Only one experience so far... Was referred to Dr Vinas by my primary care physician due to some vascular blockage that was discovered. I was understandably concerned about the possibility of surgery being needed. When I met Dr Vinas for the first time, he stepped into the exam room, introduced himself and said, "You can relax, no surgery is needed to resolve your problem." He then went on to discuss all of the tests, and their results and how life style changes would correct my problem. Wow. The first thing he did was put an end to the worry! I feel like I can trust that he is looking out for me!
