Born and raised in Queens, New York, "Benítez", started his journey into medicine as an emergency medical technician working for the FDNY. Wanting to further his medical expertise he continued to work as an EMT while earning a bachelor of science and master of science degrees in medical biology from Long Island University-CW Post. Upon the completion of his graduate degree, Benítez continued on to studying medicine at St. John's University's Physician Assistant Education program.
Since 2007, Benítez has been nationally board certified and is licensed in the state of New York as a Physician Assistant. He has a solid background in Internal Medicine having worked both independently and collaboratively with internists and specialists in treating patients with all types of acute and chronic medical conditions. He has also worked in the field emergency medicine as a PA in the emergency room of Mary Immaculate Hospital and St. John's Hospital of Queens, prior to their closure.
Always wanting to expand and provide new ways of promoting wellness to his patients, in 2011 Benítez started incorporating spirituality and healthy eating into his treatment algorithm, which was met with an amazingly positive response from those under his care. Realizing that part of one's wellness includes good self esteem and feeling youthful, Benítez completed aesthetics training and began offering non-surgical facial rejuvenation treatments to those looking to refresh their look and preserve their natural beauty. Today, Benítez holds an ever growing patient/client base seeking aesthetic treatments that include cosmetic neurotoxins, dermal fillers, platelet rich plasma (PRP) and more. Pleased with his conservative approach to aesthetics treatments and his natural and "Not Frozen" style, his patients/clients have dubbed him a Facial rejuvenation <url removed> Benitez is also fluent in Spanish.
