Dr. Konstantinos Sarantopoulos, MD

My boyfriend had a screening with one of his doctors, that then later set up an appointment with doctor Sarantopoulos. He said my boyfriend’s case was too complicated and he needed to meet with Dr. Sarantopoulos (the head off the pain management team at UM). We had to wait one month for the appointment due to the current Covid situation. When the day finally came, they wouldn’t let me upstairs with my boyfriend even though it was evident that he needed someone to go along with him. They said they would call me during the consult, but I never received a call. The next thing that happens is my boyfriend came back with a bunch of referrals. Apparently he is not able to prescribe narcotics, which my boyfriend obviously needs. I wish they would have told us this during the screening, rather than waste our time. We are basically were we started. They have an online description on the UM website about this doctor and his consult, nothing that we experience honors what it says in that.

We had a 10:30 appointment to see Dr Saratopoulos. The intake nurse asked my wife for her current pain level, 1-10. My wife answered 12. We were put in a room. My wife’s hip pain is such that sitting makes it worse. After half an hour, one of Dr Sarantopoulos’ flunkies came in to review the history. He then left. Half and hour passed. Still no Dr Sarantopoulos. We decided to seek pain management from people who actually care elsewhere. We never saw the dr but but presume he just doesn’t care.

there had a referral from her PCP for continued pain management. The pain management did include a narcotic protocol. She went to a new patient appointment with this position and was told that this practice does not prescribe narcotics to anyone. Even there we saw she needed them and offered to refer her to her practice in town that does prescribe narcotics. If you were in need of narcotic pain management this is not the clinic for you. Don't waste your time and money.
