is more than competent if your doctor is unavailable is a huge comfort to me. Their referrals outside of their office within the Honor Health System have been the best in the valley. They have been equally devoted to patient care. Like most families we have had multiple health issues. Most recently I successfully battled breast can... read more

New to Az, the two hardest things to establish are a new hair stylist and a primary care physician. Desert Ridge Family Physicians was recommended and was easy to get to. I wasn't sure I was going to like the same day/next day appt. system but I have yet to have a problem. My husband and I both see Dr. Michelle Velasquez. She is caring, takes her time and listens to you. As someone in the healthcare industry for many years, I can be supercritical, but she is easy to work with. The staff at this practice is great. Furthermore... read more
