Santos seems like an ok doctor, but while he likes to boast about his attention to his current patient, he is totally disinterested in the patients to follow; totally indifference to the fact that the next patient is now 45 minutes . . . or more . . . past THEIR appointment. If you go to him, I hope you have plenty of time to WASTE in his waiting room.

Santos lacks caring compassion to save people's lives. Didn't care if I lived or died. Only pulled a handful of blood tests, ignored past MD bloodwork and diagnosis, (my old doctor ran about 15 different tests and assured me she would help me and do whatever she could to find out what was wrong). Men dismissing female patients is an epidemic. These useless humans needs to be fired. The least that should be done when they leave a patient to die and suffer.

Dr. Santos and staff are so caring, patient, and willing to to do whatever it takes to dx their patients correctly. They listen, they offer suggestions for treatment plans and if one doesn't work they will find the optimal treatment plan no matter what. Christine PA and the nursing staff are supportive and helpful. Heide Piccirilli

Have been going to this doctor for about 8 years. Always listens to me never pushes medicine ( like my old Dr did) . Has helped me to almost completely get rid of my lupus symptoms. Great doctor!

I really wasn't happy. I felt like he was dismissive of me, and rude and condescending. I feel like he just wanted me to leave.
