I have been seeing Dr Bonilla since moving to FL about 10 years ago and he is truly a wonderful MD. He is caring and attentive and actually somehow is able to find the time to engage and listen In this era of medicine where MD's are pushed to see so many patients that I know it's stressful. He honors the patient's knowledge and opinions yet also shares his medical expertise and recommendations. He is one of the good ones that takes their time and you never feel rushed. If you have the opportunity to see him I would highly recommend him.
