When I went in for my results, the doctor's assistant didn't even know I had already completed the MRI -- she wasn't sure why I was there. I had to explain my back issues all over again, and then she said I needed an X-ray. I told her I came in for my MRI results, and she seemed surprised and asked who referred me. I explained it was the Oxnard office. She then said, "The doctor likes to have both." This left me confused, because my understanding is that an MRI usually provides more than enough detail. On top of that, I had just paid nearly $600 for the MRI. When I asked if my insurance would cover the X-ray, she replied, "They should." My complaint is this: patients need to be informed up front if additional tests are being recommended and whether those tests might require another copay or out-of-pocket costs. It shouldn't just be assumed that insurance will cover it. If the doctor wants both MRI and X-ray, that's fine -- but patients should be given the choice and a clear explanation, especially when significant costs are involved. On top of that, I have been trying to get in touch with the office manager, leaving several voicemails, and still have not received a call back. I think patients should always have the right to seek a second opinion and not just be expected to go along with what one doctor says. Extra tests mean extra money to the office, and we deserve transparency and options before being billed.

    Ventura Orthopedics is famous for NEVER sending your records to other doctors. My insurance was…read morecharged a fortune for all the tests and assessments at this place. However they never send your records if you wise up and go to another Dr. All the doctors and their staff know this.

    In 2019, I had my right hip replaced with Dr. Calderone. I am now more than one year past surgery…read moreand it is fantastic. No more constant pain. Dr Calderone in the entire staff have done an excellent job. In fact, he was so good that when I had to have my left hip replaced I went back to him. I am now two months post surgery on my left hip and, once again, the results are amazing. I highly recommend Dr Calderone as a surgeon.

    We have had a very disappointing experience with Dr. Calderone's office in Camarillo…read more Dr. Calderone himself may be a perfectly capable orthopedic doctor, but unfortunately, the overall experience with his office has made us decide not to return. The biggest issue is the staff. Whenever we need paperwork, medical records, a referral, or really any type of request, we are made to feel as though we are bothering them. There seems to be very little urgency or concern, and it routinely takes days just to get a response. The office experience isn't much better. Every time we have had an appointment, we have waited at least an hour in a small, uncomfortable waiting room with the television blasting soap operas or other programming at a volume that makes an already unpleasant wait even worse. Even more surprising for an orthopedic practice, the restroom is not conveniently located inside the office. Patients have to go out the door and down an outdoor hallway to use it. Many of the people coming to an orthopedist are dealing with broken bones, serious injuries, pain, walkers, crutches, or limited mobility. You would expect an orthopedic office to be designed with those patients in mind. Our biggest concern, though, is simply the overall lack of care and compassion we have felt from the office staff. When people are dealing with injuries and pain, a little kindness, responsiveness, and understanding go a long way. Dr. Calderone may be a good doctor, but in our experience, he needs a more caring and responsive staff and an office environment that better accommodates orthopedic patients. Unfortunately, based on our experiences, we will not be returning and cannot recommend this office.

    Good doctors, been happy overall with Dr. Deitel. Did a good job on my surgery, but it can be…read moredifficult to get a hold of someone in his office in a short time frame as he works out of multiple offices throughout the week. I fault the understaffed and overworked medical infrastructure of this country. Additionally, 1 star for front office staff. They are rude, and act as though their actions are above reproach. Try smiling or even using the common niceties such as "please" and "thank you". You work in a professional setting, the least you can do is act like a sincere professional. Nearly everyone that comes in here is in pain, have some compassion and try to be aware of how you speak to people and how it could be interpreted.

    I had an extremely disappointing experience with Dr. Deitel and would not recommend him based on…read moremy appointment. I waited over an hour and a half to see the doctor, and when I was finally seen, my appointment took place in a casting room rather than what I would consider a normal exam room. After waiting that long, I expected a thorough appointment and some meaningful direction regarding my ongoing workers' compensation injury. Instead, I felt completely dismissed. Dr. Deitel repeatedly asked me what I wanted to do, even after I explained that I am not the medical professional and that I was there because I wanted help getting better. I was looking to my physician to evaluate my condition, explain my options, and guide my treatment. I left feeling like there was very little interest in actually helping me or addressing my ongoing symptoms. The interaction felt unprofessional and dismissive, and I walked out without confidence that my injury was being appropriately managed. Dealing with an injury and the workers' compensation system is difficult enough. Waiting more than 90 minutes only to leave an appointment feeling like I was expected to figure out my own medical treatment was incredibly frustrating. After this experience, I have requested an immediate transfer of my care to another provider and will not be returning to Dr. Deitel.

I never get the feeling that his timer will go off any minute and that I will have to summarize as fast as I can. Rebecca G. in physical therapy has brought my useless painful foot to a point where I can walk to minimize the pain and swell. She too has been patient and innovative ( as well as her assistants) . I have never felt rushed but always listened to as we all navigated this process. Always uplifting but honest and thoughtful. I cannot say enough about the staff . Being greeted with a smile and competence makes the process of healing go a long way.

They usually bill me. But because I had a balance I was expected to pay that day. I believe it was $168. So manager was telling me I had to pay since I had a balance. I didn't have enough to cover entire amount. Then she asked me if I had a credit card or if I could call someone. I had no credit card or anyone to call to pay my bill. They usually bill me but since I had a balance since April, apparently I had to pay that day. Ok I get it. But did she really need to do it at checkout in front of everyone, patients and drs. ? And the way she was speaking everyone heard my business! Never been so embarrassed and humiliated. Have the decency to take me in another room office and speak to me and not in front of everybody. And what was she going to do if I didn't at least pay half the visit? But mind you when I overpaid for surgery you think they sent me a check ?
