Dr Hunter using Da Vinci Robot
I was born and raised in Phoenix, Arizona. My dad was an electrician and my mom stayed at home to raise me and my two sisters. We are one-quarter Hispanic on my mom’s side, with lots of Padillas and Reynosos in the family, mostly now in California, but previously from Aguas Calientes and Tijuana, Mexico. I do speak medical Spanish.

I graduated summa cum laude and phi beta kappa from Arizona State University and attended Northwestern University Medical School, followed by OB/Gyn residency at UTMB-Galveston. Upon graduation in 1997, I moved to Harlingen to practice with one of my surgical instructors in residency. I am fully board certified in OB/Gyn, am currently an assistant clinical professor for ob/gyn at UT-Rio Grande Valley and UT Health Science Center at San Antonio, and previously at UT-Galveston Medical Branch. .

Patient Reviews

Overall patient rating for UWH of The Carolinas:

Pellets (Hormone Therapy)

Bethany remembers me and is always so nice and personable

Childbirth / Labor & Delivery

Long wait times to see Dr. when she is with you you never feel rushed and has great bedside manner.

Annual Well Woman Exam

Love Judye and she is always a complete pleasure. I did not like the intern in there doing the actual exam. I have been going to this place for 28 years and kind of set in my ways when it comes to the knowledge of someone giving me my yearly exam. Dr McGuirk is an amazing gyno, but way too hard to get into. He needs to clone himself. Great place for your gyno needs overall.

Priapus Shot® (P-Shot)

Very personable and efficient.

Blood Draw

My overall experience was positive. I have two suggestions for improvement: The physician's consultations often feel rushed. I'd appreciate more time to address my questions, especially as a primary care patient with accumulated concerns over time. The process for urine sample collection could be more discreet. Providing covers for the cups and a less exposed collection area would enhance patient comfort

Annual Well Woman Exam

I always have a good visit with Dr. N! Devasted when my beloved Dr. Castillo retired, but am not disappointed at all in Dr. N! She listens, she, cares and she takes the time to get to know her patients.

Annual Well Woman Exam

Dr. Carroll was very friendly and welcoming

Obstetrical (Pregnancy) Ultrasound / Sonogram

Annual Well Woman Exam

Dr Bailey is wonderful! She never seems rushed to get thru my appointment. She listens to my concerns and takes an interest in meeting my heath needs. She has a great bedside manner and I appreciate her approach to health.

Bone Density

Laura Kennedy discussed my results of my recent bone density scan. We discussed the things I’m doing And plan to do to strengthen my bones so that my next bone density scan in a year will show positive improvement. We will touch base on this after my next scan. She was very understanding that I do not want to take any prescription medicine at this time.

Dr Adams and staff are kind, accommodating and fast.

Gynecological Problem Visit

As with all of the physicians at Adriatica, Dr.Kidd listened to my concerns and addressed them as expected.

Dr. Suba listened to my concerns, tailored his explanations to what would resonate with me (recognized my technical background and then provided more in depth explanation of procedures), and ensured I felt that I was in control of my treatment

Annual Well Woman Exam

My Doctor M.A, she makes me fill comfortable and relaxed with my exam, she gives me details on what the exam consist of. Nice sense of humor, she knows what she's doing
