My previous dr agreed to help me until I could find a replacement due to my spine injury. Office let me nearly run entirely out of medication before contacting me telling me Dr couldn't help me. He only does injections. I'm diabetic and unfortunately cannot have injections. (All was included in paperwork I filled out weeks ago) to which they ask me if I'd like to keep my appointment to be referred out again. (I pay out of pocket so this was insult to injury) I don't want to be horribly in pain waiting for another dr. That isn't how good pain management works. Anyway. Just watch your scheduling with this office and make sure you don't end up in a bad spot like they left me.

This was my worse experience ever. i have been getting treated at the pain clinic in Naples after…read moremoving from NYC and being on workman compensation for a Wrist injury. My workman compensation case ended but i still needed the wrist injections which helps with the pain for approximately 6-9 month. I called the clinic 3 weeks in advance, informed them that i would be using my private insurance, gave them all the details of my insurance. What should have been a smooth transition ended up with Dr Vidur Ghantiwala being very disrespectful to me. The way he spoke to me was so disrespectful, inappropriate and unacceptable. I left the clinic and decided never to return again.I called the clinic on the morning of my visit before going into the clinic and was told to come in for my treatment, I explained to the customer service person that i live an hour away and would like to make sure everything is straightened out before wasting time and gas to come into the clinic. I was assured that everything was straightened out. let me remind you that i had been in touch with them for the last 3 weeks regarding my insurance information. Upon arriving at the clinic, after paying my copay, i was taken to the treatment room where my vital signs were done. After some time Dr Vidur Ghantiwala came in to the treatment room, he appeared to be angry and stated to me " you're not going to be happy because you are not going to be able to get your injection today". I states to him you guys had more than enough time to switch from workman compensation to my private insurance. He made such a rude and nasty comment to me, instead of understanding of the hour travel i just made to come to the clinic that i decided if i was going to be treated that day i wanted my copay refunded and i decided that i would NEVER go back to this clinic again. He has such a horrible and nasty bedside manner. I am not a person who like to take any pills that's why i opted for the steroid wrist injections. The clinic was staff professional but its Dr Vidur Ghantiwala nasty disposition and the way he spoke to me that made me decided to leave the clinic that day. its possible that he was having a bad day because he walked in the treatment room angry for whatever reason, i don't know but i will Not tolerate and spend my insurance money with anyone speaking to me in that tone. Medicine is a business and all people should be treated with kindness and respect. His behavior was unacceptable.

To start with, I had to pay for my visit prior to seeing the doctor, which seems somewhat backward…read more There were an incredible number of people in the waiting area, and the whole appointment made me feel like a number. I was seen in a timely manner. Dr. Korunda did a very cursory exam, didn't explore any avenues i.e. sleep, stress, surrounding potential tendon inflammation, body mechanics, the prior 2 surgeries to my left hip, etc... He failed to explain my MRI and xray results (of which I had one of my lumbar spine, left hip, and pelvis). After any attempt to really figure out what the problem was and based on very vague and not substantiated data, he suggested facet injections. Should this fail to provide relief, then he suggested radio frequency nerve ablation. With a model of the spine, he spent about 30 seconds explaining the back anatomy. He failed to explain the procedure properly, it's advantages, potential side effects, the duration of the relief, the costs, whether he administered the shots (or who did), whether I would be sedated, etc... He also failed to address whether hiding the symptoms with these shots or the ablation would lead me to further damage my spine since they would hide the pain. I felt like he rushed me and provided no service whatsoever. I did ask about neural pathways developed due to chronic pain and he said that no it wasn't that as I had physical signs on my MRI. At the beginning of the appt., he said the opposite, that my spine looked great. Dr. Korunda is no better and no worse than the other doctors in Naples, but he works on people's spines! I'd hope he would understand that most patients don't want someone messing with their spine until a thorough exam has been done, there is some confirmation about the source of their pain - not just a guess in the absence of data, a complete explanation about the procedure suggested and its risks, and any and all alternatives. As patients I feel that we get bullied. These injections have not been proven to be very effective in the short/long term and they necessitate repetition. They are painful and expensive. They are, however, profitable and it seems that's much more important than using other strategies which involve a bit more time, but may address the source of the problem.
