Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Saw her once and midway through the appointment I knew I didn't want to come back. She didn't even ask me what meds I was on. I was immediately looked down on because I saw a nurse practitioner before. Spent the whole time asking me for my life story, getting upset that I couldn't remember exact dates of things that happened 10 years ago and scolded me for using electronic cigarettes when I use them instead of self injurying myself. Made me make another appt and gave no meds.

I would not recommend this Doctor to anyone. She insisted on seeing me for "as long as it takes to get to know me". Unfortunately I do not have the kind of money to go to a Dr. every two weeks as I have very high copay's. She also refused to fill any RX;s that I needed. And if that isn't bad enough she told me that she can only fill 30 days at a time. I need to use a Mail order pharm. She literally told me that if I can't comply then I have to "find another Dr." She is rude and stubborn.

I saw doctor Gavino many years ago. Having been to better doctors and having had better councilors over the years, I believe she is little more than a pill pusher unable to get to the depths of my issues in therapy. Under her care my depression got worse, the side effects from her medication helped destroy my health, and I feel she was dishonest with me about her course of treatment.

I have not seen her yet and it was Horrible trying to make an appointment with her. She does not take Medicare, Aetna ppo and I do not even recommend anyone trying to make am appointment unless you have the money to pay up front. Because that's what you need to do and then you can deal with the insurance to get your money back. RIDiCULES !!!!

Awful in every way. Rude, standoffish, and stubborn. She spent half a session scolding me for being ten minutes late, when I held an appointment card that proves there has been a miscommunication. Recently my sister, who is now LEAVING Gavino's, needed at least some of her monthly refill to make by until her new appointment. Gavino refused out of pure spite. Don't waste your time on this very rude woman.
