Patient Reviews
Oct 23, 2022
Sadly, the practice is closing 10/28/22 & Dr. Cangas will be moving to private practice. We’ve been thankful to receive excellent service for 16 years from Dr. Cangas from day one of my daughter’s life. He knows the patients, remembers them, empathetic, thorough & fun for the kids. Never rushing the appointments, will discuss concerns as long as it takes. NP Marcia McGraw-Houchens is amazing - there just aren’t words to express our gratitude for her help & service the last seven years. We hope to follow her to her next office.
Thank you for sharing your feedback about Dr. Joseph Cangas, MD.
