Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

The Family Doctor
I've been a patient of Dr. Aquino for over 12 yrs. My parents now see her too. She's just incredibly professional, caring, patient, and kind--everything a doctor ought be.

Top Notch Family Practitioner
I have been a patient of Dr. D’Aquino for over 30 years. I love her! She always listens to what you have to say, considers your ideas and suggestions, and always has valid reasons for agreeing or not. She guided me through a stage 4 cancer of my 23 year old daughter, and again, when I was diagnosed with breast cancer 6 years ago. She’ll always squeeze you in if you’re sick and really need to see her. She’s the best!

Dr. d’Aquino is always willing to listen to your concerns. She is not an alarmist and doesn’t prescribe medications unless needed. I never feel rushed. I have recommended Dr. D’Aquino to several friends and we all feel the same way about her and her office staff.

Outstanding MD
Dr. D'Aquino is an excellent listener and makes the time to cover all aspects of a problem including providing alternate solutions if they are available. As a retired college professor, I tend to come prepared with a list of questions (more than most patients'), and she is very accommodating. Her staff are very professional but also friendly.

One of our Best Doctor's
She's totally professional, but makes you very comfortable by listening to what you're complaining about and exploring sensible solutions. She cares a lot about your leaving feeling better. My wife and I have been going to Dr. D'Aquino for quite some time and would highly recommend her.

Dr. D'Aquino sincerely cares about my health.
I saw Dr. D'Aquino for my Wellness Visit. She has a sincere interest in and commitment to my maintaining good health. She inquired about my vaccination status, suggested 2 important vaccinations I had not received, and directed her physician assistant to administer them for me. She also told me the easiest was to obtain an appointment to receive the Updated Covid-19 Booster at my local pharmacy, which I easily arranged.
