Dr. Mena is personable, knowledgeable and almost pain free. I would recommend him highly.
My experience was very good with Dr. Menor very honest no false hope.
Dr Mena is attentive to details of patient's history and thorough in his explanation of disease process and implications for treatment modalities. He is very empathetic and his unhurried interest seems genuine.
I highly recommend this doctor. He listens to all of your concerns thoroughly and really cares about you.
I was completely disregarded with my comcerns of symptoms and felt chastised because I was not currently having a flare. No history was reviewed because he took one glance and said, “that’s just too much!” I was then told he sees people that “can’t walk,” and was very dismissive of my photo diary of facial flares and handed me a sheet to read on a positive ANA not meaning anything; my PCP referred me because an allergist had already ruled out any allergic reaction!

Unwilling to listen or help.
No. He acted like I was a bother to him. Barely let me get questions out. I had to drag info from him. Not a pleasant demeanor
Very poor visit. I was referred to this specialist by four physicians who thought I need to see him. He acted as if I was referred to him for no reason. Basically saying why was I there for today's visit. Very disheartening and I have decided to walk away from the clinic as a whole after this encounter. I am still having the same issues and symptoms that garnered the referrals I received. Yet no answer. I feel like I have wasted plenty of money and time to end up with the definitive answer.
Was first seen by a young PA or Med student. He made me feel humiliated about my weight. I was there for reasons beyond my weight, but he kept staring at my stomach and referring back to my weight about everything. Dr. Mena did not seem interested in why I was there. I was referred to his office by my Primary Care. I would not recommend nor will I ever return to his office.
