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.

Love Dr Santana!

Dr Santana is the ONLY reason I'm coming here. If she ever leaves, I go with her. Please don't make this place an assembly line like the one over off of College. That's all I ask. Let Dr Santana do her thing. Please. Thank you.

I drive out to Labelle from Cape Coral, about a 40-mile drive, especially to see Dr. Santana for many reasons. She spends lots of time with patients, unlike the cookie cutter specialists who do the obligatory 5 minutes. She listens to my history and answers questions with a lot of patience and caring. She takes the time needed to actually get to know her patients, and her demeanor is the best. She smiles a lot. I have seen her twice now and both times I leave her office happy not only because of the wonderful way I was treated but because Dr. Santana is very knowledgeable. Besides that, her office staff is the best!

Was sent to her for evaluation of severe pain in hands and feet. Also lost the function of my bladder. I told her about my family history of MS. To make a long story short as I started losing my ability to walk and. Now needed a walker, I went for a second opinion and in 3 visits and numerous MRI scans and a Lumbar punch. Guess what.....I have MS and because she wouldn't do the work up I never can better only worse.
