Cannot say enough good about Dr. Menendez. He listens and explains everything clearly. Answers all your questions. If something is not working he has a backup plan. If there are any issues he deals with them immediately. He helps me stay positive.

He was my second oncologist. My first one didn’t listen to me and just put me on meds without testing. Dr Menendez listened, spent time explaining, did testing, and spent time answering my questions. I’m so relieved I finally found someone I can trust.

I had 2 drs before seeing Dr. Alvaro Menendez. I liked Dr. Menendez at first. He was very attentive and explained everything really well. I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer in 2018. I had to have a double mastectomy. He came into my life after my chemo and radiation had ended as both of my 2 other Oncologist’s had retired. During the chemo treatment I was 1st getting Doxarubican and was supposed to have 4 treatments of it. My first chemo treatment I had congestive heart failure and ended up in the hospital for a week and a half. Then 2 weeks after giving me it, he gave it to me again and I ended up having congestive heart failure again and pneumonia. I was in the hospital another week and a half which was not Dr Menendez’s fault but he knew of my background. I had another 4 treatments of something else which I did ok on. So instead of giving me 8 treatments I only received 6. I would have thought they might have given me 6 treatments of the other chemo to make up for the 2 treatments of doxarubican I couldn’t have but I figured they knew what they were doing. So right after I as finished with my chemo and radiation I acquired Dr. Menendez as my Doctor. ( I should note that the reason I got the breast cancer was due to having Secondary Cancer from having Cobalt radiation in 1987 for Hodgkins Disease that was in my neck, under my arms and the between my lungs. I received 3rd degree burns on the back of my neck and in my armpits from the Cobalt radiation they gave me at that time. It was so bad that I never grew hair back again. Back then that was all they knew so I can’t really blame them.They kept me alive) For the 7 years that I was in Dr. Menendez’s care I went regularly to him and not once was I given a scan of my chest or under my arm where they took lymph nodes out. I would go in there and he’d give me a physical and do bloodwork. I asked him at about the 6 1/2 year mark, can you tell by the bloodwork if I get the cancer back again? He said yes. Well about 6 months later I was diagnosed with Metastatic Breast Cancer that spread to my bones, lungs and lymph nodes. I saw him one more time after that and I said to him, you said that you could find out by the bloodwork if I had gotten breast cancer again and you said yes. Well, after my treatment in 2018 was over I tried taking the 5 year pill your supposed to take and couldn’t take it because it made all my muscles hurt. He tried a few of them and they all did the same thing. So I couldn’t go on them.( I would think that would be more reason to get scanned often. ) He said to me, well that’s if you are on the 5 year pill. I said you never told me that. He said he did but he didn’t or I would have insisted he gave me a scan. If I didn’t insist he should have known to. I would not have cancer this bad if it wasn’t for him not doing any scans. So now I have to have chemo 3 times a month for the rest of my life and I will always have to live with cancer the rest of my life and they can’t tell me what my lifespan will be. They say it could be months or it could be years. I wish I would have done more research before I went under the care of Dr. Menendez.

I don't usually give reviews on doctors. But, I have to with Dr. Menendez. When I was going through this experience. He was the only doctor I felt heard me. He never ignored my symptoms. He told me exactly what was happening to me or he would run test to figure it out. He goes above an beyond to help you. He's an amazing, caring, considerate and attentive doctor. I would recommend him to anyone that has to go through this experience.
