He is an excellent doctor who always cares about his patients. Dr. Douglas F. Pénate is not only limited to ordering tests and prescribing medications, he also cares about the well-being of his patients and helps us feel better.

Dr Penate seems good at what he does. However, a prescription didn’t get filled last year and this year a different prescription hasn’t yet been refilled. So, I guess I’ll follow up this week.

I started seeing dr Penate a few years ago and his experience and knowledge about certain diabetic medications have helped me keep it under control and it makes me feel safe to see him for this diagnosis.

Dr. Douglas Penate provided one of the worst medical appointments I have ever had. I only saw him because I needed to be seen urgently due to being sick, and my PCP was booked up. He was arrogant and rude and didn't at all take the time to listen to or address my concerns regarding my illness. Simply put, not a good physician. I would not recommend him to anyone.
