John E Stavrakus, 102 Sum Mor Dr, West Columbia, SC
I went to Dr. Stavrakus for numbness in both feet. He recommended that I take Motor NCS and sensory EMG test which uses electrical shock testing waveforms. On my next visit I was under the impression that I would be talking to Dr. Stavrakus about the results of my tests. To my surprise I did not see the doctor but instead was put into a room with two young ladies.They suggested to me several shots in each ankle one or two times a week for 5 to 10 weeks called nerve blocks, which consists of shots of dextrose (corn syrup and water). They had a cart with the shots and ready to go.This was to "Relive my pain". I never told anyone on Vitalaty Medical staff that I had any pain. I have numbness in both feet which has no pain. I am also a diabetic and I think sugar water may be a bad thing for me. These injections are very expensive and are not covered by my insurance. After conferring with my family doctor, my opinion on Prolotherapy/Nerve Blocks is that it's a controversial form of therapy, and Vitality Medical try's to push it. I am sure glad I checked out Vitality Medical on line before I let them talk me into the shots.There was also some startling information about Dr. John Stavrakus on line when I did some research.Patient/ Buyer beware!

Fernando Navarro, 2 medical parkrd, Columbia, SC, 29203
My appointment today with Dr. Navarro was awful. Dr.Navarro is taking over Dr. Nottingham's patients & told me he didn't like going behind another physician's work & he had his patients too. Why agree to take on other patients if you don't go behind another physician’s work? He didn't read my chart before my appointment. He had the nerves to ask did I think he would take me to the operating room & haven't developed a rapport with me. I've completed so much testing for my condition & Dr. Navarro made me feel as I wasn't worthy of his time or GREAT health care because of my skin color. He figured he could tell me anything & I would go for it! The sad part of the entire visit, Dr. Navarre, keep telling me he would ensure I receive my$35 co-pay back. He arrived late to the appointment & wanted to spend 2 minutes with me to walk & head to his next patient. Dr. Navarro took an oath to provide health care to individuals but he only cares about you if your skin isn't brown/black. Please be mindful when you go see Dr. Fernando Navarro located at USC SURGERY 2 MEDICAL PARK STE 300 COLUMBIA, SC 29203.

Dr. Redmond is an asset to any practice. He is a top notch Dr. but also a wonderful person that cares about his patients. He is one of my most favorite Drs ever and has been caring for me since 7/2008. Excellent!

John C. Amann, 50 2nd Street S E, Winter Haven, FL
Dr. John C. Amann, M.D, F.A.C.S practice is Neurology and Neurosurgery Associate, P.A. in Winter Haven. FL. I went to Dr. Amann for a herniated disk in lower back. First visit saw P.A. said I would need to see Dr. Amann. My visit with Dr. Amann was to explain what he would do during surgery. He advised if given the shot it would be a 50/50 fix but with surgery it would 90% for complete recovery. I chose to have the surgery and at this time he sat down with us and answered any question my wife and I had. The morning of surgery I arrived at the hospital and checked in. Surgery was to be at 7:30. He arrived early and took me in to surgery at 6:50. I was able to leave by 10:00 to go home and recoup. Dr. Amann called that afternoon to check on me to make sure all was good. I returned to his office two weeks later for a follow up. Did not even sit down in waiting room and was taken back to his office. Nurse check all vitals and walked out of room and Dr. Amann came in within two minutes. He looked at the incision and said it was healing nicely, sat down and talked with us about what he had done during surgery and what to expect for the healing time. He asked if I had any questions and he sat and answered all questions. I saw Dr. Amann once before surgery, day of Surgery and the follow up visit. Not one time did I have to wait to see him. Very courteous and straight to the point. I would recommend him for anyone needing spinal care.

howard chasolen, 2033 wood st, sarasota, FL, 34237
:To Whom It May Concern: I was told by the advice from the VA- because of my substandard care that I received from Dr. Chasolen for the two years of a total nightmare, and being totally departed of my hard working sum of $38,000.00- and not having any of the work sent back to me- as I requested on several occasions- just to prove that it was in fact sent back to his discount dental lab in California for the total credit of any money that he paid to them- as he told me when he was sending it back - and telling the lab that it was a totally failing bridge unit- as he explained to me stating that we would receive any and all of the money that was paid to them. Dr. Chasolen then changed his story when he abandoned my treatment plan- that he again failed and could not put together the so called new plan with a new local lab to redo my work, he instead stated to me that the work was not sent back to the California lab- and as a result he was charged for the lab work of the failed unit, I then asked that he please send me all of the so called work that never was not sent back to the lab- and to please send it to me "to prove to myself that it was sent back to the lab and that he in fact did receive all of the money back" The dentist that finished my work even asked Dr. Chasolen for very important information pertaining to critical info. that was needed to complete my work with the new dentist but Dr. Chasolen never answered the request as it was obvious that a lot was being hidden from my substandard care that was provided with the treatment plan that I had for two years with Dr. Chasolen- and so very little was ever provided from Dr. Chasolen himself- other than the time and failed attempt that he made -trying to fix a chip that was done by his work on a $7,000.00 implant crown- even though i agreed to remove the chipped crown and let the lab have an easier time for the unit they were making, "low and behold Dr. Chasolen presented me with a $3500.00 bill to remove the crown that he had to remove because of the negligence in chipping it in the first place. To date my option that I am contemplating is to take out a reverse mortgage on my home to pursue a civil case- and try to get my $38,000.00 back and whatever merit of loss that a 80 year senior veteran would be entitled to for the two year night mare that I received while in treatment with Dr Chasolen. " Again- In Life We Learn From Mistakes, So Please Learn From Mine And Beware"
