Annual Well Woman Exam

Dr. Evangeline Ramos-Gonzalez is an excellent Care Provider. Her kind and respectful bedside manner is very appreciated. She exudes a professional experienced attitude and makes me feel comfortable and proud to be under her effective and efficient care as I transition into my senior years... Dr. Ramos-Gonzales is an outstanding Women's Heakth Professional. I have had several women's health doctors over my almost 70 years and Dr. Evangeline is by far the most caring, respectful, and kind care provider I've had. I am a transplant to San Antonio following my retirement and finally I feel I am being sincerely "seen, cared for and appreciated" by my Women's Heakt Provider! Dr. Ramos-Gonzales is Latina and a member of my culture, so her cultural competency is an boundless benefit to my care! I wish Dr. Ramis-Gonzales continued success and necessary protection for Ob-Gyn providers who must now navigate the threat between appropriate medical care of women and the political aspects that can compromise their hypocratic oath and standards of care as described by our government.
