Please consult this review prior to seeking care from Christopher Fanella or Dr. Fishman:…read more In 2021, I saw Dr. Fishman and his PA Christopher Fanella, for chronic back pain. An MRI was performed, and the radiologist's report clearly noted a congenital birth defect called lipomyelomeningocele. Despite this being documented in the report, Fishman and Fanella disregarded that finding and told me I was "fine," that I've had this issue since birth, and attributed my pain solely to disc bulging and herniation. I followed their recommendations, including physical therapy. Over the years, my pain persisted and physical therapy failed to provide AND relief. I tried to manage my pain the best I could with intermittent steroids and naproxen to no avail. The whole process was physically and emotionally debilitating. Finally, In 2025, I returned to their care due to excruciating pain and underwent another MRI. The findings related to tethered cord syndrome (lipomyelomeningocele) remained unchanged. Yet again, instead of further evaluating this congenital condition or referring me to a neurosurgeon, Mr. Fanella continued to recommend more physical therapy and said the defect that the defect that the radiologist noted for a SECOND time had nothing to do with the excruciating pain I was experiencing. He referred me back to PT despite me telling him that it was making my condition worse. After multiple failed attempts at physical therapy, I sought care from another back specialist, Dr. Vecchione. Upon reviewing my MRI, that doctor immediately referred me to a neurosurgeon. In 2026, nearly 5 years after my initial visit with Dr. Fishman, I was formally diagnosed with tethered cord syndrome/spina bifida by a neurosurgeon which is the cause of my extreme , chronic lower back pain that I have endured for over 10 years. Because this office failed to take the time to fully evaluate my MRI findings or investigate the tethered cord noted as far back as 2021, I endured years of misdiagnosis, unmanaged pain, and significant mental health distress. I am now facing the possibility of surgery to untether my spinal cord; something I was explicitly told years ago was "nothing to worry about." If this was not caught when it was, I could have had life changing consequences for something as routine as receiving an epidural during childbirth. My condition has worsened, and I have lost valuable years during which earlier intervention and monitoring could have made a meaningful difference. I strongly encourage patients to stay away from this practice. You will not receive individualized, intentional treatment. Your pain and MRI results will not be taken seriously, and you will likely end up in a PT mill

They never answer the phone. They have several locations and sent out the incorrect address in the…read morereminder. So we went to the wrong location first but still had some time so we tried calling ahead several times to get the correct location/give a heads up we'll be late/try to reschedule. When we got there, Christina Rodrigues said we have no choice but to reschedule. At this point I'd rather not come anymore. There's a reason the Yelp reviews have low ratings. The doctors aren't bad but the front desk staff is. They don't pick up the receptionist phone but whenever we get there they're on their phones or chit chatting. Literally she was doing nothing at the desk just chewing gum talking to the other employees doing nothing. No customers there or anything but can't pick up the phone! UPDATE: I left this review and immediately got a call back from their office saying that since we've been there before we should remember where it is! Very rude and unbelievable. We canceled and will not be returning. They expect us to memorize where a doctor's office is as if we can recall every single location we visit WEEKS ago! Because people don't have anything else going on in their lives??

But now it seems he only sees patients who need surgery. Dr. Shaw is the doctor for the Florida Panthers so he must be busy with them during season as well. Now I see Lisandy. I hope I am spelling that right. He is wonderful. He gives a lot of time and attention to me. He recommended some great exercises for my shoulder pain. They have helped me. Lisandy really cares about his patients. The only bad thing about this office is it is often hard to talk to someone from the front desk staff on the phone. I have called too many times where I talk to the answering service at 10:30am because the front desk staff is too busy. That is the only negative thing I have to say about this practice.

He's patient, he listens to you and he thoroughly explains things to you, He's definitely not one of those Drs who just prescribes you medication and tells you to come back in a couple of weeks.

The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is from a couple of issues relating to the staff (not calling in meds, kind of a big deal). I recently started physical therapy here and can honestly say the physical therapists really have getting you feeling better as their top priority.

What a joke. My…read morehusband in a sling was given documents to fill out from to hostile admin assistants. Off to a terrible start. The admin assistants were then dealing with a heavier set lady (who worked there) with short curly hair who spoke to them like them were dirt on her shoe. All loud and aggressive for the entire waiting room to watch and feel uncomfortable. So no wonder the front of house staff treats people coming in the door terribly when that's how they are treated internally. We wasted time filling out all documents and sitting for an hour before being told being seen here would be a liability because he had already had a surgery on his clavicle. All we wanted was to review his pain management and wound care. Not to mention the place is FILTHY from the outside. You are a dollar sign to these people. And I'm not even sure they have qualified enough staff. Overall nightmare.

Absolute joke of a pediatric emergency room…read more We walked in with my son's hand completely covered in blood--he needed stitches--and there was ZERO sense of urgency. From the initial check-in, to the nurse, to finally seeing the doctor almost an hour later... no one moved with any urgency whatsoever.

We were there for FOUR AND A HALF HOURS just to get four stitches. This isn't the first time either.
