Scott Herbert

My experience with Dr. Herbert was great. I had 3rd stage colorectal cancer in 2010. After surgery I went through 6 months of chemotherapy. I was in his care for 5 years. All went well.

Not a proactive Dr. Transferred my care to UNM without my permission but was a unknown blessing as UNM is much better by far.

Scott Herbert engaged in a grossly flawed treatment protocol, did not do follow up head and neck scans, did NOT provide informed consent, in fact he ignored his vital legal obligation to inform his patients - especially involving life and death treatment plans and risks - and he was not knowledgeable about current treatment therapies. I would give anything to have NOT met this doctor. One of the main reasons individuals do not move to Santa Fe or are leaving the area, is the abysmal lack of quality health care. The oncology care in Santa Fe is astoundingly poor. Scott Herbert's lack of knowledge, his failure to keep patients informed, a vital patient legal right, and his complete failure to address a proper treatment protocol was indescribably devastating. He ignored his crucial legal duties to provide informed consent and plays God with patient's lives. The legal actions filed against Christus are horrifying to read, how unconscionably patients and their families have been treated. Run, do not walk, to be treated at another cancer center. The community deserves far more.

I went to Dr Herbert after I was diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer. He recommended a drug to protect my fertility during chemo that you have to start the week before chemo. I was 38 at the time and did not have kids. I agreed but he failed to order the drug to protect my fertility, refused to respond to my calls or that of a fertility specialist I saw. I didn’t see him again until it was too late. Then he implied it didn’t matter because I wasn’t married. Abhorrent man.

Scott Herbert doesn't inform his patients of all treatment options, he fails to order vital tests and ignores the results of other tests. He keeps patients and families in the dark and plays God with their lives. He doesn't like patients getting second opinions and isn't up to date on new treatment options. We are devastated to have ever heard this man's name.

Dr. Scott Herbert, MD, has been my Dr( oncologist ) , since 2014. He has explained any questions, or concerns, about my situation in other words ; treatment: He is very kind and considerate, and patient. I highly recommend him to everyone!

We have been dealing with Dr. Herbert for over four years for my wife's CLL. We hav found him to be the epitome of a caring , concerned and knowledgeable Doctor. We have never had a finer relationshipt with a DR. and I have had over 15 operations. We could not have had a better relationship.

Too busy with his administrative and outside business activities and not caring for patients. Gives misinformation or no information to patients involving life and death issues. He is not fully informed about treatment plans. Go elsewhere for treatment.

He is incompetent. His credentials are marginal, his medical amd legal breaches are Appalling. Santa Fe desperately needs more qualified oncologists, cancer is the leading cause of death in Northern NM. If the cancer doesn't kill you, the Dr's will.
