My husband was a patient of Dr. Betancourt, who recently left his practice in The Villages. Because he is extremely knowledgeable and was treating my husband's many conditions we were going to travel to Orlando to continue my husband's follow-up treatments. Well, needless to say (and I hate to) we can't since my husband requires very close monitoring. Hubby's condition started with lung cancer in July, 2000 and being stable until 2010 when he was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma and treated in New Jersey. His oncologist urged us to move to The Villages because of the weather up North. Since being down here he has developed Pseudomonas and B.O.O.P. If anyone is familiar with these conditions they are aware that symptoms flare up out of nowhere. This morning he woke up feeling sick (bones ache, difficulty breathing, etc, etc, etc). Now the reason for my posting, does anyone know of a pulmonologist that is caring, knowledgeable and will see patients when they are ill instead of telling them to go to the hospital or urgent care. I will call my husband's oncologist in The Villages, Dr. Acevedo and find out who he recommends other than Dr. Betancourt. I have to find someone to care for my hubby. Thanks for reading this long post but I don't want my husband to see anyone that is not familiar with his illnesses.
