I have been seeing Dr. Pinto since she has been at Creditview Medical. Trust her more than I trust myself. She also looks after my kids and my grandkids. At 72 I obviously have had issues, all of which Dr. Pinto has helped me handle with nothing but honesty and professionalism. Highly, highly recommend her. I have also sent friends to her and with how hard it is to get a family factor, Dr. Pinto has been nothing but helpful. Again highly recommend Dr. Pinto.

I rush my son to hospital several times as he was gasping for air at night. I mention to Dr pinto. She said it was nothing. After I took my son multiple times hospital suggested to see specialist. They even arrange an appointment but asked for Dr pinto to sign the referral - she wouldn’t help us, I said if specialist saids my son doesn’t have asthma then great but if does he needs treatment. I left the referral letter and when I call a week later it was still not signed and she left on vacation. By the time she would of been back to sign my son would of missed his appointment with specialist. Another Dr from her office signed as she saw it was important for my son to see the specialist. The specialist confirmed and provided treatment for my son. He is doing well thank to the specialist not Dr pinto.

I've thought long and hard about leaving a review for Dr. Pinto, as she was a huge factor in the trauma and PTSD I've had to deal with since losing my baby last year, but I think it's important to share.

I didn't see Dr. Pinto for very long, and at the start, everything was perfectly fine, other than her abrupt nature. And then I got pregnant during a pandemic. Once we switched to phone appointments, I had to track her down for every little thing. She'd tell me she'd send out requisitions, and I would have to follow up several times before receiving them. I needed a referral for my daughter, and again it took several follow-up calls to get it. When an abnormality was found on my ultrasound, she called my husband because she thought I'd be too sensitive to hear the news (dismissive and condescending). When she couldn't get in touch with him, she called our family, who also saw her as a doctor, thus going against doctor-patient confidentiality. I would have liked to approach my family once we knew something was actually wrong, as well as on my own terms. My entire family knew something was potentially wrong with my baby before I even heard from her. I also found her to be an alarmist. Her first reaction was to tell me that something was 100% wrong with my baby, whereas when I spoke to the other doctors, they told me there could be any number of reasons for the abnormality on the scan. Once we lost the baby, she told me my husband would be having a harder time than I am. This is not to dismiss my husband's grief, but only to say that she completely cast mine aside and didn't factor in the trauma my body and mind were put through since I was the one not only carrying the baby, but who had to get a D&C. It also didn't make sense considering she didn't believe I could handle the news of the abnormality only a few weeks earlier. The second she said those words to me, I knew I needed to find a new doctor.

My husband is currently still seeing her, as he had been a patient with her longer. It's frustrating to see that she hasn't changed. He recently pulled his back really badly, and when he called to get a prescription, she "forgot" to send it to the pharmacy, so he had to not only follow up with her, but wait in agonizing pain. She has also repeatedly said to his face that he's "getting fat," or "what happened to you?" She told him to keep an eye on my one year old daughter's weight, who has shown no signs of being overweight, because we "don't want her to turn out like Daddy." Yes, as a doctor, she should be aware of my husband's then-weight gain. But to put it this way is unacceptable.

Do NOT go to this doctor if you're looking for someone with some sensitivity, compassion, kindness, or even any sense of urgency. She is dismissive, condescending, and rude. She will treat you like a burden and belittle your feelings. I often left feeling patronized. I'm so upset I left my own doctor, since I wanted us all to have the same family doctor. To say the health care I've received since has been an improvement would be an understatement.

I love her! She is straightforward and abrupt which I appreciate. She doesn't sugar coat anything. She always has the time to see me and never rushes the appt. She listens and gives a professional opinion. I completely trust her and value her directives.

The most insensitive female doctor I have ever met. I expect it from male doctors but wow. No doubt she knows what she is talking about but she is extremely degrading and dismissive. She made me feel as though it was my fault for getting an STI, proceeding to not take care in administering a pap smear while lecturing me about condom use (I was 22 at the time, fully aware of safe sex and practicing it). She continued to shame me in that appointment by getting uncomfortable and angry when I began to tear up at her mean comments, and then when I asked about a lump on my breast, asked me why I am so thin and said "oh yeah its because you don't eat!" Nothing but professionalism and respect...

Treats you like your wasting her time. Dismisses problems. Doesn't help refer you to a specialist even though you are wheelchair bound because you have a broken foot but she doesn't want you too see foot specialist. Wants to vaccinate patients with all the vaccines for no reason eventhough they tell her they already got vaccinated and they are only here to discuss about a minor skin issue.

Very knowledgeable and caring doctor. She listens to your health concerns and after examination and much reflection she then offers her professional opinion along with her recommandations. If in doubt she will not hesitate to recommend testing or refer you to a specialist. I highly recommend Dr. Pinto.

I have been seeing Dr. Pinto for many years. Attentive, consistent, knowledgeable, and really does attend to my concerns. I have had many, many doctors over the years and I will put Dr. Pinto at the top of the list. Highly recommend her.

Rude and treats you like your wasting her time. Dismissed my issue as if it was nothing, calling it not a real problem. She is not understanding and way too arrogant. She seems like she hates her job and only doing it for the money.
