It was a very bad experience meeting with Dr. Pinto. My mother has Alzheimer’s and we went to see the doctor. He has no bedside manner and is rude. Rather than trying to be empathetic and offer constructive suggestions towards treatment and care, he spent more time telling us why he is considered an expert in the field of Alzheimer’s research. * **** **** *** **** ****** * **** *** *** * *** ****
