About
Ricardo Longarini, MD
-
Dr. Longarini was born in Boston and grew up mainly in eastern Pennsylvania. When he is not working, he is an avid golfer and tennis player. Dr. Longarini and his wife also support their two college-age sons and two dogs. Being relatively new to the area, he looks forward to exploring Austin and Central Texas.
I was the son of an Internal Medicine/Gastroenterologist, and he was an awesome example of what I wanted to be both in my career and as a man. I believe that if one truly listens to the patient and digs deep enough, that will usually go a long way toward helping determine what is wrong with them diagnostically.
