This was my first visit and I will go back for follow up. Dr. took the time to explain what was causing my pain and his treatment plan. Nurse doing the work up was very friendly and professional. My only complaint was filling out forms that asked the same questions that I already submitted thru ZocDoc.

I can not say doctor is bad but office staff not doing their job very well. I did appointment for my finger injury and asked them if they have x-ray in office because I need a x-ray for doctor visit. They said yes they have. I went to office wait 20 minute. Go to the patient room and after doctor come to room, he told me their x-ray is not working and he can not say what is the problem on my finger, he need to see my x-ray. They give me another appointment. I wait 1 more week. I went to office again, wait 10 minute, they told me x-ray still not working and need to call me back for reschedule. They never call me back and they charge me $ for doctor visit. I do not take any treatment, I wait 3 weeks with injury finger than visit another doctor. They charge me for my first doctor visit, I paid $ just for hear their x-ray doesn't work and doctor can not do anything without x-ray. Good business style. I am sure doctor is very good person but it was my worst health expense I ever spend.

This doctor was very impersonal. He didn't make me feel comfortable at all. He seemed irritated and annoyed and as a patient I didn't appreciate that at all. Good luck to anyone else who chooses this doctor. He will never see me again.
The doctor and staff were very professional. Dr. Aparicio explain my condition to me where I understood and I left very satisfied and please with the results.
Everyone was extremely nice, the showed genuine care and Dr. Aparico was knowledge and upfront about what is involved and what it would take to care for my injury.

He was very thorough and answered all our questions. His office was equipped to take x-rays and give us answers immediately. He also was concerned about immediate relief for the pain, and was very helpful in that manner. We would recommend him.
