    June 11, 2026 - "My experience was deeply disappointing. I felt dismissed and unheard, Dr. Orizondo asked very few questions relevant to my medical history, despite its direct bearing on my current concerns. The interaction felt perfunctory, as though my appointment was an inconvenience. She left without acknowledging me, and when I asked about bloodwork, she was already walking out the door."
