    Absolutely Disrespectful and Unprofessional Behavior by the Clinic Owner - Patients Deserve Better…read more After nearly a year of being under their so-called "treatment" (a topic deserving its own separate review), I returned today for what was supposed to be my sixth follow-up appointment -- and it quickly became one of the most frustrating and insulting experiences I've ever had in any medical setting. Let me start by saying: the staff and assistants have always been kind and professional, apparently keeping this place running. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said about the owners, whose behavior today was nothing short of outrageous. As we were leaving, my wife needed to use the restroom. The clinic keeps the restrooms locked and provides a key when requested. We received the key from the front desk and she went to the "Ladies" restroom -- clearly labeled as such -- located in the hallway near the elevators, outside the clinic itself. While I waited in the hallway, Dr. Lemus, a woman I believe to be his wife (who introduced herself as the owner), and a small group appeared in the hallway. The woman walked directly to the same "Ladies" restroom and opened the door, attempting to usher the doctor inside. I immediately told her, politely, that my wife was currently using it. Her response? She completely ignored me, claimed it was her private restroom, and stated no clients should be using it. She repeatedly insisted the doctor go in anyway. Let that sink in: a bathroom labeled "Ladies" -- with no sign suggesting it was private, staff-only, or off-limits -- and she felt entitled to override common decency and invade someone's privacy. Thankfully, the doctor chose not to enter. The woman then went inside herself for a moment, then stormed back into the office to complain loudly to her staff -- which I could clearly hear from the hallway. When my wife came out, I returned the key and told the staff, with the owner standing there, that if the restroom is not for patient use, they should mark it accordingly -- a basic courtesy in any professional setting. Rather than addressing the issue like a rational adult, the owner became defensive, aggressive, and completely unhinged. She snapped that I had no right to speak to her staff, and that she could do "whatever she wants" because it's her business. That comment alone tells you everything you need to know. This was not just unprofessional -- it was a blatant display of entitlement, disrespect, and a total disregard for patient dignity. No matter how much you invest in marketing or try to craft a polished image, it always comes down to who you really are at the core -- and today, this woman revealed exactly that. Her actions showed just how dismissive and disrespectful she can be toward the very people who keep her business running. There are plenty of medical facilities where patients are treated with respect and basic human decency. This is not one of them. Avoid this place at all costs. You deserve better. PS: Reviews does not allow you to post without selecting at least one star, otherwise it will be none.

    I would NOT recommend going to this guy. Even before I met him, I had concerns. I overheard him…read moretalking to patients on the phone, and about patients with his staff very rudely. He seemed pompous. Then when I met him, something was definitely "off." He did not seem like someone who cared- I did not feel safe and i questioned whether he was an actual MD. He is not like any I've been to. The initial intake was $1000, then they took blood work and did not let me know it would be another $1000 and then gave me a $500 list of supplements I should purchase from them. Then he offered a "precision plan" which was $12k for 6months for essentially just checkups. My assessment was that this guy doesn't really care about getting people healthy (regular, not wealthy people) but rather preying on people who are dumb enough to fall for all these costs. I got out of there as soon as I could. After I read the reviews about him and that reinforced everything my gut was telling me. Wish I would have read them before wasting $1000 on a consult. This is predatory medicine for people without insurance.

    Be warned! This doctor and his establishment should not be in existence. Dr. Dinetz has awful…read moreabusive bedside manner. He is prone to making inappropriate comments that leave the patient feeling violated and vulnerable. Moreover, he and his accomplice, Nurse Nikki, have no idea how to draw blood for labs, and blame their lack of skills on the patient. They also drop patients mid treatment if they feel that you are not in agreement to the constant manipulation, power play and bullying that goes on consistently during the patient interaction. This doctor is extremely unprofessional, harmful and should not be practicing medicine in any shape or form. It is a matter of time, but his violation towards his patients will cost him his practice. I absolutely do not recommend.

    This place has horrible customer service. They have a lot of issues in the front office…read moreunprofessional. I been going to them for years and every time its always something. I have seen three of they're Doctors leave. Raul Poulsen, Edward Barias , Edward freeman. I wouldn't waste my time with these people they are very unorganized. I made an appointment for an on line virtual session. I went in the chat and waited in the waiting room and paid my copay. When I noticed that the new practitioner didn't show up. I emailed her a few times and didn't get a response. The next day she finally replied saying my appointment was Canceled due to no Copay. I cant imagine why and how when I have the receipt proof that I had paid it. Lack of communication and could care less for the needs of patients. !!!!

    Very disappointed in the service. Made an appointment with 2 weeks notice, provided all insurance…read moreinfo and when my son arrived he was told that they didn't except the plan and he had to pay $250. He was having a rough emotional time and was anticipating this session for sometime, being that it was a sensitive time, he felt like he needed to pay the money because he absolutely had to speak to someone that day or his mental state may have gotten worse. I called the office on several occasions - always am as wrong service taking a message - to see if there was anything they could do about a possible partial refund or adjustment of the price since it was handled improperly, but no one ever returned my calls. This is an unfair practice when dealing with people who may be suffering some mental wellness issues.

    Short version: This website is a shill. Don't be fooled like I was. Don't pay them a dime…read more Longer version (my story): I searched for a provider of hormone therapy and found this website. It featured a photograph of a grey-haired man in a doctor's lab coat. I contacted this company and engaged in telephone and email conversations with Jennifer Canterino where we discussed hormone replacement therapy. In two separate telephone conversations, she told me she could get a doctor to prescribe it and emailed lab orders to get my blood tested. She emailed me in-depth medical questionnaires which I filled out with my confidential medical history, date of birth, and social security number. I paid her company, Modern Health of America, $175.00 on October 11, 2023 and $375.00 on November 10, 2023 via an anonymous WorldPay portal. Jennifer told me these were for "lab tests." Later, when I questioned her about a promotional email offering complimentary lab tests, she changed her statement and told me the payments were for consultations with "the doctor," who she told me would give me a call at a mutually prearranged time. Michael Disanto called me on Friday, October 20, 2023 at 9:05 AM MST, introducing himself as "Dr. Disanto", and, after discussing hormones, covid vaccines, and my requests, told me he could prescribe injectable testosterone for me. He called me again on Tuesday, December 5, 2023 at 11:39 AM MST and told me he "wasn't licensed" to practice in my state and could not prescribe anything for me but would find someone who could. Suspicious, I looked up his name through the Florida Department of Health and the Federation of State Medical Boards (fsmb.org). The Board reported that his medical license has been fined, reprimanded, revoked, suspended, placed restrictions on practice, or terminated in 19 out of the 21 states he holds licenses. I telephoned Jennifer Canterino who expressed surprise at this information. She promised to call me back in early January 2024. I never heard from her again. I paid this entity $550.00 and did not receive any of the services or products I was told I would receive.
