  • "I really like Dr. Caracitas. She spends time with you and explains things. The office staff is very nice as well. I was called with my lab results which is really good, it was the day after I had my lab work done., that was quick! The only discrepancy I had is one of the girls mentioned to me to take a vitamin I didn't need. Glad I mentioned it to the Dr., and it was straightened out. Over all the Dr. and office are a great team."

  • "The quality of care at Dr Caracitas’ Solara Primary is the best I’ve experienced, and I’m pushing 60. I really like their app because it contains all of my information in one place, from test results to appointment reminders. 👍🏻 Office staff is hard-working and, from what I can tell on the other side of the counter, very supportive of one another as they assist patients. Best part, Dr Caracitas is attentive, observant, persevering, informed by data, and at the same time, friendly and easy to talk to. That’s how it’s done! 🙌🏻"

She took the time to do a truly thorough review of my medications and medical history and made sure she understood my overall health, not just one issue.

  • "I am a new patient of Dr Caracitas and I am extremely pleased with my experience at Solara Health. The nurse who assisted in getting my medical history was very patient and meticulous in getting all my information online. Dr Caracitas took time to review my records and discussed the details with me. I felt that she really cares about her patients’ wellbeing and gave suggestions in a very positive way."
