Words from Our Patients

Having long overdue varicose vein procedures and first finding a practitioner was stressful. After two doctor's consultations at other centers - I found PA Mercado. He was straightforward, confident, informative and did not spend time trying to "sell" me on procedures that I did not need or that were not suitable for me. In my case, a combination of Endovenous laser, Microphlebectomy and Sclerotherapy provided surprisingly fast results. The Endovenous laser and Microphlebectomy procedures were done in two office visits and the in two Sclerotherapy treatments in two follow-up visits. My legs look fantastic and everyone close to me has commented positively. PA Mercado's manner was professional yet kind. I also had Botox administered by PA Mercado and the results were excellent. I have and will recommend PA Mercado and will be returning to him as needed for Botox and other procedures as needed.

I definitely give Angel Mercado a 5 Star ⭐️ Rating. He did an incredible job on my legs. Not only did he help with the pain in the circulation in my legs from my third-degree burn scars… he totally flattened hypertropic tissue around scar and appearance. He did such a beautiful job on my legs. I started going to him for my facial Botox and fillers that look very natural and beautiful. Angels, been a true blessing in my life. Grateful Patient.
