We went down a list of items that were pertinent to my medical diagnoses and discussed strategies for obtaining our joint goals. At all times I felt listened to, valued, and respected. She is a North County treasure!

I requested a nurse to call me and was told it would be up to 48 hours to get a call... luckily she did call that day and when I tried to talk some about the answering service experience she didn't care and couldn't answer my questions about medication and was told to call the pharmacy.... back to looking for a new doctor:(

I had to go to Urgent Care today about an unrelated issue. I told the Medical assistant about this. I told her about the dark nail polish, she almost laughted and said there are other ways. She turned the instrument so that it measured from the side of my finger. She said if that didn't work she would put it on my toe. The medical assistant should be fired for her lack of knowledge and for frightening me. I have told this story to many and they can't believe she is working in a doctor's office.

She criticized the Doctor about notifying her of her breast cancer diagnosis...would she rather hear from the Radiologist or his office staff? Should he call her in to the office for a visit while she anxious and having sleepless nights until the doctor can get her in? It sounds like the doctor immediately referred her out which sounds appropriate ...is he supposed call her weekly to see how she's doing? How would the doctor know she changed doctors? With thousands of patients he supposed to recognize she hasn't come back and call her to see why? As for the exams, Doctors usually see patients who have a problem and many times exams are not necessary. Does the doctor need to do a full exam every time he sees a patient? Is she saying that when her knee hurts, she wants him to look in her ears? This woman's comments seem unreasonable, detached from reality, unwarranted and inaccurate especially as they relate to his character. I can't imagine she saw the doctor very often to come up with such mischaracterizations. Sounds like another unhappy person displacing their feelings and deflecting. Her comments are not helpful for others who want to know who Dr. Bettencourt really is. Thankfully many others have chimed in who actually know Dr Bettencourt. I can wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Bettencourt as a caring and professional General Practitioner.
