Let me tell you HOW I found DR. POLINSKY first. I was looking for a doctor for my husband. We moved to Florida a year ago and we were incredibly UN-happy with the previous practice he was going to. So, I went to his insurance carrier's website where they actually have patient ratings there. I sorted out every doctor that had 4 out of 4 stars in every category. That yielded 4 results. Then I went and started reading on each doctor one by one, dropping them off the list for some pretty good reasons. I weeded out every review that had a dumb complaint like a staff member who didn't bow down to them in the manner they were accustomed to. I searched every review on the first TEN PAGES of Google results for ALL FOUR doctors. Ultimately, it was Dr. Polinsky who had fit the check boxes of what I was looking for that would be suitable for my husband. Starting out with male and a bit older. My husband is 68 years young and he prefers someone who listens, who engages back, and who has a sense of humor. Since my husband has one the best senses of humor, a doctor who "gets him" is a key characteristic. After all that reading, I scheduled his annual physical. Once we got there, we were taken to a room so fast, we weren't even through the paperwork. That was fine since I'd already had a printed copy of all of hubby's meds, his diagnoses, and his medical history. We were taken back by either a nurse or a medical assistant. I'm a nurse so I'm paying close attention to everything she does. Vitals taken. All good. Blood needed to be drawn and I made sure that one specific annual test would be done. Then I watched her do the blood draw. She was either taught well or certified in Phlebotomy. She went straight into the vein with little discomfort to hubby and it was done quickly. She was kind, had a great sense of humor, and took all of the information seriously. She also took her time to make sure everything was entered correctly, especially the prescriptions. Dr. Polinsky came in not long after that. He went through everything. Not only did he listen to hubby, he paid attention to what I had to say as well. Yes, I'm a nurse but I am, for the most part, present as a wife. The nurse part of me is there to fill in any blanks and to make sure all the information on the paperwork (theirs and mine) is all addressed. Hubby and the doc talked about everything. Hubby made his concerns known. Dr. Polinsky recommended a specific type of ultrasound based on hubby's medical history. He didn't push for it, he recommended it and he detailed why he recommended it. We were both a "thumbs up" for that. Dr. Polinksy's knowledge of what the insurance companies will and will not pay for was impressive. Dr. Polinsky did all of the physical examination. He checked everything that needed to be checked. Another test was given in the office. Again, it was something insurance would cover and would give a baseline reading if it came out normal. He covered all of the things Medicare requires for their annual wellness exams too. He's kind, friendly, has a great sense of humor, appreciates hubby's humor, and he was as competent as they come. He talked about the staff in the practice and who hubby might see if he came down with more of an urgent care need. Basically, hubby might have to see one of the PA's in the office. Which is fine by me and hubby as long as they're just as thorough as the doctor himself. Hubby is retired. I'm not. I will return to work in the near future. There are few doctors who I've been seen by that I would say this about. I'd work for this doctor. I'm picky but I would work in this practice. I was watching a whole lot more than just what was happening in the exam room. I could see how the office runs efficiently. It moves like well-oiled machine but also has a large, heaping dose of humanity and actual CARING about health in there. On the way out, we scheduled the ultrasound and hubby's appointment for 6 months from now and off we went. When we were out the door, I asked my husband, "are you happy?" He said he was definitely happy! read more

Dr. Polinski has been the family doctor to my elderly parents for many years. To be fair, I'm sure he is very helpful to many patients however they experienced several significant problems working with him that caused irreparable harm. Once they moved to a different doctor their healthcare improved significantly. read more

Always have a great experience going to Dr Polinsky. Wait times can be a little long, from time to time, but nothing outrageous. He is always super professional and is very thorough. As an RN, I deal with a lot of doctors on a daily basis and it's refreshing to find one that doesn't go straight to jamming pills down your throat. I've been going to him for 12 years and have no intention to change that. read more

Great Internal Medicine Doctor…read more I've been seeing Dr. Mora since 2009 where he helped me out a great deal. Since then he's moved locations to the building down the street, the office is bigger and more updated that his previous location. The staff is REALLY friendly, instead of calling me to the window for my information the receptionist walked out with a clipboard and handed it to me while taking my insurance card and picture ID. Seldom have I ever seen this happen at a doctor's office. I arrived 15 mins before my appointment and was out in an hour and a half, which was great, they don't double book. I was called in 30 mins after check in, the nurse took my vitals and weighed me. The ONLY thing that sucked was the blood pressure machine (automatic one) it has a death grip! Very friendly nurse, everyone knows how much it sucks to be weighed... It's like you're being put on trial, any ways she was super relaxed and chill. I was put in the room to wait for the doctor, roughly 10-15 mins later he came in. Dr. Mora is very thorough and spends a great deal of time with each patient. He's very caring and offers alternatives to whatever your ailment is. Check out is a breeze since everything is digital he had all my prescriptions ready to go as soon as he exited the room.

I was especially grateful that, mask and all, Dr. Logroño remembered me. So did his medical assistants: Rita and Sarita, who our family is very fond of.
