after 3 months of pain and suffering, after seeing 6 Doctor, regarding the excruciating pain in my right leg, Dr Bodor came to the rescue, took me in the same day I contacted him and his staff, gave me a shot that immediately made me feel so much better. I recommend to everyone that has issues with back pain or needs an immediate treatment to relieve or cure the symptoms. Go see this awesome doctor and his helpful staf, you will be very happy and thankful, just like me. read more

Dr. Bodor has been treating our family for the past ten years for a variety of different conditions (Botox for migraines, Botox for spasticity following a stroke, and for various back problems). In all circumstances he and his staff have consistently provided the highest level of care, always with the best of results. He and his staff makes you comfortable from the very moment you enter their office. The warm and inviting environment of the office is a direct result of Dr. Bodor's compassionate and empathetic patient care approach. Without a bit of hesitation I would highly recommend Dr. Bodor if you suffer any muscular skeletal condition and want a physician who will provide you with the highest level of care possible with empathy and compassion. read more

As a former professional athlete, I've worked with world-class doctors around the world. Dr. Bodor is genuinely in a class by himself. As a result of a career in multiple extreme sports, and a refusal to act like I'm 52 when I go outside, I'm one of the more beat up people out there. Disc damage, joint damage, nerve pain, ruptured muscle sheaths, and in February 2017, a knee torched while alone in the backcountry. Yet last winter, I was able to put in 785,000 verticle feet of pretty intense skiing before the season got shut down. Dr. Bodor and his team are the reason I'm still charging instead of limping through my days on pain meds. Over the years, Dr. Bodor and the skilled members of his team have fixed my: lumbar discs, facet joints, both wrists, a worn-out right knee, and the aforementioned left knee that sustained a fully ruptured ACL, a partially torn meniscus, and a damaged PCL. My surgeon in Tahoe told me, "You can't fix a knee that looks like that with a needle.", but Dr. Bodor did, and I have a series of MRIs and the ALTIS performance results to document it. This review may sound overly effusive, but Dr. Bodor radically improved the quality of my life. The many treatments I've received allow me to continue to pursue my adrenaline highs while most of my pals are home watching the game. He is truly a remarkable man and doctor. I am grateful that I know him every single day. read more

HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE ! Although not required by my double insurance, his staff made me get a referral from my Primary Physician, (requiring yet another office visit with her) Then his staff required a recent MRI exam, or equivalent, before an appointment, from my local provider. Then his staff required I bring all prior medical records, (dating back 50 years) to my first appointment. On the date of finally getting an appointment, 40 miles from home, my GPS to his address put me in an incorrect common parking lot for several medical offices. Phoning his office, the receptionist said it happens to lots of their patients, but she gave me very poor directions in finding the office. Then Dr. Bodor arrived at the office 40" after my appointment. I was still sitting in his outer waiting room when he arrived. No explanation or apology given for the delay, while I watched three of his office staff socializing. After all this grief, Dr. Bodor informed me his is NOT TAKING ANY NEW PATIENTS. Months of wasted time, energy and in much pain. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS DOCTOR ! read more

Dr. Bodor is the Physician that you go to when you can't get relief of pain any other way. I have experienced his care personally with PRP injections for Meniscus disease in my knees, and Facet injection in my neck, and my wife experienced his care with PRP injections in the lumbar discs, which saved her from having back surgery. His work is really on another level. It's your MRI and bring it with you to your first appointment, you can thank me later. I am truly grateful for his care in this community. read more

Dr. Bodor changed my life. I am forever grateful for him & his team. I suffered from debilitating back pain for several years after giving birth. I had tried everything and some of the best spine centers in the country. An orthopedic surgeon at UCSF Spine told me I needed a spinal fusion. I finally was referred up to Dr. Bodor in Napa because my PM&R physician had trained under him. He did a single 1-day procedure with just a needle, a regenerative medicine procedure that actually HEALED my disc and vertebrae. Dr. Bodor has given me my life back. I was unable to sit on the floor and play with my children and couldn't sleep from pain. I am now PAIN FREE and my spine has actually HEALED. Dr. Bodor is a gift. His treatments will be the standard of care in the future, I have zero doubts. What's really remarkable is Dr. Bodor talks through all your options. He informed me that the regenerative procedures currently work for 65-70% of patients and they're still researching how to help the other 30% of patients. He invests a lot of time into researching what is working at a cellular level to try to understand what works and on whom, and to expand the success of patients like me to all patients. He was very candid with me about the research and science (I have a public health degree and read all of the studies) and I made a highly informed decision to go with the PRP of the L5-S1 and bilateral facets. I am now healed and I am eternally grateful for clinicians and healers like Dr. Bodor. Full disclosure: I am a healthcare industry executive and I have an unreasonably high bar for my physicians. Dr. Bodor is 2nd to NONE. Thank you Bodor Clinic for everything you do. read more

I just saw a couple bad reviews for this amazing physician so I had to post my story. I have been suffering from back pain for years after doing a squat challenge without proper form while weighing 230lbs. I knew I had to lose weight so I accomplished this goal but still suffered with severe back pain. As it turns out I had annular tears at several levels which is not a surgical fix. I work in the medical field and several of our patients had seen Dr. Bodor and raved about him. I decided to make an appointment with him and this was the best decision I ever made. He has treated me several times over the years with PRP injections for various body parts but for the spine it has been a miracle. I understood that this procedure would take time to work and was willing to give it the time needed to do its magic. I know I will always have some level of back pain but Dr. Bodor has given me my life back. I am able to work out and lift weights and stay active. I am a Kaiser patient but will never allow them to treat my spine. Dr. Bodor is my guy!!! Thank you Dr. Bodor!! read more

Please do your research before you go to this Doctor - Do not let the positive reviews out way the negative ones as a doctor destroying the lives of a few patients with no regard is enough already. Do yourself a favor and go to a different Clinic as now because of doctor bodor botched procedures back surgery is the only option! The principle of going to a doctor does regenerative medicine is to avoid surgery not get botched and leave in worse shape. read more

Dr Bodor is great. I have seen him twice since 2017 and the second time was this year during Covid and he went out of his way to get me in in a timely manner for my leg pain which he quickly assessed and through his attention to detail he Discovered something that he needed to refer me out for and he took the time to personally call and try to get me in to be seen that same day by a colleague. I ended up seeing the colleague the following day and Dr. Bodor was very communicative and supportive of my situation. I think he is a skilled and compassionate caregiver and I have a lot of respect for him. I am quick to notice a poor bedside manner and I have not found his staff to be anything but professional. If you're looking for answers to your situation it's definitely worth seeing him. read more

After the events that I mentioned in my first review things got better. The office staff had never been a problem nor Dr Bodor. I loved going to see them. Mainly cause it meant I left pain feel. Plus everyone was helpful and nice. read more

SIRVA (shoulder injury related to vaccine administration) has made my last 6 months unbearable with severe pain. It led to bursitis, adhesive capsulitis, and rotator cuff damage. After a long search for help filled with surgeons denying SIRVA exists, I discovered a blog mentioning Dr Bodor. I travelled from Oregon for Dr Bodor to perform his self developed Tenex procedure on my left shoulder to remove the flu vaccine remnants. I'm hopeful for the first time that I may recover and have use of my arm again. Aside from his expertise, Dr Bodor is absolutely the most incredibly caring doctor. His bedside manner is among the best I've seen in 22 years of being a nurse. His research is meticulous and procedures are cutting edge. His empathy during the procedures put me at ease. When I experienced severe pain, he reached out after-hours 3 times to ensure I had what I needed to control the pain. His nurses are so outstanding and caring. I can't thank them all enough. read more

I am 74 and have suffered from headaches since high school. Not migranes but still painful and at times lasting days. I had talked to every doctor I ever visited for anything plus some specialists and nobody ever had an inkling of what to do. Then I went to Dr. Bodor and he changed my life. He came up with a new way to treat my problem which involved some injections under nerves going up my skull. Within a few days my headaches ended. This treatment usually lasts for 6 months, sometimes longer. The front office is very professional. Sometimes you may have to wait a while but that is because he never rushes you through. I read some other reviews which were not positive. But as I believe as do most others, he is doing cutting edge procedures nobody else has tried. I have 100% confidence in Dr. Bodor. read more

Had a BMAC procedure here, and the staff is awesome! I felt well cared for. They even let me order "Alexa" around to play music that I liked. Professional, compassionate, and fun! Not the most delightful procedure, but they sure made it easy, and pleasant. I mean you're butt is hanging out in the open for the marrow extraction part. Often considered embarASSing...But, (pun intended) I won't think twice to have the procedure again for my other knee. I would mention all of their names, however I don't want to misspell...so Thank you all, especially M and M!p read more

Dr. Abel who works with Dr.Bodor is wonderful. I agree with all the compliments. He is professional and genuinely cares about his patients. The injections I get in my hip are not painful at all! I highly recommend Dr. Bodor and Dr. Abel in Napa for any sports injury or other problems. read more

I recently saw Dr. Boder for pain in my shoulder and couldn't have been happier with the experience. Coming out of shelter in place, Dr Boder and his staff went out of their way to schedule an appointment with me and make me feel comfortable. He quickly diagnose my shoulder with bursitis and calcium deposits. I'm not a fan of needles, but he was very patient and supportive when I received a steroid injection. Dr. Boder is a great caregiver and would highly recommend him. read more

I have no idea whether this doctor is good or not. What I do know is his staff is awful, and without feelings. I was in a car accident, where my car was totaled by a Land Rover going through a stop sign. My PCP recommended Dr. Bodor for my neck injuries. I arrived at Dr. Bodor's office with a letter of recommendation, which the receptionist took, and told me I would be called back. I waited at home, no longer having a car or loaner, the first day, but no call. The next day I tried calling, but each call resulted in nobody answering, and my leaving a message. Today, the third day, has resulted in the same not answering their phone. I'm in pain, and this doctor's staff doesn't care. I don't know if Dr. Bodor ordered them not to answer the phone, or they just don't do it, themselves. Horrible people without a stitch of concern for hurting, injured people. Shameful. Update. Dr Bodor's office told me they couldn't set up an appointment until they had more " clinical" information from my PCP, They could not ask my PCP for that information until I was seen by Dr. Bodor. The only people who knew this was Dr. Bodor's staff. I didn't and neither did my PCP. Seems I have to request that information, but was never told. If that makes sense to anyone, let me know. So in conclusion, You can't see the doctor without clinical information, which they can't get until the doctor sees you. Catch 22 read more

Dr Bodor was able to clear up my back pain with PRP injections. No longer living with chronic pain.

I was injured 20 years ago by a drunk driver and left with chronic cervical nerve pain (cervical radioculopathy). After multiple surgeries, 2 disk fusions and had been seen by numerous specialist including a world renowned neurosurgeon at USCF. I was told my condition would never improve. Well they were all wrong. Dr. Bodor performed a PRP procedure which took 2 months before I started to feel positive results in pain reduction..I made sure I followed Dr. Bodor's recovery instructions and did not deviate. The end result is a 70% reduction in overall pain. I personally know several locals that have been seen by Dr. Bodor and have had great success in recovery as well. Dr. Bodor is quite simply not your typical specialist he's a caring and devoted doctor that in my experience and opinion will take the time to listen and provide thoughtful out of the box thinking of how best he can help to relieve pain. read more

Dr. Bodor is professional, thorough, and very enthusiastic about his work. He did PRP in my lumbar spine following a nasty fall, and thanks to him and the technology he developed I have 80-90% better. I can move easily. I can sit comfortable. I have peace of mind. read more

Dr. Bodor is absolutely amazing! I came from Southern California to Napa just to see him because he has an amazing reputation and is on the cutting edge of medicine. He is brilliant and had the best bedside manner of any physician I have ever met which is saying a lot as I am a nurse. I would absolutely recommend him for any orthopedic need. The staff is also extremely nice and helpful. read more

I had a serious ski fall last March. I went to Mt. Tam Orthopedics. They had seen me for back issues, so thought to see them for hip. Sent me off to their MRI. report was a labral tear. They never followed up on me! By word of mouth from others in my office who are also active in sports, I heard nothing but praise for Dr. Marko Bodor in Napa. . I got an appt and saw Dr. Abel. Never in my life have I had such a comprehensive examination of an injury! And with such genuine care and concern for my well being. He spent so much time with me. He explained everything to me. He gave me options and I truly trust his judgement. My hip is still painful, but that is probably my fault in part for not doing the PT he recommended after he gave me a steroid injection. IF YOU HAVE A SPORTS INJURY, SEE THIS DOCTOR NOW! read more

I have lived in Lake Tahoe for the past 20 years and in that time have had the good fortune to be associated with many elite skiers, swimmers and triathletes from all over the United States who have come to live and train at Lake Tahoe. When I developed a debilitating back condition a couple of years ago, I was able to call upon friends for advice. An almost universal mantra was to obtain the best, least invasive pain management in conjunction with the best Rehab/Physical therapy available before considering surgical options. Although I had premiere medical care available to me locally, based upon recommendations and testimonials, I chose to travel to Dr. Bodor's office in Napa Valley. I am glad I made the decision to do so. Dr. Bodor's creative and unrelenting drive to obtain the best result possible has had a profound effect upon my life from both a physical and emotional standpoint. Dr. Bodor has a compassionate approach that includes both listening carefully and taking the time to explain creative approaches to pain management, whether traditional or cutting edge in nature. Dr. Bodor's staff has been great to work with as well. Dr. Bodor's practice is a bit unique in that, while he offers an array of traditional medical alternatives covered by many insurance plans, he also offers "concierge" alternatives whereby non-traditional and cutting edge techniques may be paid for on an out-of-pocket basis. read more

This review is my experience with D Bodor back in 2015. It took me a while to write this review as I'm not the type of person who says bad things about other people but my experience with him changed my life. He did platelet rich plasma injection to my L5-LS disc in year 2015 after suffering back pain for 5 months and it was the biggest mistake I've ever done in my life. I regret having it up to this day as I've been in so much constant pain every single day from the area he injected the prp. I went back to Dr. Bodor several times but he had no answers for me and instead referred me to Stanford who will not do anything as I'm too young to have a fusion surgery. According to Stanford, prp Injection is not something they do to their patients as there are really no reliable studies that's it's completely safe and effective. If I had known this before, I wouldn't have consented to this procedure. I have no other options now but to live with this constant and debilitating pain. I feel that Dr Bodor and his fellow didn't provide me enough information in order for me to have an informed decision. They also didn't do a thorough assessment to make sure I will benefit from it. I felt that he talked me into it for the purpose of money making and increasing his sample prp patients so that he can convince more patients to do it. When you've been in pain for so long,you are willing to try anything and believe anything that offers to provide relief. I regret to this day trusting this doctor and how I wished I had more knowledge about my condition at that time. So beware if you are thinking of getting a prp injection from this doctor as there is a big chance you will end up worse. read more

I went to have a nerve study done and the Dr who ran it was a crazy ass bitch! I want to throat chop her. But alas, I will yelp instead. I went to Bodor for a concerning problem with my back, only to come out in tears, sobbing, after this woman (who had a business card that says she is an MD, but I seriously question that now) said she felt I had Multiple Sclerosis, and needed to seek further treatment asap. While she had me captive probing my lower extremities with a very painful needle, she was quizzing me on her new business venture, and asked me if I would be willing to pay 1 dollar a min to receive medical advise via Skype... Grrr. Freaking salesman. So she tells me I have MS. This was January 17. So for the last 2 months I have been living as though I was fucking going to be crippled. Looking on the web for medical info is terrifying! And that what she told me to do! WTF! While she was telling me what was happening, I started to cry.. SO DID SHE! She actually had to excuse herself from the room, to gather herself back together. WTF kind of MD cant hold their emotions.. I'm sorry but she really needs to sack up, and try to stiffen her upper lip! I have no ill feelings for Dr Bodor, or his office, but this lady is a freaking psycho. Do no harm is one of the things they tell people.. Well She harmed me. Ive been living in HELL! Thanks a-hole! read more

I have been going to Dr. Bodor for years. We have worked through many injuries and joint issues. Dr. is always energetic and enthusiastic when he thinks he can help with my pain. He refers out when he thinks someone else can do more. I love Dr. Bodor and appreciate that he keeps me away from surgery whenever possible. Almost all of his staff are helpful and kind. His office manager can make you feel that you aren't welcome, but a small price to pay for seeing Dr. Bodor. read more

I was referred to Dr. Bodor because he is so highly regarded within the medical community. My experience was entirely positive. He was very patient and warm and I always felt confident I was in good hands under his care. read more

Bodor's interns cannot diagnose and their advise made me worse. Try to see Bodor, not the fellows.
