Dr. Maria Bernadette Santos, MD

Dr Santos saw my dad in the ICU this am and was fantastic. She was very caring and thorough and had lots of ideas for how to help him with chronic issues we have been dealing with. Have gone to many other doctors who have not been able to come up with a plan to help with his quality of life. I am feeling very hopeful now. Michelle M.

This woman should just go ahead and retire. If you are going to treat people like they are three year olds and tell them that they are too stupid and too naive to get any better, then you should not practice medicine. I know this review probably won’t mean anything to her, but she needs a reality check. I give this woman 5 poop emoji’s. Please stay away from her.

Because she didn't actually read my MRI, or perhaps she didn't understand what she was reading, she missed a tumor that was on my muscle. She said my pain was psychosomatic. She told me I was healthy and dismissed me.

For a, 'Doctor,' who is supposed to understand physical medicine, doesn't know much. Appointment was rushed. I was made to feel like my presence was irritating to her.

Didn't take vitals. Didn't ask for medical history. Made a diagnosis based on my appearance only.

Waste of time. Doesn't take full medical history. Spoke for about 10 minutes and she was paid for a full 45 minute consultation. Doesn't seem to care.

Red flags before I even saw the, `Doctor. 1. Takes only cash, or check for payment. 2. Before I even saw the, `Doc,` woman came out from the back and told me, "She doesn't rx any pain killers. so you won't be getting any today." Told this person that was not why I was there. (So, right off the bat, assumed I was there for pain killers only.) She is very judgmental. I have nerve and joint issues. Yes, I'm a hard case and apparently she not willing to put in the work to help me. Fine, if you can't help me with the tough stuff, how about all the other things i told you about. She's another one of those who shrugs their shoulders and gives up.

Very caring and listens

There are a lot of doctors that don't understand the pain of fibromyalgia or don't know how to treat it. The pain in my legs was unbearable and I was sent to her to determine the cause. I have had fibromyalgia since 1998 and had one increase in the dosage. After a thorough hands on exam Dr Santos increased the dosage and I am free from leg pain. My mobility is decrease because of my Rheumatoid Arthritis but Dr Santos believed my pain and I have better mobility and more energy due to less pain. She sent me to physical pool therapy also which increase my mobility even more. She cares about you as an individual and treats you according to all of your health issues, and I have many.

Excellent Dr. sincere, caring and knowledgeable. Staff also great.

Dr Santos is one of the kindest and caring Drs I have ever worked with. She puts her patients before herself and is prompt with action. We love dr santos.

Dr. Santos treated me when I did not have adequate care at usual rehab. She accepted me to acute care rehab and I recovered. She continued to see me after. Out of all very good and excellent physians I go to she is at the top. She answered all questions, her experience meant she had solutions to my condition. Very positive and cheerful manner. Also, my medical history and present condition is complicated which complicated treatment and recovery. After recovery she has assisted in my further care.

Wants to be followed as if she were God. Did not listen to our needs and resources. Wanted it her way or no way. When we asked questions based on what other doctors had told us she got defensive

Dr. Santos is a joke. She is simply a middle person. She orders tests which she doesn't even read herself. After 5 visits to her NOTHING was resolved and she sent me to a pain specialist who disagreed with Dr. Santos! I asked to try physical therapy first before over $1,000 in tests, visits, etc and was told no I needed to do this first. Needless to say I am now in physical therapy because nothing else worked. I work nights and need later visits during the day on my days off. The latest they've ever seen me was 1:45pm because her office personel said they aren't busy enough to schedule a full day! Go somewhere else because you;ll pay out a ton of money and end up with no results.

She is a very caring and knowledgeable

Took her time in explaining possible cause for back pain, She did a very thorough exam. Wnderful and very caring doctor
