About Me

Hi, and welcome to my Web page! My name is Dr. Roxanne Lucas-Aquino, and I am a physician specializing in endocrinology at the Stockdale Medical Offices. If you do need my care, know that I am committed to working with you to help you have the healthiest life possible.

Biography

I was born in the Philippines and came to live in the United States in 1999. I have wanted to be a doctor since I was a kid, filled with the idealistic view of saving lives and making people's health better. My mother was a nurse educator and she really instilled in her children a passion for medicine. All of my siblings are doctors and I never even really considered being anything else. I have practiced internal medicine and infectious diseases in the past, and when I repeated my training to be able to practice in the United States, I took on a new subspecialty of endocrinology.

About my practice

I strive to keep up with the latest in endocrinology practice so that I can bring members the best care. Through constant dialogue, we set healthy lifestyle goals. I have frequent discussions with colleagues in my subspecialty.

How I thrive

Close family ties and a deep religious faith help me thrive. I exercise for health with a self-directed program that combines Tai Chi, weight lifting, core exercises, and dance. I enjoy photography, gardening, and cooking. Having practiced medicine for many years in two different countries has allowed me to make many friends with whom I communicate regularly.
