Wonderful experience! I've had personal functional health doctors in the United States and TejoMed seems to equal or exceed my previous experiences at a fraction of the price. So nice to have a one-stop shop for all of my health needs. Navigating a medical system in Portuguese isn't always easy...this makes it easy.
