I originally started coming here when it was Lynn Family Practice. Dr. Lynn retired and Dr. Sterk…read moretook over. And the level of service didn't change!! The office staff is extremely friendly and welcoming. Love that they get you in right on time for your appointment and the wait times are not long. They even have telepath appointments where you don't have to go to the office, merely FaceTime with the doctor. Dr. Sterk is absolutely AMAZING!! He is so patient and easy to talk to. He's dedicated to his patients and their healing. Dr. Sterk takes the time to listen to his patients and wants them to be healthy. He's worked with me in taking me completely off of my blood pressure meds. And ensuring I'm taking the proper vitamins for bone health, etc. I didn't even know that he's also an Osteopath who can manipulate the spine. I was in for my last appointment and woke up with a bad headache that morning. He took me back to a room that had a chiropractic type chair where he had me lay down and worked on my neck. After his manipulation to my neck, my headache was immediately gone! I absolutely appreciate him as my doctor and know that I'm in good hands with his care! I HIGHLY recommend him! If you look him up he literally has 5 star reviews from all patients! He's THAT awesome. He even does mission work in Guam and treats patients in Guam. https://provider.kareo.com/troy-sterk

Once I got to the patient room my vitals were taken, everything was high but the nurse didn't seem to care. Cool! I then had to wait 1hr and 20 minutes for Dr.cho to basically tell me to take allergy medicine for my hives. He like to talk fast to try and speed up the appointment I noticed I also had pictures of my hives that I wanted to show but he was only interested in taking a Quick Look at one of the MANY pictures I had. He also likes to talk over you as your explaining anything I ignored him and continued talking. Honestly I should have walked out of the office after 50 minutes. I've never been to a doctors office such as this but I'll definitely be looking for a better immunologist.

I'm very disappointed with experience today at this office. I left my home with enough time to…read morearrive on schedule according to Google Maps, but after accounting for traffic, unloading my 17-month-old child and all of our belongings, and navigating a very slow elevator, I arrived just 18 minutes past my appointment time. Despite getting there at 8:18 AM and doing everything I could to be timely, I was turned away and told I'd need to reschedule. It took me nearly 40 minutes just to get there, and being sent away over an 18-minute delay felt incredibly disheartening--especially with a toddler in tow. I was referred here for an allergy test and was told the first initial appointment would only be a consultation. The lady at the front desk advised me that consults can take anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour, so if I was 18 minutes late, doesn't that mean there were still 42 minutes left in my appointment window? It just doesn't make sense that I couldn't still be seen. To make things more frustrating, I received an email at 8:26 AM--after I had already been turned away--titled "NEW PATIENT PAPERWORK" That tells me the paperwork clearly wasn't expected to be completed beforehand and could've easily been filled out after the consult. Offices are always quick to request payment but seem far less flexible when it comes to showing basic understanding of real-life situations. Unfortunately, I will no longer be referring others--especially my fellow Tampa Bay WAG moms--to this office or doctor. There needs to be more compassion and flexibility, especially when dealing with parents of young children.

She asks the tough questions & gives great honest answers. There is no long waiting period, which I really appreciate. The schedule is kept, pretty close on time. Dr. Ridley-Payne does not hurry her visits & thoroughly answers all of your concerns & questions. They are able to draw your blood on site, which is another great time saver & convince. All staff is personable, professional and compitent. Going to the doctor is no longer a chore, but an easy stop on my schedule. Personally I really appreciate being treated like a person & not like one in a heard of cattle. Thank you! What's a girl to do?

Upon sitting down in the waiting room, I looked to Yelp but didn't find anything so went to Google and found 5 star reviews! Which was surprising given the office staff seemed slow. Called back about 20 minutes after our appointment time. And nurse was very friendly. Doctor Cannella came in and just wowed me! He's amazing. He is so personable and actually speaks to his patients like people, walking us through the process of dialysis and the options available. He's a native to Tampa and graduated from the same HS as we did so we shared some stories. He's comforting and truly shows his passion for what he does as well as care for his patients. He's honest.

I like my old school doctors and Dr Cannella is definitely one of those. He is professional and…read morepersonable and takes his time to explain everything and to answer questions you might have. My favorite thing is he is usually the one that speaks to us rather than a nurse or PA. He is also very good at being an advocate on his patients behalf in order to get things done.

I was so apprehensive about being told they couldn't find anything after being to two previous places, but Dr. Muqtadir was fantastic. He explained everything clearly, professionally, and found my issues right away. I wasn't crazy - I did have a fracture.

Why 5 stars? Because after seeing many people, I finally received a diagnosis here…read more --- --- --- I've really been struggling with back issues for the past couple of years. I've seen countless types of doctors and physical therapists, only to find no solution. My Orthopedic Doctor got the point where he just kind of threw his hands up in the air and told me I should see someone else because he was out of ideas. That's where I found Dr. Schulak. He was incredibly thorough with my examination - performing a bunch of different resistance tests and showing me the curve of my spine on the X-rays. He was able to do something that no one else could: provide me with a diagnosis. That bad news is that I may not be able to fix this problem, but at least I know what it is now and can attempt to resolve it. Dr. Schulak referred me to nearby Physical Therapist that I really like so far, but time will tell if I can finally curb this pain that I'm having. I definitely appreciated Dr. Schulak's expertise to at least tell me what was wrong with me!

I had an ongoing back problem for years and went from doctor to doctor who blew it off. A lower…read moreback issue is VERY hard to get care for, at least in my experience. My primary care doctor ordered a MRI and I took the results to specialists who basically looked them, threw some medicine at me and sent me on my way. I got zero compassion and no one who took my escalating pain issue seriously. A friend of mine had gone to Dr. Schulak and swore by him so we made an appointment. By the day of my appointment, I couldn't walk any more. My husband had to put a mattress in the back of our van to get me to the dr. . . I couldn't sit either. My pain was to the point that I told my husband, either we need to fix this or I need to be put down. That's where I was at. Dr. Schulak felt like my last hope and honestly I didn't hold out much hope after dozens of doctors blowing me off no matter how great my pain was. . . I walked in with MRI results I had taken in Oct 2013, and this was now April 2014. . . So many months that I had barely survived and doctors dismissed me after looking at the same results Dr. Schulak put on his computer and looked at. Then he walked into my room and told me I was the proud winner of a surgery. . . He was kind. He was compassionate. He cared about my pain and most of all. . . He admitted me to the hospital THAT DAY and did the surgery the next morning and fixed the problem. He told me it was the only surgery I was going to feel better coming out of then I did going in and boy was he right. . . 2 days after my surgery I threw a birthday party for my daughter and people were amazed (In retrospect I was probably over doing it and Dr. Schulak would faint if he reads this. . . But after so long in so much pain I felt on top of the world) He saved my life. I would send my mother to him tomorrow if she needed back surgery . . . I read some of the other reviews and honestly. . . He's not a pain management doctor. He is a doctor who fixes the issue. That's what he does. He determines what the issue is and works towards helping patients live healthy lives. And yes, he told me to exercise. He told me to walk. He said I needed to do my exercises to keep my back strong and called me out when it obvious I wasn't doing them like I should. I don't see anything wrong with that . . . Like I said, he's a Orthopedic Surgeon and I went to a lot of doctors who specialized in back pain who did nothing to help me. . . And honestly, I didn't get fistfuls of meds from him, but I did get a second chance at life without NEEDING meds. . . And I'll take that any day! Also, as a side note. . . His staff is amazing too!! They were all compassionate and wonderful! They really cheered for me on my follow up visits when it was obvious I was doing so well!
