Desert Senita is a great asset for Ajo. The medical staff is wonderful (a shout out to Boriana). The dental staff is great. And the pharmacy is terrific. Ajo wouldn't be the same with D.S.

★★★★★
Dorothy Porter1 month ago

Desert Senita Community Health Center is a comprehensive facility that cares about our community of Ajo. Emily Murillo LVN did a fabulous job. She is a great addition to the medical team. How fortunate we are to have… fabulous providers like Boriana Nikolova FNP, Tommy Nguyen MD and Dr Herrera who are caring and knowledgeable. The lab, radiology and pharmacy are all terrific. Ajo residents need to appreciate the hard working staff, they now only have two MAs. So Emily MA and Melanie MA plus the front desk ladies will help keep the clinic running smoothly!! Your support is needed to help keep the Ajo Clinic successful in providing all aspects of care for our medical and behavioral health needs.
