Im feel secure that Dr. Castro is the cardiologist of my son it's a relief, she's so professional and always answer my questions.

She was very friendly and very patient with my daughter. My daughter had to get an ultrasound done on her heart and she was crying the whole time, but Dr. Castro was very patient with her and I thank her for that.

I only need to say that the Dr. Castro is the best doctor ever that my child has. And I'm glad that I find her because she is the best.
