    Because he's been my doctor since 2003 and he has been the only doctor to be able to treat me. He even looked after my mother for treatment. When no one else could cure me I went to Dr. Benavides and he was the only one who helped me. After that all of my family continued to only go to Dr. Benavides. Even his assistant are very kind and respectful.
