Dr Bentrem and his Oncology team arrived shortly after I was taken to wait for him.. He was professional, knowledgeable, polite and I felt comfortable with questions he asked. He thoroughly explained my medical situation and provided a large picture which assisted with my understanding. The appointment ran smoothly with a recommendation for new tests prior to next appointment, when scheduled.

Dr Bentrem may be brilliant, but came across as bumbling and unprepared. I worked to make sure my scans were sent over beforehand, and had to inform him mid-session that I already had the scan he was wishing for; he just hadn’t looked at it. If that’s his approach in the operating room, I’m not sure I trust him.

Dr. Bentrem was very professional, and encouraged questions during the visit. He explained options and future monitoring of my diagnosis with annual MRI studies. I would recommend Dr. Bentrem.
