"I am here today because of doctor hormigo very professional very caring and always tries to put a smile on your face A+ thank you doctor"

"My mother suffered from seizures, dizziness, and fatigue. We did not know what exactly was going on, our neurologist referred us to Dr. Adilia Hormigo. Even with a set appointment, we had to wait for over 2-4 hours just to see her. She was so unprofessional and care less that I do not think she deserves to be called a Doctor. If you or your loved one has brain cancer, please, seek several opinions and do not trust one doctors opinion. She did a horrible disservice for my mother who was bedridden diagnosed ELEVEN WEEKS LATER!! with Glioblastoma. Just because Dr. Hormigo could not care less, no follow up from her or her office. Without ANY discussion my mother was given not a "standard of care" for this type of cancer, that automatically disqualified her from EVERY single trial. I learned about it after the fact, she had never bothered to explain our options, even though I was asking a LOT of questions about possible alternative, supplement, keto diet. This woman with a smile on her face replied: "Do not try anything, your mom will die within a year" Cold blood went down my veins. Why is she a doctor? I had asked my next question, which took her off guards: What is the longest surviving patient do you have? Guess what, she could not reply.I can only assume, there are none. Immediately I had asked her for a referral to Memorial Sloan Kettering, where she refused to give us a referral. Stating that my mother will get the same treatment as anywhere else. Lies. I had to "steal" my mother in the middle of winter in a wheelchair, which was just a begging of my journey for this type of travel, from the Mount Sinai hospital switch her primary care Dr to another location, go for the first time visit to get a referral to go to Memorial Sloan Kettering. Only at MSKCC one month later I've learned about the standard of care for glioblastoma patients. I remember that day in tears, hopeless. If you want to survive or prolong the life of your loved ones or yourself choose a different doctor. My mother survived for 17 months against all the odds of Dr. Hormigo, she might have lived longer if diagnosed sooner, or got the proper treatment to get into trial with POLIOVIRUS THERAPY at Duke NC or immunotherapy at some other research hospital. I am grateful to all staff members at MSKCC that made themselves available 24/7, all doctors I've dealt with gave their personal cell phone numbers, and were available to reply. Even when my mother was at home hospice, they still supported me with advice and condolences. Unfortunately, I think Dr Hormigo is there only to help herself with paycheck and not care about human lives."
