Clinic Overview & Credentials
At first glance, Gentle Gynecology's 11 consecutive "Best OB/GYN in Weston" awards might seem like typical medical marketing. But spend time reading through patient testimonials, and a different story emerges - one of remarkable consistency in both medical excellence and genuine patient relationships.
In an era of corporate medicine and revolving-door practices, Dr. Michael Augustino has maintained a deliberately different approach. As Karin Alexander, a 35-year patient explains: "I was lucky enough to find such a wonderful doctor who has always been courteous and professional." This isn't just patient loyalty - it's a carefully cultivated medical philosophy.
Dr. Augustino operates as a solo practitioner by choice, believing that gynecological care requires a uniquely personal doctor-patient relationship. "Being the only physician allows me to provide truly personalized care to each patient," he explains. This approach has attracted patients like Tasha, who regularly flies in from Georgia: "His turnover rate is nonexistent - I've seen the same kind and friendly faces since the start."
While the practice offers comprehensive women's health services, their approach to hormone therapy particularly stands out. Their bioidentical hormone replacement therapy program is notably sophisticated, using molecular-level matching of estradiol, testosterone, and progesterone to address perimenopause and menopause symptoms.
"Dr. Augustino understands it's not just about the quality of care," notes long-time patient Janice V. "He listens to the patient. We know our bodies, issues, and the results we would like to achieve."
Perhaps the most telling indicator of Dr. Augustino's impact is the multi-generational nature of his practice. Griselda L. shares: "He delivered my youngest daughter - she's 22 years old now and he's her doctor too!" This pattern repeats throughout patient testimonials, with mothers consistently choosing to send their daughters to the practice.
K Scott, an 18-year patient, elaborates: "He is very easy to talk to, knowledgeable, and always takes the time to answer whatever questions I may have. I always recommend Dr. Augustino to friends and family and will have my daughters see him in the future."
The practice's approach to preventive care is particularly thorough. Beyond standard well-woman exams, they offer:
The atmosphere at Gentle Gynecology differs notably from typical medical offices. As Miranda's World, an 11-year patient, describes: "You will never find a doctor or staff that you can call family. They always welcome you with a smile and make you feel at home."
This isn't accidental - it's the result of careful staff selection and retention. Multiple patients note seeing the same faces year after year, creating an unusual level of comfort and trust.
While the solo practitioner model offers significant benefits in continuity of care, it does mean that appointment availability may be more limited than at larger practices. Additionally, patients seeking the latest technological innovations might find that larger medical centers offer more cutting-edge equipment.
However, for women prioritizing personalized care and long-term doctor-patient relationships, these trade-offs appear well worth it. As Lys, another long-term patient puts it: "Most women know how hard it is to find the right doctor when it comes to gynecologists, and I cannot express enough how great Dr. Augustino and his staff are."
The practice's remarkable 30-year track record, maintained through significant changes in healthcare delivery models, suggests they've found a sustainable approach to women's health care that continues to resonate with patients across generations.
