Dr. Richard Lotenfoe, MD

Hello I read all the comments from Dr. Latenfoe and makes me laugh. When we go to the best doctor looking for a personality you like is secondary. He is firm short talk and nothing is wrong with that. If you need a kind social doctor that spend time talking, he in not the one that practice don’t have time to breath is always FULL of patients. His personal, nurse practitioner, secretaries are amazingly efficient and very polite. Personally, I prefer to go to the best doctor accepting him for whom he is. So everybody cool off and enjoy life.

He was so rude, blaming patient for lab results that were incomplete. Would not go to his office again. He pointed the finger at me telling me I was responsible of the incomplete lab results that I did not have any control over it. He needs to find another job not as a doctor.

Great Physician, listen always carefully, good credentials, experienced , and very professional

bad doctor, on the day of the surgery he told me he was going to remove the kidney stone and until I left the hospital, the hospital and I thought he had it, I only found out a few days later that I still had the stone in my kidney and still, The bad doctor asked me to pretend I was in pain after 30 days to be admitted to the hospital and he told me he would have the machine to remove the available stone

His staff is excellent. He is a good surgeon. Both my wife and myself see Dr Lotenfoe

Any knowledge or expertise that Dr. Lotenfoe possesses is masked beneath his horrible personality, lousy bedside manner, inability to listen or show compassion and his lack of basic interpersonal skills.

I have struggled with urinary problems that my old Urologist could not correct. On my initial visit to Dr Lotenfoe he knew right away what he suspected my problem was but to be safe had me take a CT scan, Blood Work, Urine examination and a 24 hour urine specimen. He also prescribed me a prescription which would help me in the short term before my follow up visit. He told me what my options would be (medicine, surgical, etc) but made me relaxed with knowing we were going to do these tests first rather than jump into expensive surgical corrections. Yesterday I had the follow up appointment and Dr Lotenfoe carefully and professionally explained to me the results of my tests, and told me I only had a bladder issue which could be resolved simply with a 30 day prescription. I am happy to say in just two days my problem was cured. For two years I suffered urinating but in just two visits to Dr Lotenfoe I am now cured. Amazing. Using a friendly, experienced Doctor was the answer

Dr. Lotenfoe was great! Had a recent intervention for a kidney stone at the hospital. He was really good with the care of his staff (the medical group). Him and the team treated me with much care and I’m grateful for it. Just recommendation to everyone, remember to always drink more water than you usually to in order to remove all of those stone remains, otherwise it’s gonna hurt! I really like Dr. Lotenfoe, took great care of me. Would recommend him.

Extremely friendly & accommodating office staff. Fast scheduling & problem-free insurance processing. The Dr performed a complex surgical procedure on me & I could not be happier with the results. He takes the time to answer all your questions & make sure your educated. And he's just such a nice guy.

outstanding!

If i could give less than 1 star I would. Horrible bedside manor. He kept asking the same questions and not listening to the answers given. No care or compassion. My daughter went through multiple tests for a specific condition and he basically told her she was faking it. I really wish I had read the reviews before it would have saved me about 2 months worth of bad treatment.

Just had an emergency kidney stone removal with this MD, he is completely incompetent and could care less about the patient. I went to the ER, & was admitted. When I was moved, they forgot to add orders for pain & nausea meds I had been getting. I went 5 hrs before they figured out what happened & Dr Lotenfoe showed up for a consult stating I needed to have large stone removed later that day- nurses asked him to write orders for pain and nausea meds, explaining what had happened... he stood there shouting at us both “that it wasn’t his Job, it was the Attending Drs job”... nurse explained she had put in a call, but was still waiting... “Dr Lotenfoe flat out refused” He also cut me off when I tried to tell him I had passed a large kidney stone, on the Other side, a month prior, stating “It was part of the SAME stone? I had to tell him in the OR to read my Medical Record, because he almost put in a stint which I can’t tolerate & after stone fragments were Huge, not sand. Still can’t pee!

Dr. Lotenfoe and his Staff was very kind and genuinely helpful to me and my wife during my visit on August 28th 2019. My 1st visit was 12-years ago for a Vasectomy which was fast friendly and great experience and that's why I returned for his help and guidance for Prostate issues. I've recommended Dr. Lotenfoe in the past to my colleagues for his near painless Vasectomy procedure. My wife and I trusted him then and it worked out great and now I'm trusting him again with my life. His office staff was very pleasant and went out of their way to assist me.

Worst experience I've ever had with any Doctor in my 57 years on this planet. His bedside manner is terrible. He entered the room and very arrogantly said, "Why are you here?". I began to tell him why and he held up his hand and said, "Stop, I don't have time!". I felt like he was talking down to me the entire time. He refused to give details of treatment he wanted to do, and I got the impression that his attitude was for me to just shut up, he is the Doctor, and to do whatever he says. I asked for some clarification on some procedures he wanted to do, as far as recovery time etc....I asked him what to expect as far as discomfort and asked if it was a painful procedure, to which he replied, "Not for me!". I cannot stress how upsetting it was to deal with him. He doesn't seem to want to spend more than 5 minutes with you. I since have gone to Dr. D'Angelo out of Heart of Florida and my experience with him couldn't have been better. In my opinion Lotenfoe is a jerk.

My brother went to see Dr. Lotenfoe and was given medication for his condition on told him the medication was to prepare him for surgery whenmy brother went the second time the doctor what the doctor told him was completely different form his first visit and whatever he told my brother whats not useful to his condition and only made my brother come out from the office very stressful. This doctor has no compassion for patients. I wouldn’t give him any stars but the site won’t allow it.

Professional office w fast visit time and very professional. Listened to me and answered all my questions and had an outstanding sense of humor. My procedure was quick and easy. This doctor is top notch!

Very rude and disregards patients and families! I would NOT recommend anyone to him! If it were possible I would give this Dr. negative stars!

Total disregard for your time. Made us wait 2 hours for absolutely nothing. The worst bedside manner, uncaring and unfriendly. After making us wait 2 hrs, left in the middle of our time to take care of another patient without having finished with us. Overbooks patients and is rushed to see others that acts like your a bother to him. Do youself a favor and don't waste your time, find another urologist. Awful experience!

I called Dr. Lotenfoe's office regarding shockwave treatment for ED. I was told they could schedule two treatments during my initial visit; and if I didn't complete all treatments as scheduled, I would have to to start the treatments from the beginning. I travel quiet a bit and I probably could not get all treatments as scheduled. Because I had questions about that information, I asked for an appointment to talk to someone about the procedure they perform. When I arrived at the office, the recep

A dangerous and frightening experience to say the least. He immediately wanted to perform an unnecessary biopsy on my prostate, right there in his non-sterile office. The next Urologist recommended a wait and see approach. Now, six months later my PSA has dropped to the high side of normal. After 25 yrs in this field . . . it makes one wonder. Would that I had not fallen for his advertisement. Sorry I sound so negative. But swear on my Father's grave, I have told the truth. Avoid !!!!!
