Josefina A Aquino, MD

Worst doctor i have ever had.

You must avoid this place!
you try call for an appointment, but you will never have your calls answered and when you leave a message you’ll never have any calls replied.
worst service ever!

Just moved to this area and needed to establish with a new doctor. Dr. Aquino was taking new patients and had a very short waiting period for the initial appointment. Her intern was excellent. The doctor herself was horrible. I have a handful of existing medications that I take, all of which I brought in empty bottles for. She refused to believe, or accept, that I needed to take these. (NONE of which are things like Norco, etc.) I brought in my medical records showing my diagnoses. She argued with me about the treatments. Then she got on her iPhone because she didn’t know anything about the condition I have. She was pointing to the treatment section of the page telling me the meds I take are not on the list. She was pointing to the exact meds I was asking her to refill. UNBELIEVABLE. I got 1 of the meds I needed. I would never ever return to this doctor, not if you paid me.

I was with this doctor for about 5 yrs due to the convenience of the location. Her assistant is rude and likes to talk over patients. I had an injury last year during summer. Aquino sent me for an x ray. After determining there were no broken bones she referred me for physical therapy. I knew there was a larger issue so I requested an MRI. Her assistant told me my request would probably be denied because I wouldn’t go to physical therapy. I was approved for my MRI and found that my shoulder has a rotator cuff tear and a torn labrum (socket). I had to have surgery 2 days ago to repair those two problems. I’ll be off work recovering for a couple months.
