Dr. Aguiar is the BEST Dr. around!!!!! I have been a patient of Dr. Aguiar's for 10 yrs now. I couldn't have wished for no one better. She really cares about her patients. She is excellent about follow-ups. She will see you all the way to the end of your problem going with your body. Dr. Aguiar will not stop until whatever is wrong is corrected. I so APPRECIATE her!!!!!

I have been going to Dr. Aguiar for over 25 years. She has always been very thorough on her examinations and she always takes the necessary time to spend with me on any issues that I have encountered through the years. SHE SAVED MY LIFE!! I would not be alive today because of her accurate diagnosis and persistence in following up with special tests. I survived cancer and have been cancer free for over 8 years now and I owe a sincere THANKS to her and her staff. Thank you Dr. Aguiar. Mike Craven

I have been seeing her for years. Love her and she has a great staff. Like it much better now that she is not with cornerstone. Not as rushed.

She has been my doctor for many years, and a family doctor too, wonderful, friendly, easy to talk to, and wouldn't want to go anywhere else. My sons and daughter law that she has treated have felt the same.

she is very good for family practice, great bedside manner, DO NOT let her venture ouside of basic care, she has made two big mistakes with medicines with me. I still like her for general care.

I have seen Dr. Aquiar for several years now. She is a caring and thoughtful doctor whom I completely trust. I can't say enough good things about her.

Dr. Aguiar is one of the best doctors I have ever seen. She takes time with you and tries to understand your needs. Her diagnosis is always accurate and she is willing to look at different treatments as she is not immediately prescriptive. She very much cares about her patients. As a man, I was a little concerned about seeing a female doctor, not because I didn't think she would be competent, but because I had always seen male doctors. I wouldn't give up being her patient for anything. She is my family physician.

I'm over 50, and Dr. Aguiar is the best GP I have had the pleasure of interacting with. She stays up to date on medical 'happenings' and will take the time to discuss your medical concerns. As for rescheduling with her though, I do wish her calendar was open for a longer period to allow scheduling recurring appointments earlier! That can be a hassle for the patient to track. :-)
