Lots of MDs have lost their ability to offer great bedside care. Not this one, he was attentive, patient, and answered all of my questions. What a calm presence! And I actually felt listened to. The staff was also super helpful because they helped me track my data online and set up the portal access! Great overall visit!

I’ll admit that I was a little weary about seeing a male obgyn but I’m glad I took the change with Dr. Gavino. He made me feel really comfortable, let me know everything he was doing.

I will see Doctor Michael again!
Thank you.
October 5, 2015Diana Y.Verified patient
The office was very nice, the woman at the check- in desk was attentive and kind. I liked that they didn't have me put on a gown for the appointment so I could talk to the doctor dressed. The medical assistant was nice. Dr. Gavino, was a nice doctor he explained everything that was going on very well, answered questions and set a plan for next steps and follow up. I like that the office embraces technology. I also really like that they have weekend hours, this is really helpful. I did feel like the doctor rushed a few of my questions saying we can talk about them in the future instead of answering them. I will most likely continue to see Dr. Gavino.
