The pain in my back was killing me. I was willing to do anything that would take the pain away. So, upon one of my friend's recommendations, I visited Hospital de la Familia and was attended by Dr. Juan Antonio Bustamante. I was diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis, and I can never say enough about how he counseled me and helped me get better. The pain has gotten a lot less in his care. I am really glad I visited him.
