Dr. Ronald Peter Portadin, MD

Dr. Portadin is too fast, obnoxious, senile, and abrupt. My 1st visit, I tried to explain I was bleeding heavy, passing clots, I could see my uterus poking out, I was severely anemic and I was afraid. This man, wouldn't let me get one word in, was really quick like he didn't want to touch me, he kept saying "you're 39! your body changes! You had children! what do you expect! he never did a breast exam. The experience was a nightmare. He told me I was fine and sent me on my way. I knew something was wrong. I returned and asked to meet with Dr Gewertz his colleague (another story) and he did a re-examination and found a uterine prolapse (which he said , You can live with it), and after a endometrial biopsy that I had fibroids but no cancer, I was told. The office set me up with some specialist to perform the hysterectomy. The specialist did not accept my insurance. I told Dr. Portadins office and they told me they could no longer help me with that. I had to find a specialist on my own.… It took me 3 agonizing months to find the right person. I had to start all over again with test etc. I ended up with Cooper University Hospital. I was diagnosed with adenomyosis, I had a full hysterectomy, and I had surgery for bladder prolapse. I was loaded with uterine and ovarian cyst. My new Dr. said everything completely collapsed. Dr. Portadin and his office was a waste of time, insensitive, and negligent, I think both Doctors are physically and mentally to old (80 years old or will be very soon), which put many women at risk. and I don't recommend him or any of his practices.
