Very nice and proficional
March 6, 2019Sara F.Verified patient
Very disappointing that:
1. Dr. entered room not knowing why I was there. Thought it was for my finger - it was for my back!
2. Quite upset that while I brought in a previous MRI disc and report at my last visit - I discovered that neither the doctor or assistant had actually scanned/copied it into my chart. Therefore he could not reference it today. The receptionist told me that was something She usually did - but no one told me to hand it to the receptionist for scanning.
May 8, 2018Donna L. C.Verified patient
Would have liked him to spend a little more time explaining how he reached his diagnosis. Also, I had to ask him what to expect as a result of treatment and how long it would last.

Would look for another doctor next time. Waited for over an hour beyond my appointment time. If I had been that late I'm sure I would have been charged as a no show.

Dr. Piza has treated my right rotator cuff and also shredded labrum tendons in both arms so successfully in the past, and I completely respect and trust him enough to take care of my painful left shoulder now. He really is the best!

As usual it was an excellent visit to Dr Ptza. I feel 100% better now after I received an injection. I always find Dr. Piza to be friendly and interested in my case.
December 18, 2015Robert W.Verified patient
I think Dr. Piza is very pleasant, knowledgeable and professional. He takes the time to explain everything in language I can understand and I never felt rushed. The entire office staff is also very pleasant, professional and accommodating. I like to feel comfortable and confident with a doctor and I do with Dr. Piza.
Highly recommend!
December 17, 2015Angela V.Verified patient
I came in for 2 reasons:
- Intense chronic shoulder pain that gets in the way of daily activities
- Recent stress injury to my forearm, which was strong enough that pressing the soap dispenser hurt. After a full month of intense pain & not being able to use my arm, I realize this isn't going away on its own and seek medical help.
SHOULDERS:
He didn't even look at or feel my shoulders. He said "Even if you get an MRI, and we see there's a tear, what are you gonna do, get surgery?"
Um, ok? He was extremely uninterested & dismissive.
This has been bothering me for the past 18 years. Thanks for caring.
FOREARM:
Turns out the forearm was tendonitis. He gave me a brace to wear as much as possible for 2 weeks. On day 2, after sleeping with it, I called in because I had lost feeling in my thumb from it.
I was supposed to get a call back about that. Did I? Nope.
Also, you know what finally did help a LOT? Something as simple as ice & anti-inflammatory over-the-counter medicine. Did he tell me to do that? No. I found this out myself by searching the internet and I finally have relief.
What do I take from it?
- Overall he seemed uninterested & like he just wanted to go home.
- He did not do ANYTHING that actually helped me.
- I helped myself more my searching Google.
- His brace made me lose feeling in my thumb & no one called me back.
- I wouldn't say that he was rude, so his bedside manner wasn't "bad" but he just didn't care. Very dismissive.
- I wasted a co-pay.
Would I ever go back? HECK NO.
