What a pleasure to meet a doctor who takes the time to truly listen to her patient! I never felt rushed with Dr. Amitina as she listened to my symptoms, took extensive notes and devised an intelligent plan of treatment - all done with a cheerful manner.

Dr. Amitina was great - she took a very thorough history and considered all my medical problems holistically - not just the migraines. It did take a while to see her, but she was clearly spending time with another patient, and when it was my turn, I obviously appreciated her attention and thoroughness.

Her treatment for my pain is almost magical. I have gone to seven other doctors who offer similar treatments - hers is the best!

Excellent Dr. She took her time to listen to concerns and immediately scheduled further testing. She is highly recommended.
The staff is polite and accommodating. The doctor is down to earth and excellent bed side manners.
August 6, 2014Mark L.Verified patient
I'm fifty years old, and in all my life, I have never experienced this level of professionalism and care from any doctor! Dr. Amitina is extremely thorough in her examination, and delightfully courteous.
The clinic staff were equally professional and courteous. I am looking forward to my follow up visit.
July 24, 2014Patrick C.Verified patient
I thought it was one of the best doctors visit I have ever had! Not only was I given a last minute appointment, but she gave me a very thorough check up and consultation. She listened and took her time! I have been searching for a doctor just like her and now I can finally say I found her. I would recommend her highly for taking action right away - I am scheduled for my first round tests today - only one day later! Thank you!
May 28, 2014Ivelisse R.Verified patient
Dr. Amitina is a very caring doctor. I came to her with a lot of blood work and she looked through it all and she found a vitamin d deficiency my internal medicine doctor missed. She is very throrough and looks at the patient as a whole. She even suggested some useful supplements to take! She also helped me with my migraine headaches and neck pain that couldn't be fixed after months of physical therapy.

Dr. Amitina's treatment for my back pain was excellent. Of the six doctors I have been to, she is the best doctor I have found for trigger point back treatment. Thank You!
