I have been a patient of Dr. Brian Wallace's for several years following a torn ACL repair. I…read morerecently made an appointment due to shoulder pain and decreased strength in the gym. Dr. Wallace ordered an MRI which is conveniently located in the Joint Replacement Institute practice. His staff worked with my insurance when they first denied coverage even though it was the last few days of the year and my family had more than met the deductible. The MRI was covered and revealed a 50% torn rotator cuff and Dr. Wallace suggested PRP (Plasma Rich Platelets). Blood is drawn from the patient and spun to produce PRP which contains a mixture of platelets, including cytokines and growth factors, and has anti-inflammatory properties which injected into an injury site can stimulate the healing process. I have truly been more than pleased with the results. I no longer have shoulder pain including when I lay on my side and I am working my way back up to push-ups and heavier weights in the gym. As a surgeon, Dr. Wallace looks for non-surgical remedies when they are an option. Dr. Wallace also has incredible bedside manner that make me know I have been heard and takes his time to ensure that the patient understands all pain relieving options. Dr. Wallace has empathy, knowledge and surgical skills. We are fortunate to have Joint Replacement Institute with skilled surgeons right here in Naples, Florida.

I cannot review their Doctors but if they do not get rid of their overseas call center it will…read moredestroy their business. It takes 20 min to make an appointment. No one comprehends english. They put you on hold 10 times and say they are confirming information. This foreign call center has access to quite a bit of medical information and they are asking questions that should not pertain to scheduling an appointment. When I stated the Drs office has all of that information they still insisted I provide them the information prior to scheduling the appt. They keep having to relay info to a supv for some reason and put you on hold multiple times. Its a very inefficient way to run a professional medical practice. It is quicker to drive to the office to schedule the appointment.

I had an 11:30 appointment yesterday with Dr Atilio Palma. I waited 45 mins, no one let me know…read morethat they were running behind. Finally got put in an exam room. I said I would not wait for more than 10 more minutes, after 15 minutes I started to leave, dr Palma was in hallway joking with staff about the previous weekend, when I said I was leaving he said I was just coming in. I said too late! After I left 5 mins later the office called me asking if I was still there. No apology or explanation except to say it's the doctor. I was in business for 40 years, if I left a client waiting for over an hour I would not be in business any longer. What makes a doctor think they are do special that our time is not worth anything . I told them I wouldn't let him treat a hang nail let alone fo major surgery on my back. Why would he care anymore. I do not recommend NASA's services. They do nothing t care!

After a L2 kyphoplasty by Dr. Gary Colon (neurosurgeon Naples, Florida)I had extreme left glut and…read moregroin pain immediately after and Dr. Colon denied it was from the L2 kyphoplasty. After complaining to him for 3 months he got rid of me by sending me to pain management for epidurals, other injections, morphine and physical therapy which didn't help at all! After consulting other Naples neurosurgeons and neurologists for many months, with no honest answer from any of them, even though I had a CT scan prescribed by Dr. Gerber showing cement on the report at L2, but Dr. Gerber stated I had no cement in my canal and wanted to do a stim implant instead. After much research I found a neurosurgeon in Miami who looked at my scans and said the wrong surgery was done by Dr. Gary Colon and the Miami surgeon could fix it with a decompression and fusion at L1,2,3. He did this and removed cement from my spinal canal that Dr. Colon put there and never informed me of it, even though I had an MRI shortly after the L2 kyphoplasty that showed the cement and the MRI was seen by Colon. Dr. Colon also lied in his medical notes that I requested. Since this surgery by Colon I need a walker and I am confined to my home unless I get help to lift the walker. It's a living hell thanks to Colon! Office people are awful to schedule with.
