      Dr. Valestra & his staff are very professional care providers . Dr. Valestra listens to what I have to say about my issues, he is through & engaging. His treatment plan has always helped remedy my illness. Dr. Valestra has a wonderful bedside manner & never rushes me out of the office. May I also add I have never waited more than a few minutes in the exam room for Dr. V to come In.
