Dr. Aquino belongs to the category of doctors called Gentlemen Doctors. Those of you who are old enough to remember the TV show called Marcus Welby MD, starring Robert Young, will understand exactly how I am describing Dr. "Marcus" Aquino. He is kind, caring, respectful, culturally aware, funny, yet gently stern enough to communicate his message across to the patient. His years of experience and wisdom are quite apparent in his approach to diagnosis, course of treatment, and follow-up care. He makes time to speak not only with the patient, but also with family members, whether in a hospital room or in his clinic. All of our concerns and questions were addressed and clearly answered. Dr. Aquino always took his time and never made us feel like he was in a rush to see his next patient. His staff is also warm and inviting. The "Ladies" always greeted us with a smile, acknowledged and addressed my mom by name as soon as she walked through the door. They checked us in quickly and brought us back to the consultation room as soon as possible. Dr. Aquino and his staff are God sent. Watch any episode of Marcus Welby MD and you will understand how "any patient" should be treated under the care of a doctor with healing hands as compared to today's world of insurance dictated protocols and procedures regulated by time constraints.
