DOUGLAS C. SCHOTTENSTEIN, MD - SCHOTTENSTEIN PAIN & NEUROLOGY REVIEWS
Awesome Doctor! Very professional and caring! I needed an urgent visit scheduled during Christmas holidays. I have tried to schedule an appointment with other neurologists but they were fully boooked. Dr. Schottenstein was able to schedule a visit right away. Most importantly, he has examined me and immediately provided me with an accurate diagnosis which late was confirmed by the hospital staff. I strongly suggest considering Dr. Schottenstein in the event you need to see an experienced and reputable neurologist!
Dr. Schottenstein is compassionate, considerate and extremely communicative which i have found extremely difficult to acquire in other doctors. Dr. Schottenstein is a specialist in pain management and neurology which I have found exceptionally rare as well. I have found his care to be one of a kind and specific to each and everyone of his patients. I would definitely recommend him to a variety of people who may be in need of a specialist in either and both areas.
Dr. Schottenstein is incredible. I moved to CT and still refuse to see anyone else for injections. I trust him. He is proficient, gentle and disarming. I actually enjoy our conversations during procedures and it makes the process easy. When I need to reach out from home for whatever reason (insurance stuff etc), he is always responsive and concerned. I suffer from chronic pain and other severe health issues that he has always had a hand in addressing. I am grateful to have him as my doctor.

Dr. Melepura is an excellent sports injury and pain management doctor. He was able to diagnose and stop the pain in my knee. His office staff is great at communicating and the doctor himself was always available to discuss any concerns or questions that I had. I will return to his office with any future pain management needs I may encounter and recommend him to my family/ friends.

ROBERT F. MANCUSO, MD REVIEWS
Highly recommend. I was in & out quickly and with more answers I’ve gotten from other docs in the past and scheduled next steps. He’s super nice, really good bedside manner and extremely knowledgeable. Clean and friendly office, overall great experience. I see why his ratings are so high… if you’re having back/spine issues or pain make an appointment - you won’t regret it & you’ll feel better having gone to talk to him!
Had a life-changing experience with Dr Mancuso and was able to recover from years of pain in my hip. Discovered the pain was generated from bulging discs in my spine after an MRI. Dr Mancuso was able to treat the pain right away. The same day I was feeling back to myself after years of going to chiropractors and other specialists.
I had a wonderful experience with Dr.Mancuso. he's very efficient and knowledgeable. I had pain on my lower back radiating to my thigh. He sent me out to get an MRI and went over my MRI thoroughly. He was informative on how my treatment process will go.
