Dr. Robert Valentine, MD

One of the worst doctors and staff I have encountered in my many many years of experience with the medical community. They are rude, condescending, and could care less about you. I will never go back nor can I recommend anyone else does. I never felt like I was a patient, more like a number and definitely treated like I was bothersome for them just by being there. Being kind & courteous goes a long way and these folks have a lot of work to get there and a lot to learn. This is my opinion due to my own personal experiences.

Dr. Robert Valintine has been my pain management doctor fo many years. He has always been prompt, courteous, and attentive to my needs. His staff is the best it is a pleasure to go to a doctors office and not treated like a number. I would highly recommend Dr. Valintine to anyone who is truly seeking pain management.

One of the best physicians I have ever seen. His treatment of my back pain issues and the relief I have received was more than I ever expected. Awesome Physician.

He makes so many other doctors look bad. I moved to him after dr Nguyen . Simed. Lost interest in me. Dr valentine is superb ! Makes my previous doctor look like a kindergarten teacher. Unbelievable how so many people accept mediocracy. Let dr valentine show you the difference ! .

Outstanding pain physician. I’ve recently switched PM doctors and the difference is, frankly, several orders of magnitude in the positive. My first encounter was >40 minutes with a very thorough history and exam. Follow ups have been fantastic with tweaks and changes to my meds and finally addressed my neuropathy successfully. Dr. Valentine has a unique and refreshing attitude overall and listens to everything you say. He’s extremely informative and fosters an environment of involving the patient in decisions which is exactly how it should be done. In the past, I’ve always felt like issues that came up were addressed with an almost adversarial or alternatively a dismissive attitude. Office staff couldn’t be nicer which is a change I used to dread calling my previous doctors office with an issue. There are only a few choices in the area for PM but I encourage anyone needing this specialty to visit Dr. Valentine, you won’t be disappointed. Can’t say enough good things. Highly recommend.

There is only great things to say about Dr Valentine. Wonderful sense of humor, patient and does not rush you out the door. Listens to evething you say. I live in Gainesville and have several types of Doctors I see. He is the only one I like and trust. He's so nice, knows all about my family etc. I feel like he is family.

Dr Valentine has a great sense of humor! Seemed genuinely interested in my issues. Have high hopes he'll help me get my pain under control. Would highly recommend Dr Valentine. The only detractor would be the front office staff. They did not acknowledge me when I walked up to the sign in sheet, they were more interested in talking about their dating life. And the young lady tht checked me out was kind of rude and maybe said three words to me during the check out process. Very unprofessional.

Impeccable bedside manner which made me feel very relaxed and comfortable. Had to have steroid injections in my neck and it was virtually painless. He spent a lot of time reviewing my condition, and concerns, and explained treatment options in great detail. One of the kindest, and most caring, physicians I’ve ever had treat me!

Just left my new patient appointment with Dr Valentine. The front end staff was very pleasant and Dr. Valentine was very thorough. The visit was a little long but the doctor made sure we covered everything and all my questions were answered. He has a great sense of humor and is very easy to talk to.

Excellent physician! Proficient yet compassionate. If only all Doctors were like Dr. Valentine...

Great ! Takes time to talk and explain procedures etc. and will listen to you. He truly acts like he loves his patients and want to help them. Very nice staff Highly recommend
