Patient Testimonials
“On my first visit, 9/6/22, Dr. Botelho entered the exam room without a medical assistant. It was just the two of us in the office. He looked at me and said, "Are you Paranoid?" I said something like I wasn't before he said that, now I'm not so sure. He smiled, and I said "No, I'm not Paranoid". He then left the room and returned with a medical assistant. After that he said he couldn't do anything for me until I got copies of my spinal MRIs. I said I had the reports he said he wanted the images. I finally got the MRI images he asked for at my last office visit with him in December 2022 in which I was accompanied by my Caregiver Brenna. Dr Botelho came in with an office assistant and said he had looked at the MRIs and didn't think they looked "that bad" . I have a history of two Lamenectomies for severe stenosis in Lumbar area, two compression fractures in my thoractic area, and stenosis and a bone spur and in my cervical spine. I then told Dr. Botelho that I have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and that I have two types of pain. He said that pain was not a symptom of EDS. I told him that there are NIH articles and other web sites such as Mayo clinic that say differently, he flatly disagreed with me and said that pain and EDS are not associated what so ever. Then he said he didn't think he could help me with anything, and I walked out of the exam room”

“I was very uncomfortable with this person. He would put me down, saying I'm just seeking drugs. Botello labeled me as a drug addict. His whole med team looked at me in a rude way. They didn't help the matter. The Dr. called me a very bad kind of person. Then he turned and walked out on me. The assistant did so as well. Leaving me alone. There was no attempt to go foreword. I've never been treated so rudely in my life. He's not a very good person!”

“Seems caring and listens. Explains options well. Unfortunately it seems suddenly he is no longer there. They have no replacement for him. I am upset with Adventist for leaving me without a doctor.”
