Patient Comments (31)
The provider saw me at the time of my scheduled appointment. All the staff listened to me when I answered their questions. They asked further questions for clarification and to make sure they understood what I was saying. They answered all of my questions. The provider did not rush through the consultation.
The Dr. was prompt and efficient. Asked several times if I had further questions or concerns. My surgery and post op went text book well; healing and feeling great. I'm very pleased.
The treatment and attention are excellent, the organization of patient appointments should be improved as they should be aligned with the processes that are already in place so as not to waste a lot of time on distant appointments and difficult times.
The doctor was very professional and did an excellent job with my surgery. I would highly reccomend him.

Amazing provider and great office staff !
I have to say that the medical treatment that I received was top-notch and if it wasn't for the professionalism and the dedication that they had to getting me better, I'd probably not be here right now leaving this message. I literally thanked the doctor for saving my life. He was very humble and I just don't know if I just can't stress enough how sincerely grateful I am and me and my wife and my mom, my whole family's very grateful. Everything that South Coast did.
I appreciate that the Dr. listened to me. Additionally, while in the hospital, he advocated for me to have an ERCP. After many other tests, he was right and the reason for my pain was finally diagnosed.
Happy to have this doctor's expertise
Dr. Huaco and his staff were excellent from start to finish. I would highly recommend Dr. Huaco.
The doctor was very informative, personal, warm and professional
Beyond expectations A+
I appreciated the customer service; I liked everything they explained to me, the in-depth research into my pain, and all the lab tests they did to investigate what was really happening to me during those months. I'm truly satisfied with everything the doctor did; he's an excellent doctor, and I give him a 10 out of 10. He's a kind and professional doctor, very dedicated to his work and making sure everything goes well, 10 out of 10.
Overall totally pleased with my experience.
Takes the time to listen and explain things in a meaningful and respectful manner
I don't think they need to fix anything; they've always been very professional in their work and their attention to me. They are well-prepared and attentive to what they do with their patients.
