Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

extremely disrespectful and unprofessional. i’ve had back and neck pain for 4 years, been to multiple drs. i’ve weighted between 150-220 and the pain had not changed with any weight fluctuations. he looked at me walk & examined me and my xrays & everything, then he weighed me and said “your pain isn’t caused by your weight, but i will not help you until you’re at the weight you’re supposed to be at.” proceeded to tell me the weight i should be at for my height (5’4) is 120, and that i should be eating 1000 calories a day and walking 5 miles a day (with chronic back pain). he told me as a woman, my spine can’t handle extra weight. he said “i’ll see you next time you come back and if you’ve lost the weight we’ll do the testing if you haven’t lost the weight we’ll do surgery right here in the office, we’ll sew your mouth shut”

Dr. Delasotta and his staff are superb. I had a microdiscectomy recently and another 10 years prior. He is very direct and efficient and I have complete confidence in him.

Dr Delasotta is the Greatest surgeon there is. He operated on me twice and both surgeries went flawlessly. I had very little post op pain and short recovery times. He has a great bedside manner and really cares about his patients.

I had c-spine surgery two years ago and the results were amazing. Even during cold or rainy weather I barely have any issues. Before surgery I could barely move my neck. I have full range of motion. I highly recommend this surgeon. The staff was amazing as well. I wouldn't go to anyone else .
