She is extremely knowledgeable, thorough, and has been one of the best Doctors Ive seen.2/2/2026 | BayCare Verified PatientDr. Paterno was outstanding. She reviewed my symptoms thoroughly, examined me, and provided both an immediate treatment plan and a clear path to identify the source of the allergic reaction. She recognized my heightened anxiety, talked me down, and walked me through what to monitor over the weekend and when to seek urgent care. I left calm, informed, and confident. After moving from Manhattan and searching for a strong GP, I feel Ive finally found that level of care in Dr. Paterno.1/30/2026 | BayCare Verified PatientShe was good1/23/2026 | BayCare Verified PatientAwesome
