  The Orthopaedic Institute has wonderful staff and Dr. Parr is a GATOR..., Feb 26, 2010

Dr. Parr is a big Gator football fan (has to be since they treat a lot of the Gator players) so he's extra happy to meet other fans! While Dr. Parr himself was knowledgeable and straightforward with the medical evaluation of my orthopedic problem, my visits to this office are always made amazing by the helpful staff. They are friendly and patient and kind - especially important to folks in pain! I was fitted for a brace and an air cast by a lovely lady who joked with me about my new stylin' shoes. The front desk greeters are always smiling. Sherli (one of the nurses) even gave me a hug when I vented frustration over my condition to her.

  Dr. Aldea Bamboozled Me, Don't Go to his practice!..., Jan 28, 2012

DO THESE THINGS BEFORE YOU COMMIT TO SURGERY WITH DR. ALDEA: 1) Ask for the refund policy before you pay ANYTHING. You might not be provided the refund policy after you've paid the deposit. There are many outs for him not to return money if the surgery doesn't happen. 2) Don't be fooled by the good reviews out there. Some sites allow surgeons to only display the good reviews and not the negative ones. 3) Research to see if there are any lawsuits filed against him first. My experience with Dr. Aldea was NOT pleasant. He showed up 1 hr late for my surgery. Many of the nursing staff at St. Francis commented that he's frequently late and his surgeries always run over (which means you'll pay much more in the end!) On the OR table we both learned I had an irregular heartbeat. Dr. Aldea canceled the surgery but agreed to do it later if cardiac clearance was obtained. I got clearance which said that my condition was benign and to proceed with surgery as planned, but he never was satisfied, he found every excuse in the book not to do it. He dodged my calls for months! I wanted to get specifics from him on what he needed from the cardiologist. He kept having his patient coordinators say the same vague thing, "Dr. Aldea needs to know the surgery is safe for you." No cardiologist in their right mind will write "safe" in a letter. They will only say low-high risk. BTW 2 cardiologists wrote that I was low risk for the surgery and at no higher risk than a person who didn't have an irregular heartbeat. After many unreturned calls from Dr. Aldea, I got upset and asked for the truth and a refund if he didn't want to operate. He responded and said that I was ungrateful and here's your refund minus $750 deposit and he said that I didn't want the surgery. I responded that I did want the surgery but was tired of the run around and asked that he personally return a call so that we could clear up misunderstandings. His coordinator responded that he would not do the surgery until he got
  Excellent Doctor Surgery of Xiphoid, Xiphoidectomy..., Dec 1, 2011

My daughter was injured over a 1 year ago and it took us that long to find Dr. Yurvati who had knowledge in treating her condition. She was diagnosed right away and he go her into surgery and she is immdediately feeling relief. While surgery was a scary difficult time for us he made the process so much easier. He got her in right away and never kept her waiting, he was patient and answered all of her questions, and he was very compassinate and made sure she received the very best care. We are so blessed to have found Dr. Yurvati and would recommend him to everyone.

  i have been a patient of Dr. Szemetylo, he has been my doctor for 8 years. He is the best gastroint..., Nov 9, 2011

Dr Szemetylo is a great gastro doc. He takes his time and LISTENS to u the patient. I would recommend Dr. Szemetylo to my friends and family. His staff is nice and friendly. Appointments seem to be on time. If the office is running slow, it's because Dr. Szemetylo is listening to his patients. Dr. Szemetylo is the best. He cares about his patients. Either his nurse or Dr. Szemetylo, himself will call u back with lab results, blood results, ct scans, endoposy etc as soon as their office receive them. They r wonderful!!!!!
  Dr. BLACKMAN is the Best Doctor I've Had Since Moving 2 Greensboring..., Aug 23, 2011

When I 1st met Dr. Blackman, I had kidney problems. My right knee was swelling but not my left one? but for some reason i thought it was due to my sickness it was not. Dr. Blackman ran his test and figured i had a serious infection that could have caused my knee and downward to be amputated. . .he did the surgery with success. It did take me the a while to heal, but a while is better than a LIFETIME. Thank U Dr. BlackMan -Josh Ikegwu
