“Dr. Penera was recommended by our other specialty doctor. He genuinely cares for his patients and goes beyond expectations of a doctor, checking in on us frequently even afterhours. He informed us with x-rays and mris what was going on to help us make informed decisions. We feel fortunate to have finally found a doctor we can trust.”
