    Dr Patel and PA-C Scott Talbert were amazing. They cared how best to alleviate my pain and bring…read moreabout a positive result. Both surgeries were successful and I am now able to resume a normal way of life. Great team!!!! Thanks also too, Jenny, who was the surgical coordinator and did an amazing job making sure that my appointments and surgery went as smoothly as possible. She's an extra star in their team. KWOC's personnel were always courteous and helpful.

    Title: A Nightmare Experience--Listen to Your Instincts and Seek a Second Opinion…read more I chose Dr. Stolarski for my April 2024 knee replacement based on his reputation and promised technology. Unfortunately, my experience was the worst of my life. Pre-Op & Concierge Fees: I was not allowed to speak with Dr. Stolarski until the week before surgery. He dismissed my pre-op MRI, stating he only needed to know I was "bone on bone." I requested a titanium knee, not a "smart knee." During this time, his staff suggested a $10,000 out-of-pocket "concierge fee" if I wanted faster appointments and direct access to the doctor who was operating on me. I declined. On surgery day, Dr. Stolarski never checked on me pre-op, post-op, or spoke to my family in person. Months of Dismissed Pain: Immediately, my home therapist noticed my knee would not bend. For months, I suffered from severe pain, swelling, and heat." It took 5 months of exhausting physical therapy to get my knee to bend but the severe pain and tightness remained. Despite a normal MRI at 8 months and bone testing at 12 months I was dismissed, told I had "anxiety," and that everything was "perfect!" I begged Dr. Stolarski and his PAs for help with finding cause of the pain. In August 2025, a medical assistant--not the medical team--suggested metal testing. I paid to expedite bloodwork through a Chicago lab and discovered a nickel allergy. In October 2025, Dr. Stolarski coldly told me if I wasn't better now, I never would be, and suggested a total revision. The Truth Found Out of State: In January 2026, I sought a second opinion in Atlanta. Within 15 minutes of looking at new X-rays and my metal testing results, that surgeon revealed the truth: my knee was overstuffed (too big), the kneecap was too thick, and despite my requests for titanium, the implant was made with nickel. Recovery: I had a knee revision in Atlanta in January, 2026. On day one, I could sit in a chair with my knee bent at 90 degrees. Five months post-op, I am hiking mountains in North Carolina completely pain-free. Dr. Stolarski's office either completely missed glaring issues on my X-rays or chose to ignore them. To them, you are just a number. If you are hurting after your knee replacement and being dismissed in Florida, trust your gut and leave the State for a second opinion.

Post surgery- Im able to relax and be pain free which provides life instead of just living.- Thanks The office systems just got updated in 2026 and work wonderfully, the old system had gaps that limited customer satisfaction.

    I want to thank Dr. Andrew Fine, neurosurgeon, and the Neurosurgery team…read more My surgery was February 8th, 2024. I had a ruptured disc at C5 & C6, repaired by discectomy and fusion. It's been almost 4 months. I should have written this review earlier, but life happens. Plus, I still am having a hard time believing the pain that I lived with for 15 yrs. is truly gone. No more pain! I feel wonderful! Yes, I am still recovering, bones are healing, but I feel so good that I must remind myself not to push too hard. I spent one night in hospital after surgery. After I left Sarasota Memorial, I took no pain medicines. Only took an occasional at bedtime over the counter Tylenol. For what I would call a little discomfort not pain. I felt great, was able to move around, walk around and even had a good time watching the Super Bowl, days after. After my 3-week visit I was able to drive. After a month, I travelled by jet to visit family. I have walked 23K steps in Washington DC, ridden trains, and taken long bicycle rides again in D.C. Before I picked Dr. Fine, every medical doctor strongly recommended Dr. Fine. My husband and I did the research and agreed he was the BEST NEUROSURGEN for this procedure. Plus, when I met him, I found a very calm, soft spoken, knowledgeable doctor, with great bedside manners. Thank you, Dr. Fine!

    Discharged Without Notice -- Serious Communication Failure…read more I was very disappointed with Intercoastal Medical Group, Beneva Road. My doctor discharged me without any notice, even though I am 80 years old, and had been on prescribed medication from their office for a long time. Without renewal, there is a risk of serious health consequences. Communication was also difficult, and when I tried to discuss my concerns, I was told they don't share email contacts for managers or doctors. I hope Intercoastal Medical will take greater responsibility for continuity of care and clearer communication with patients.

    Got established with Randy Powell, to get on anti anxiety medication. Should be pretty easy,…read moreright..Well when I went to pick up the medication he prescribed, pharmacist says, 'this is your first time being on anything like this, isn't it. Well this dose is high and Dr should have started you off at half this and worked your way up to see if you could tolerate it' So I call and speak with his nurse Sara and ask her if he could lower it and explain what pharmacy said. She asks Dr.Powell and he said that what he called in is what I need and he was not changing it. So all night I am throwing up and having heart palpitations feeling like I'm having a heart attack, because of the strong side effects! Now I have worse anxiety because I'm gun shy to take anything else. I am not impressed with his doctoring skills if he can't even do something this simple.
