Dr. Cruz is a really good doctor. He listens & acts on the symptoms. I really appreciate him. Only problem is that it takes 4 months or more for a follow-up appointment.
Providence Patient
Everyone at the office was friendly and helpful. Really appreciated the care from the woman who performed the breathing tests and the staff who monitored my walking tests. Reception was very welcoming. Dr. Cruz is always on point and reassuring about my issues.
Providence Patient
This was my first time seeing Dr Cruz, he didn't have all my records because my previous provider at the Everett Clinic didn't provide him with everything he asked for. I usually see a Sleep Medicine doctor once a year for a routine checkup and this was my first appointment here because I just moved down here two years ago and my virtual appointment at the Everett Clinic didn't work very well. I am very happy with all the providers I have met at Providence, no problems here what so ever. The only drawback is it took quite awhile to get an appointment because you have to book it our so far in advance but that said, the quality of care I got from Dr Cruz was much better that what I got in the past.
Providence Patient

Providence Patient
This was my second visit with Dr. Cruz. He has really explained to me about my COPD - he had ordered lots of tests, and also changed my medication. I was in to take a walking test - and go over results of the other tests and also to discuss my new med. I will continue to see Dr. Cruz. As far as recommending him - the reason I rated a 5 is because I wouldn't go to someone and say - you need to see Dr. Cruz - but I would relay my experiences with him
