Testimonials

I would like to give my testimony regarding two situations related to knee surgery performed by Dr. Levi Reina Fernandes.
In September 2024, I underwent arthroscopy with osteotomy on one of my knees and, a year later, in September 2025, arthroscopy on the other knee. Both procedures went very well.
I would like to highlight the high level of professionalism, competence and attention of the entire medical team, especially Dr. Levi, as well as the quality of the care provided before, during and after the surgeries. The entire process was always clear, safe and humane, which contributed decisively to a surprisingly quick recovery from the first operation (four and a half months) and the second (10 days), which was extremely important for resuming my daily and professional activities sooner than I expected! I am extremely grateful to all the professionals involved, both the medical team and the hospital staff (CUF - Santarém), for all their support and dedication. Thanks to them, my quality of life has improved significantly.

After a serious accident, I was fortunate enough to be referred to Dr. Levi Fernandes and Dr. Miguel Brites Moita for follow-up care. From the very first contact, I felt that I was in good hands. The attention to detail, the human touch, the calmness with which they explained each step, and the confidence they conveyed were decisive. Before the operation, they prepared me thoroughly and closely. During the surgery, they demonstrated competence and clinical leadership. During the post-operative period, they were always present, attentive to every little detail that makes a difference in a patient's actual recovery. I had undergone surgical procedures before, but this team's approach was different. Professionalism with empathy, technique with humanity, trust with closeness. It is extraordinary to see two young doctors with such talent, dedication and passion for giving people back something as essential as their health and quality of life. My sincere thanks to Dr Levi Fernandes and Dr Miguel Brites Moita. Thank you for bringing me back to life.

On 10 October 2020, I fell down a staircase, fracturing my tibia and fibula. I was taken to a hospital where I was told I would need an amputation... I asked to be transferred to the CUF Santarém Hospital, where I found a doctor who took an interest in the deplorable state of my leg. I owe Dr. Dr. Miguel Brites Moita being able to live my normal life at this moment. May God protect you so that you can help others as you helped me.

In March 2022, I had an accident at work involving a lorry and was referred to CUF in Santarém, where I had the privilege of being treated and monitored by Dr Tiago Paiva Marques, an excellent professional who did a superb job and managed to restore the use of my left arm through elbow surgery. A big thank you to Dr Tiago and the entire U-MUV team, they are excellent!

Dr. Gonçalo Martinho and the U-MUV team, throughout the medical-surgical process I underwent, revealed a degree of technical and human quality of excellence that gave me great confidence. To Dr. Gonçalo, I would like to thank you for your care and constant monitoring, which contributed greatly to my total recovery and well-being.

In the second half of 2021, in a dispute over the ball, I tore the ligaments and menisci in my right knee. So my father and I made the fortunate decision to go to CUF Santarém, especially Dr. Levi, to treat me. After eight months of surgery and physiotherapy, I returned to playing with the same intensity and happiness as before. I would like to express our sincere thanks.

Thanks to the first consultation I had with the U-MUV Team, with Dr. Levi R. Fernandes and his careful and attentive manner, I decided to have the proposed surgery. I was happy with the improvement and I thank Dr. Levi and the team. For the service provided and the continuity of support I have received. They're great and I hope they continue to do more and better.
