Dr, Avella Patino has a very gentle and competent manner…he patiently answered any questions that I had. He also showed me past images and current ones which was quite helpful…then he discussed options and further testing that would clarify the issues. Besides his very obvious skills, he has a great personality putting one at ease, I’d recommend this wonderful doctor in a heartbeat!!!
