Excelente Servicio. Recomendado 100%
Saved my vacation!, lacerated my knee requiring 5 stitches, I also suffer from Syncope, so I passed out Fernando was professional and kind. He stitched me up and I was back in action in an hour. It really was the best possible experience considering the unfortunate circumstances. The cost was not outrageous considering all aspects of the event.Thanks again Fernando!
