I went to this doctor because I had chest pain. He said it was pneumonia and got antibiotics until I passed out recovering from a pulmonary stroke a week after. I'm on blood thinners with another doctor and out from Mr. Pinilla

This doctor wanted me to pay upfront large amounts of money prior service for a 6 month program he claimed will work help my lower back pain. He dare to tell me even before doing proper diagnosis! He said that If I did not start treatment right away, I was on risk to be unable to move at all as my Lumbar spinal stenosis calcification was getting worst exponentially because my "subluxations intelligent nervous system" was in risk. I went to a different doctor for a regular fee and told me to loose weight and do some simple exercises at home. I go with this new doctor once a year and for the last 3 years I haven't had any pain like the ones that lasted years while going with Mr. Alvaro Pillina

I had a pulmonary stroke but misdiagnosed by Dr. Alvaro Pinilla for having a pneumonia so I was taking antibiotics for so long that it damaged my liver. I went to another doctor and told me I was lucky to be alive after they did a high resolution body scan. Dr. Pinilla is good for basic stuff but simple things might be worst than what they look like.

Excellent staff and service. No waiting in line. I came to see Dr. Alvaro Pinilla for a chest pain. He gave me antibiotics for months but my health never improved until a different doctor told me it was blood clots in the veins

Useless doctor. I used this doctor for months but did not improve my hemorrhoid problem. Went to a different doctor and got better in days!

This doctor told me I didn't break my tibia, but after ludicrous pain took over the entirety of my leg to the point I collapsed to the ground, got xrays done a second time, turns out it was a spiral fracture he insisted was a nerve.

Apparently he is unlicensed but bills and practices under Dr. Montgomery's name.

Shady doctor... He told me that he can take care of my pregnancy during the first 6 or 7 months by doing monthly lab analysis (blood, urine and fecal samples) After that, he would refer me to a obgyn.

I went with him to check my hemorrhoid problems. I got a blood, saliva and urine test send to the labs and gave me some medicine for free (I think they were samples) and within 3 weeks, the lump went away. I was not able to get away with the pain though for all that time. The staff was great (only one assistant, I think is his nephew) I was surprised how efficient he was because nobody was there on a saturday morning. The doctors visit overall was no more than 15 minutes. He usually charges $250 for new patients but charged me only $150 because I had no insurance. Few weeks later, I had to pay for the analysis but I am OK with that because I have piece of mind and know my lab results came out ok.
