Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Like others who left a negative review, I pad the extra $2100 for a higher level of care but never received even the expected level of care. When very ill, I called the office with no response until I called multiple times. When there was an issue with my mammogram, I heard nothing from Dr B. I discussed my concerns with her and she blamed her ex-husband, the MDVIP program, and her ultra busy schedule. For my last follow-up, she was a no show and still billed me. That was it.

A disappointing experience
I have just left her practice as a result of no follow through. I would take many specialist tests and never hear the results. The schedule the doctor kept was too crowded to fit in personal time. I paid $2000 for the year and had all of two hours visit and one hour physical. She was never available as advertised. The doctor is very competent, but lacks the follow through and feeling of care a patient should deserve. I tried and now I will move on. It was from a visit to Publix, I learned of the seven vaccinations I had not received. Her business is a growing practice, but not to my satisfaction. Thank you, Dr. B. Stay well.

The Best Ever!
Have been seeing Dr Botelho for 9 years now. I couldn't imagine life without her being my doctor. Dr B has helped me through many a crisis during that time. Always look forward to seeing her and Yoyo. I can always count on her to do whats best for my health. I'm slightly hard headed, but she usually gets through to me. In my opinion she's the greatest!

My experience with Dr Botelho has met all my expectations for a concierge doctor. I had an MDVIP doctor in the past who retired and I look forward to developing the same trusted relationship with her that I had with my previous MDVIP physician.
