She criticized the Doctor about notifying her of her breast cancer diagnosis...would she rather hear from the Radiologist or his office staff? Should he call her in to the office for a visit while she anxious and having sleepless nights until the doctor can get her in? It sounds like the doctor immediately referred her out which sounds appropriate ...is he supposed call her weekly to see how she's doing? How would the doctor know she changed doctors? With thousands of patients he supposed to recognize she hasn't come back and call her to see why? As for the exams, Doctors usually see patients who have a problem and many times exams are not necessary. Does the doctor need to do a full exam every time he sees a patient? Is she saying that when her knee hurts, she wants him to look in her ears? This woman's comments seem unreasonable, detached from reality, unwarranted and inaccurate especially as they relate to his character. I can't imagine she saw the doctor very often to come up with such mischaracterizations. Sounds like another unhappy person displacing their feelings and deflecting. Her comments are not helpful for others who want to know who Dr. Bettencourt really is. Thankfully many others have chimed in who actually know Dr Bettencourt. I can wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Bettencourt as a caring and professional General Practitioner.

I am currently recovering from my second surgery completed in early February. I find Dr. Orlando to be knowledgable, courteous and empathetic. My initial surgery took place in December 2022 and I have made a full recovery with full ROM in the shoulder. I am so thankful for this surgeon who finally found the cause and relief from the extreme pain I had been experiencing for more than four years. The staff in his office are super helpful and made everything easy for me. I cannot thank Dr. Orlando and his staff enough. I would and do recommend him whenever I have the opportunity. My quality of life is much improved from five years ago! Thanks again Dr. Orlando and staff!!!

Dr. Sima's office drug their feet for one year before confirming that I needed surgery but his…read morepartner Dr. Orlando was the specialist in that area. You might want to read my review on Dr. Sima. When I met with Dr. Orlando he simply confirmed, chronic bursitis, tear, bone spurs, arthritis. Appointment was set for surgery. I am 63 years old. As a toddler I had had a bad spinal tap which temporary paralyzed from the waist down. I have always had what I call a weak back in that area. But I have never gone to a doctor for it. He said he was concerned that a lot of my pain was coming from that area and he ordered an MRI. The MRI showed there is stenosis which is a narrowing there is mild to moderate degenerative disc. And so it is something that I probably should see a specialist, an orthopedic specialist or a Nuro specialist and have a valuated. But it has nothing to do with what is going on with the hip. All of that was verified by Sima. At the preop appt Orlando said he was just going to fix the tear and leave the rest alone. 20 years ago I had surgery on my spine in the neck area where they had to go back later and do repairs for bone spurs. So at this appointment I said please, while you're in there please look at everything and do as much as you can so that I won't have to come back for more surgery later. I said it very pleasantly very calmly but I saw a shift in him. He kind of froze and blinked a couple of times and he seem to backtrack a little bit. And started saying that he didn't even know if I had a tear. Excuse me I've read the MRI I've heard the report from Dr. Sima. And you Dr. Orlando have stated there is a tear. But he just continue to act very nervous and talking faster and faster and so when I said well what does the MRI say? He froze again, said I don't know that they've even sent it over here. I said well I know they have because I verified that they sent it to you. So he asked his nurse to pull up my report. He turned to the monitor for literally two seconds spun back around and said yes it was as he suspected, all of my pain and troubles was coming from my spine. I was stunned. He basically flew out of the office. And that was that. Everything was still on but he absolve himself of any results from the surgery. That night I woke up in so much pain that I had to call 911. I literally could not even shift my body. It felt like my right hip had been stung by a horde of hornets While I was in the middle of a massive muscle spasm. Hot searing pain and convulsing muscles. They shot me full of Cortizone and lidocaine and pain meds. And sent me home. because I was already under a doctors care and was scheduled for surgery. When I called his office thinking that they were going to speed the surgery up maybe he completely backed out. I believe he had been in a situation where there were other complications and those complications were blamed on his surgery. Because there was so much fear in his voice. So much emotional fear in his voice. Speaking rapidly and so on. He even said you cannot force me into the surgery! I calmly assured him even though I was in a bit of shock that I had no intention of trying to force anyone into anything. I said the last thing I need is a doctor operating on me who does not wish to operate. I just want to know what you suggest I do from this point on. Did he use the words you need to find an orthopedic surgeon and here is a recommendation? Or a neurosurgeon, here as a recommendation? No. He might as well have been a bricklayer. He just kept saying you need to find a back doctor. I can't read the MRIs of your back I don't understand them that's not my specialty. I am a hip specialist. find a back doctor. Well that's about it. I wish you luck in your search for a good doctor. That is my experience with him. Yes I do have an appointment with orthopedic surgeon Dr. Carr. Head doctor Sima's office suggested an orthopedic surgeon back on August 29 or Orlando's on September 7. I would not be sitting here homebound since September 28 when I wound up in the ER. And to give you an idea of time wasted. My first appointment with Dr. Sima was supposed to be last November. Somewhere along the line they called me and said they were going to have to reschedule for January 11. From the beginning I thought I was seeing Dr. Sima. But I would see his nurse. She would send me to physical therapy. The next month she would do a Cortizone shot. The next month they would order the MRI with dye contrast. Then they lost that nurse. And they moved my appointment back another month. They did the wrong hip. The next month it would be the correct hip. And so on and so on until here I sit walking around my house as very little as possible using to canes when I do walk or my little tricycle.
