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
St. Luke's Hospital Warren, 1996 - 1999

Had another awesome visit with my Family Doctor.Lucien S Bautista, DO. My doctor was through, he listened to what I had to say and answered my questions. My doctor was very caring and very knowledgeable about me. He encouraged me to continue to exercise and eat healthy (low salt, less sugar/carbohydrates and less fatty foods). Also, drink plenty of water during the day.

Visit couldn't be better. Dr. Bautista had me get X-Rays. I went to the Care Now clinic in the same building and had them done right after my doctor's appointment. Very convenient! No one needed to contact me on X-Ray results as I received a notice on my phone that the results were in on the patient portal and I viewed them there. Nothing unusual. I'm sure Dr. Bautista will discuss them with me on my next visit as he is always very thorough. Same with blood work I had done a week earlier. Dr. Bautista did discuss results with me.

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 B is the Best. Takes as much time as I need to understand any issues. With an upcoming surgery, he made sure I was aware of all risks and details before recio and giving medical clearance
