Needing 2 hernias fixed I searched for doctors in my area (PB county) and wasn’t comfortable with the ones I met with as many did a lot of other procedures. That’s when I found doctor Azuaje. I felt completely at ease after my iniShow moretial visit and knew he was going to be the one. Having never had surgery before I was very nervous,yet he totally put my mind at ease. It’s been 2 weeks today since surgery and he explained how I would feel and he was spot on. I would and will recommend him and his staf

Was made to feel comfortable from start to finish.. Beautiful office friendly staff doctor is great... No worries no concerns Is healing very well...

Mark T • April 05, 2023

From the initial phone call to post-op communications I couldn't ask for anything more. Dr. Azuaje made sure I understood what type or procedure I was going to have and what to expect during recovery. I am grateful for his experience since my hernia was a little more involved that initially thought. Dr. Azuaje actually came into office while it was closed to write me a new prescription and while I was there he provided a quick examination. Great job, Thank you!!

Todd G • March 30, 2023

Michael M • March 21, 2023

Dr Azuaje specializes in hernias. Easy online scheduling the examine and had the surgery a week later. I don't have a primary physician so Dr Azuaje helped me schedule my pre-op examine and labs with a highly qualified colleague. The outpatient surgery went as planned. I am super happy with the results and with minimal pain/discomfort. There are no hidden costs or multiple bills; one payment covered everything. I highly recommend you contact Dr. Azuale!

Philip C • March 09, 2023

Doctor Azuaje is simply amazing. The entire process from first visit, to post-op checkup was smooth, professional and painless. He will make your feel comfortable, explain the procedure, answer questions and get it all over with in no time, without any fuss. On top of that you can call him anytime before or after the procedure with any concern you may have. It's been a week since my hernia repair and I feel I am on a fast road to recovery. Thanks doc!
