Dr. Alberto Aguayo-Rico, MD

First of all, he can barely speak English. I speak Spanish so I offered to continue the visit in Spanish. He ignored me and continued speaking broken English for the rest of the visit. He fumbles at basic medical terms. I do not feel it is safe for him to practice. The New Mexico Medical Board can do better.

He’s personable, knowledgeable and caring. Reminds me of my dad who was also a physician.

I'm a PhD Pres Specialist. On Ritalin 4 yrs for a neuro illness. Alberto said a drug screen is needed. A lie. Screens are for opioids. 2 wks later, he proclaimed I am a drug abuser/ dealer. (Why? He said I was told to do a screen STAT. That's a lie. He'd asked, "Can you do it now?" I said "No. Patients are coming to my clinic. I must go." He said, "Okay" & gave me 3-months of rxs.) Falsely judged, I did a screen next day. Clean. Then a 90-d-retro hair screen. Clean. He did not care. No more rxs.

Horrible doctor. I don’t think he knows what he is doing.

A EGOMANIAC LACKING ANY COMMUNICATION SKILLS, EMPATHY AND MEDICAL TRAINING. HE IS LAZY AND DOES AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE. PHYSICAL EXAM IS ALMOST NON-EXISTANT - NO PHYSICALS - TAKES YOU OFF REQUIRED MEDS. / THINKS SUPERIOR TO ALL & DX WITHOUT EVIDENCE - HX. LACKS PATIENT MANNERS. UNABLE TO SCHEDULE URGENT APPTS. I DO NOT RECOMMEND ! FIND A REAL DR.......! PRESBYTERIAN MUST BE HARD UP FOR DRS. OR MAYBE HAS LOW SALARY.

Dr. Aguayo is an excellent professional! He listens and respects my wishes when we discuss my health concerns. I prefer medicine to be a last resort so he provides alternate choices. I have recommended him to family & they are also impressed!

I found him easy to talk to and informative. He shows concern and empathy with his patients.

Dr.Rico is very unprofessional,he don't care about his parents. He talks to you like you are a dog.He takes people off there meds when they have been on it for years,and makes them go into withdrawals,He don't care about no one. And if you say he is a good Dr. You need your head excammend........

Dr. Aguayo is very good once he gets to know you, his approach is metered, but I think it's intending to produce the best outcome. So far, his approach is guiding me towards instituting a program of care has been excellent and is very, very thoughtful. Super-smart guy that's going to work towards a care program WITH you, and not expressly FOR you. It's definitely hard work to do, because people are stubborn, biased, resist change, and don't take advice well. He's pretty good. No question.

He does not listen to the patients at all. You may go in for reason and he decides what happen. Not forthcoming and paying attention not to mention prescribing meds that you should not take. Acts like awe beneath him and he's Gods gift to man.
