La Dra. Candelario es excelente. Pero me parece un abuso la larga espera de varias horas para que me atienda. Si yo como paciente llegase tarde me cancelan la cita. DeberÃan buscar alguna manera de resolver el asunto. Otra cosa cuando tengo cita y me está atendiendo la secretaria suena el teléfono y lo contesta. Cuando llamó no responden a ninguna de las extensiones que marco. Llamó a diferentes horas y dÃas y nada. Decido usar la página web para solicitar una cita ya que por teléfono no hay manera. Resulta que no puedo solicitarla, porque en las opciones de médico solo hay cuatro opciones en vez de poner a todos los especialistas que hay por pueblo (en este caso Cidra). En Dental la salud de la boca se ve afectada porque la espera por una cita es larguÃsima. Me hicieron la limpieza y ahora en vez de seis meses me dieron la cita para nueve meses. De igual forma si hay algún problema que la doctora tenga que corregir las citas super lejos. Ojalá tomen en cuenta las opiniones de los pacientes, ya que somos la razón de ser de ustedes Cossma.

When you call, use the reception option; it worked for me... they were very kind and helpful.

This is the worst place you can go in Cidra. I spent three hours there for a referral they wouldn't give me. Then they waited an hour only to tell me to come back another day. They laugh in your face and treat you and your children badly. If it's pediatrics, it's even worse. The importance they give to anything is zero. Don't go here; it's a bad place for medical services. They take four hours just to say, "Come back another time. We're gossiping with each other." The lady at the front is always mean; she never knows anything about anything. No one is polite or respectful. They all ignore you when you try to explain what you need; they just keep walking as if you didn't say anything.

The doctor they have working at the Cossma in Cidra, named Eduardo Vejas, is useless. He has zero interest in helping his patients. I came in with food poisoning and a throat infection, and despite that, he didn't prescribe anything, not even for my sore throat. I had to beg him to add at least one day off for my university internship on my medical certificate, since he wouldn't do it. He said if I gargled with mouthwash, I would magically be cured the next day and I could return to my practice. He has no empathy, is a mediocre doctor, and is stingy with prescriptions.

Don’t EVER EVER EVER go to cossma!!! They don’t care about anyone BUT THEMSELVES. All they want is your money, their service is HORRIBLE, the people that work there are HORRIBLE.
