The facility still looks new, and it is clean, modern, and well managed and run. Everyone on the staff is extremely helpful. This is particularly important for me, living outside the United States. There is a basic monthly charge that covers rent, meals (3 per day, and healthy), and utilities (excluding phone). The charge varies only due to the size of the apartment chosen; studio, or one and two bedroom options. Then there is a variable charge based on the needs of the resident for the care and assistance they require. That level of care is established after an evaluation by The Gardens staff and then in agreement with the resident's family/representative. This is certainly a fair way to allocate charges since some residents...perhaps the older ones...will require more help and attention than those that are younger. And further along, if and when there is the need, they have a memory care unit in the same building, although separated from the residents not yet needing that level of care. Again, I am extremely pleased with the decision to have my mother living at The Gardens. Not being able to visit her frequently, it gives me great peace of mind to know where she is living and that the staff is taking excellent care of her.

I had not been to a dermatologist in 15 years, so I was overdue for a check-up, and already knew…read morethere were some possible skin cancers. After a thorough inspection and 9 biopsies, they found 6 skin cancers, thankfully, all were the more common and least dangerous - still, they needed treatment, which included a topical cream for half, and surgery for the rest. Oasis Dermatology Group has multiple locations. This one is in Weslaco on Oklahoma Ave, a half a block south of Business 83, by the KFC. When you arrive, check in, and provide insurance and payment information, and they will call you when it is your turn. They did well coordinating with my insurance. There are several doctors here, and throughout my process, I seldom saw the same doctor twice. Since everything is documented in the patient file, either one can quickly get up-to-date with your case. Most non-surgical treatment is done here, such as exams, shave biopsies, consultations, etc. As part of the documentation process, they do take before and after pictures of any lesions. With all the work I had done I had so many photo shoots, I felt like a model and wanted the extra lights and a wind machine... (a little humor helps!) Seriously, they were all very professional. I appreciated the options offered for my treatment of the skin cancers. Some were good candidates for use of a topical cream which, not only is less expensive, but leaves no scarring. The cream doesn't work with everyone, and it only worked on half the lesions we tried it on, but it did eliminate the need for surgery on three. If you need surgery, you most likely will be sent to their McAllen surgical center on Buddy Owens Blvd. where they get you in and out quickly, unless you need Mohs surgery which is very specialized and done by Dr. Rick Lin. Mohs surgery removes one microscopic layer at a time to ensure they only remove what has to be removed, and leave minimal scarring. This is essential for people with lesions on their face or sensitive areas. Since it is so time-consuming, requires specialized training and equipment, it is also quite expensive. I am grateful that option is available in the RGV, but equally grateful I did not need it. I'd like to give a shout out to the doctors who did my three surgeries, all of which were successful (the cancer completely removed): Drs. González, Sandrock, and Burningham. They ensured I was informed, as comfortable as possible, and did their work well. Doctors González and Sandrock were assigned to the two surgeries on my back. I was concerned about me stressing the stitches when I had to bend over to put on socks and shoes, etc., but their stitches held very nicely. They did also find several additional spots on my arms that could have been precancerous and treated them with liquid nitrogen (freezing). This treatment is relatively inexpensive and quick. The treated spot usually blisters, then heals. I cannot even tell now where they did it, and the spots are gone. My only frustration had nothing to do with them, but with my insurance company which only allows 5 biopsies at a time. Honestly, I wonder how many doctors would reconsider their career choice had they known how many hours they'd had to invest fighting with insurance companies to ensure needed care for their patients? (Can I get an "amen"?) I highly recommend Oasis Dermatology Group. I know people like me (fair and ginger) are more prone to sun damage and skin cancers, so I was a little surprised at how many non-caucasion patients they have. In the RGV, with the fierce sun we have, everyone needs to get a check-up from time to time. This is the place. Don't wait as long as I did.

Sadly I only found out over a year later that she didnt input everything that happened that day to my husband. All that she put was that he was confused. She left out how he fell back, his hands came up to his chest, his body began to jolt and he stopped breathing. His skin turning pale. Episode lasted almost 3 minutes before he regained conciousness and was confused. She called the ambulance but husband denied it since the episode had already passed. Sadly she does not want to fix her medical notes for that day. Standing by what she said was what happened. She cant own up to being caught documenting false notes.

I realized Monday night that I left my charger for my hearing aids. Tuesday morning, I began making calls to find a charger. After having made calls for an hour or so, I called this company. The lady on the phone, Liz, suggested that I come by for a possible match of another charger. I have Phonak hearing aids and the charger is specific to the brand. Liz suggested that she call the Phonak company and upon doing so, she was able to get me a replacement charger for free as my hearing aids are in warranty. No one from any company suggested that they could help but this lady did! On Thursday, I received a new charger at no cost to me. I travel often to the McAllen area for business and I will be changing doctors to American Discount Hearing.

I would have no problem recommending American Discount Hearing to any friends or other family members.

Etc.). My family all agrees she is the best in the area for eye exams. One family member had a hard time with contact lenses and Dr. Chang was great working with her. The lady who did the screening and initial testing for glaucoma, etc., was also very friendly and thorough. The ladies at the reception however could use a refresher on customer service. They did not greet me or others I noticed as we arrived. They looked like they really didn't want to be there or help. Perhaps I just caught them at a bad time. The day I went the office could have been managed better. While I had an appointment for 1 PM and arrived 15 minutes prior, I did a lot of waiting. They took me back on time, but it was 3 PM before I got out. The frames are all name brand and expensive, not well organized. If you're in a hurry, you might want to go somewhere else. However I felt it was worth the wait and the lack of professionalism from the front desk to be seen by Dr. Chang. I have tried several other places in town over the last 18 years. Some others have nicer looking buildings and perky people, but she is the best I have found. Prices are reasonable too, and some insurance is accepted. I do recommend Nolana Eye Center for eye exams but I go elsewhere to actually buy my glasses. The office is part of an older strip mall. Rather dated, a little dark with wood paneling. There is a private parking lot and it's in a great location on Nolana Ave.
