After dealing with severe stomach pains for over three decades, the doctors were finally able to find out what was causing my distress. It was a twist in my intestines, which was successfully operated on, and I’ve yet to experience any complication, and a month later I need to have surgery again, due to a hernia which was successfully operated on also . After the two operations, I am free of any pain and I’m very grateful that they found what was causing the problem that had me an agony for decades.

Dr. Decena always listens very carefully and never rushes with her appointments. She takes her time and allows me the time to voice any concerns and ask any questions. It is also wonderful that she herself completes the exam. So many physicians nowadays do not even care to lay a finger on you. Her manner assures me of her competence and knowledge. She is excellent!! I feel she is the perfect physician for my needs.
