Dr. Cardoso and his nurses treated me like I was lying or inventing about my injury and the pain on my thumb! He was avoiding my questions and concerns! I think regardless of me coming in as a workers compensation patient I should be provided with the same respect and care everyone else "individual insurance patients" get while dealing with an injury and PAIN!

The doctor's skills may be excellent, but he has a very difficult time showing concern or caring.. I would have appreciated an explanation of what was going on physically with my hand, and a better explanation of the options for treatment..... He seemed annoyed when I asked questions....

Doctor Roy Cardoso showed genuine concern and compassion regarding my condition. It was late in the afternoon but he didn't rush through the process. I really appreciate that because sometimes patients are treated with staff that has no patience.

Dr. Roy Cardoso is very attentive, offers a clear path from pre-surgery to post rehab and also listens to the "why" behind I want to wait to schedule surgery. He genuinely seems to care about people. He's even tempered and cordial.
