In the end, I got the information I was hoping to learn but was made to feel uncomfortable and defensive. Disappointing because I come to appointments to listen, learn, and be part of the conversation about my health.
""Provider"" is such a cold detached description of someone who is, I think, actually sympathetic but is not allowed time to engage. So far I have only seen Dr. Ponce for a total of 90min over 3 years so how could she know her patient.
Again, I feel very fortunate to be able to have found Dr. Ponce and her staff.
Awesome gracias
Thank you for your help
Very committed and concerned for my health issues.
Take the time to answer all questions and concerns
I am very pleased to have Dr. Ponce as my new PCP.
Kind, understanding and proactive.
Great job 👏
She has been there for me every time I need assistance.
Excellent doctor
Your scheduling department is to slow to respond and your parking lots should be marked. There are no problems with parking at the Pojoaque center, but the parking near the infusion office (for osteoporosis) is a disaster. It needs signs to keep us from getting lost when trying to get back to our car. Smith's and Albertsons grocery stores do a much better job.
The eye witnesses in the waiting room were not necessary. I don't need a building to fall on me. I had a busy and difficult day.
Thank You!
Thank you doctor
Dr. Ponce is open-minded.
Excellent
Will always return to see her!
I felt very comfortable.
Please add more time especially for older (age) patients. I'm almost 80.
I hope and think she cares.
Everything is always very good. Dr. Ponce is a great physician.
Thank you
Very professional
Give more time for BP to stabilize. After removing shirt and walking to the clinic I think BP is elevated and not a reflection of advice from manufacturer written advice to use BP recorders. Five minutes of rest prior to measurement. I notice at home a 10-20 point difference upon such exertion.
Dr. Ponce is thorough and followed up on the results of tests requested by outside providers.
Allow more time for visits.
Provider is very caring
She is a GREAT doctor. Listens to what I have to say and answers all my questions.
I must admit I was late but the time was rushed and I felt like an inconvenience
From the time I enter the office to the time I leave I am treated with respect and kindness
30 minute office visits are not enough when there are issues to discuss. My biggest concern is a Doctor who does not have the time to listen to my concerns and history as I feel it is vital to get adequate treatment as many health problems are interrelated.
I am still awaiting a callback to discuss my reason for cancelling or attempting to cancel my appointment..
Thanks!
She always treats me with concern and respect.
I am grateful I have a good doctor.
Very satisfied with both Doctor and assistants
Provider may want to ask if there are any other issues before leaving and maybe set up a different appt for it.
Take your job more seriously and with more care
In all the years one of our family has had to be in the hospital it was the most pleasant and helpful experience.
I believe this doctor likes her work and is willing to attend to the patients with care.
I liked that she was concerned about my overall well being not just going through a checklist of questions and be done like others do. I have a follow up to start the complete process for my needs. Gave great recommendations to start with.
Just good.
Very satisfied
Very professional and compassionate
She makes you feel like a number rather than providing comfortable patient/provider care.
Very fortunate to have her as my provider
Looking forward to a long term health care provider.
She was very thoughtful.
Dr. Ponce is very thorough in the care for her patients. She covers everything that may play a part in my overall health.
I would recommend her to everyone
I appreciate the quality of service I received.
Extremely patient and very attentive.
Continue to recommend their services.
Very good provider
Half hour appointments really concern me!! A visit to the doctor shouldn’t be considered “beat the clock” especially for a health physical
I have none.
Thanks for your wonderful services!!!
Thanks! satisfied with my medical issues
She needs to spend quality time with her patients. Maybe schedule lightly so she won't be rushed and in a hurry.
I am grateful for the excellent care I was provided.
Liane you are Great ! Thank You
Everything is always great:)
I always enjoy going to your office because every one is all ways so friendly and kind!!
I have always received exceptional attention.
All in all I was very SATISFIED with my Follow - Up visit.
Nurses we’re excited!
Am feeling better about the assistance I need to keep me alive and as healthy as possible.
Ifeel Dr Ponce really cares about her patients.
Very friendly and listen and helpful
Always a positive experience.
Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her
Very good 1st visit
Easy to talk to and helpful and compassionate
Very one is very friendly and informative
Great staff!!

One of the Best providers I have ever met
Respectful and professional.
Need to review past complaints.
Love my doctor wish I had her when I started getting sick.
A very good and professional and helpful experience
I look forward to follow ups!
I like her as my new provider thank you much venancio
??????
all good
On my mychart she does not note the whole story just what she wanted to note and of course higher management will take a Doctors side over the patients! Doctors like this are so uncalled for and should not be allowed to see patients nor have their position as a doctor. People stay quiet and that's why doctors like this get away with it over and over again. I had a relative have the same experience with Liana Ponce. One bad Doctor can make the whole place look bad!!!
She may be a patient caring doctor. I just didn't feel it.
Past experiences have been good just my last visit with the Dr I saw!
See previous comments.
I'm very disappointed and I'm seriously changing doctors
please keep her on staff.
I have difficulty understanding she explains to my level with respect as my sister goes in with me. I love her sense of humor. I wish she would have been my doctor since the beginning.
The nurse that triaged me was not very aware on how to pronounce the medications.
If only the blood test would have been done before the appointment.
The time allotted for patient visits is not enough !!!
Dr Ponce is very easy to talk to and answers my questions in a straightforward way.
I am very pleased with the service I have received. Thank you!
The providers and staff at Pojoaque Primary Care are all very professional and care about patients and their well-being
she is worthless as a Dr. she don’t care about patience
Thanks for the wonderful care and your hard work
We are truly lucky to have a superior health care facility and staff nearby.Thank you for the dedication and hard work you offer us.
Thank you
Dr. Ponce has a good energy about her and is very genuine.
I wish I had her a long time ago
See previous comments...Dr Ponce has been wonderful.
Thank you!
I will recomend the doctor
I was impressed and pleased with the amount and level of care you prescribed for me.
Thank you. I appreciated you showing me you truly cared about my health and made sure everything was completed before I left
Very helpful
For all of you to have a wonderful day. Thank you very much.
