My office experience before and after surgery has been the BEST. Dr. Aguila, Tina and Jackie are always helpful. They will answer ANY questions at anytime. It is always a pleasure to see the Doctor and Staff.

I just want to thank Dr. Aguila, Tina and Jackie for all that they have done for me. As many doctors as I have ever been to I have never experienced such a warm welcome and patient staff. Tina and Jackie are a great team they try to accommodate your every need, answer any questions and lend an ear when you need to talk.

It's comforting that you treat us more like family rather than patients before during and after the surgery. Dr. Aguila is the opposite of most doctors he is sincere kind "funny" and patient and no question is too silly to ask. The kind way he took care of me the day of surgery and after is beyond words. His kindness continues during follow up appointments and fills which I have had my first. I was terrified but between Dr. Aguila and Tina they both made me feel at ease and comfortable.

Thank you Dr. Aguila for saving my life!
