Listening ear, explains carefully, not patronizing

05/09/2025

04/09/2025

Dr. Padilla is great with my son and I’ve never felt pressured for any unnecessary medication for my son. He gives realistic answers and is willing to educate. He’s just always late in seeing my son. The wait time is always at least a half hour after check-in, and I always get there early.

04/03/2025

He took the time get to know what going on with your health and very knowledgeable

04/02/2025

Dr. Padilla is the first doctor I've had that asks my opinion first, listens to my concerns fully, and makes decisions that align with my requests. He has always looked for the root of the problem, not just a masking of symptoms.

03/31/2025

Dr. Padilla was amazing! He was super friendly, spent the time to get to know me, and really tried to understand what was going on. He went above and beyond and too extra time to hear my concerns, address my concerns and provide actionable steps for what to do next. He was a very genuine person who showed he cared about my health and well being. I would recommend him to anyone that needs a doctor. Thank you for your time Doctor!

03/22/2025

I initially believed this doctor took a proactive approach to patient care, but my experience over time has shown otherwise. When I expressed a preference to explore underlying causes before starting medication, my concerns were met with frustration rather than support. Despite multiple visits for ongoing health concerns, key factors that could have explained my symptoms were not thoroughly explored. A simple test later revealed a significant issue, yet there has been no follow-up or plan of action.

03/11/2025

I appreciate Dr. Padilla’s advice and enjoy talking with him. He is the only reason I continue to come to South 31.

03/03/2025

I feel listened to and deeply considered. He cares not about getting me in and out or slapping a bandage on a symptom but what I'm experiencing and how to live the best according to me.

03/02/2025

Because he cares he goes beyond to help explain and is there for me he has blessed me and walk me through everything and I feel much better he is a great great Doctor

02/26/2025

I like the fact that Dr. Padilla really listens to my concerns. He also tries to figure out the most effective noninvasive plan of treatment.
