About Me

I have provided family practice-based medical care to all generations in our practice for the past 20 years. Sometimes an understanding of a family's dynamics can complement their medical care beyond the science.

I've spent my entire educational career in New Jersey, earning my medical degree at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (UMDNJ) in Stratford and completing a residency at St Luke's Warren Campus.  I am board certified as a Diplomate of the American Board of Family Medicine.

Besides general medical practice, I have an interest in minor office and dermatological procedures.  

I enjoy family vacations and personal time whenever possible.

Education

Rowan University School of Osteopathic Medicine, 1996
Warren Hospital, 1996 - 1999

I was also told to drink plenty of fluids, fruits and to get some rest. As of today I am getting better each day.

Dr. Bautista is always very thorough and knowledgeable. Excellent provider!

12/01/2023
The entire visit was perfect. I had not seen a doctor for overall checkup in 20 years because of issues I had with doctors. I held off even looking for a doctor for over a year when a wellness check through work showed some bad items that should be checked finally I did some research with help of Cigna and the top 5 doctors that came up were all associated with st. Luke's. So I decided on doctor Bautista because of comments from other patients on how he deals with patients and boy did I choose correctly first time seeing him he made me feel comfortable talked to me like a human and gave me 100% attention with total courtesy. My wife who also has not had a primary care doctor in many years is going to make an appointment also to see one of your doctors. I felt so far this was the correct choice of faculty and doctors

Dr Bautista took his time with me and didn't seem to rush to get me out of his office. He explained different ways to take medication I was on. He went over my recent lab tests and explained what they meant and put me at ease

09/27/2023
I have never had a bad experience there.

09/23/2023
Doctor Bautista was excellent and took time to listen and review my health concerns. I wasn't too thrilled with my last doctor. Dr. Bautista ordered a new set of labs and calmed my fears that I had about my health and ordered labs to be done so he could review my progress. I was going to leave Village but my son's pediatrician urged me to see Bautista and I am glad I listened. While Dr. Bautista and I might not agree to a mix of holistic medicine with prescription medicines, he was respectful and understanding of my stance and made every effort to speak with empathy and care. I like the man and the effort he put into his first visit with me. I didn't feel rushed or dismissed and this doctor didn't put the fear of death in me and had me scared for my life. Well, we'll see what happens at my follow up with my new lab tests results how things progress. I am keeping my fingers crossed that I don't have any issues like I previously did with the other doctor.

09/22/2023
My original doctor (Dr Grubb) retired came in to use you as provider from recommendations of others .Everything was as good as they said very pleased with my visit thank you for being so helpful and nice

Nothing bad to say about St. Lukes Village Medical in Phillipsburg,NJ. The staff and doctors are always friendly. They never make you feel that you are not wanted or never not, not willing to listen to what you have to say. Very great place to go for any health issues or problems. Great family doctor that I have been going to for 25 years, as well as my family. Thank you Village Medical for always being there for my family and I. Greatly Appreciated!
