I had a great experience being a patient for the first time. Joseph was extremely kind and professional and walked me through various options of treatment and felt supported throughout. I know a lot of women would not go to a man gynecologist but I personally could not have a better experience.

Not a bad doctor. He was rushing a bit and I felt like he could've given me more time and explained a bit better what is going to happen but the procedure was done well.

Reply from Joseph Aquilina

I am really sorry that this lady felt a bit rushed. Appointments at Nuffileld are booked for 40minutes and it is very unusual that comsultation would have taken less time. Usually we actually tend to overrun over this time.

Been seeing Dr Aquilina for close to 20 years now and he’s the best. My only criticism is that he’s always late! But I am happy to overlook that as he’s such a great doctor!
