I was referred to Dr. Uday Doctor since my primary pain specialist was not in network for my jobs workers compensation. I went for injection only with referral from his college. I could hear him in the next room reviewing my medication list with the nurse. He made derogatory remarks without evening meeting me. When he did come in thw room, he was rude and condescending. He ignored my concerns until I kept having to say "I'm not here for pain medications, I'm here for my tailbone injection". He finally scheduled it. I had fractured my tailbone with severe pain. I could barely sit. I didn't care about his preconceived ideas about narcotics. He dod not know how to individualize cate. He has talked his BS for so long, he forgot how to communicate with people. On the day of the procedure I couldn't eat him reassuring the other patient but when he got to me, he just ID'd me and walked away. He was very cold. I had a reaction to the anesthesia hours after surgery that lead to a week hospital admission. I needed my FMLA paperwork to be off for the 2 weeks required for the procedure he did and his NP or PA advised me to discharge and go see him to get the paperwork completed. I rushed my hospital discharge and went the office visit still on supplemental o2. At the appointment he argued about not doing the paper work and just could not wrap his mind around non-workers compensation work release. I'm a RN with a very physical job and my job did not allow return to work with restrictions as there are none unless it is approved by workers compensation. I explained how since I sought care originally through my insurance instead of the workers comp program my job would not approve the return to work with restrictions. This butt hole, yelled and just ignored everything I said. For my first time a doctor was so disrespectful, I cried right there. My BP was high from the stress and I was Short of breath due to my asthma exacerbation after thw anesthesia that sent me to the hospital. DO NOT SEE THIS GUY. I don't care how much education a person has, bedside manners are important.

Dr. Doctor really changed my life. I had been in chronic back pain since having back surgery that didn't work , using a cane and taking pain medication for several years. He very efficiently provided his analysis of my situation,recommended steroid shots for the inflammation and nerve pain blocking. 1 day after the 4 hour procedure 95% of my pain was gone as was my cane. It has only been 3 weeks, but as anyone who has experienced chronic back pain, if it only lasted for a month , it was well worth it. Hopefully it will last for many months to come. I highly recommend him. I will certainly go back if and when the pain returns.

Dr. Doctor is my hero! He has taken care of me for about 4 years and has kept me pain free. He may not be a barrel of laughs, but he is professional and polite. I don't have to be entertained by a doctor, but I do want him to listen and help me That has what Dr. Doctor has done. His staff has always been professional and helpful. I don't want another doctor but him!

Scheduled for a back injection. Was in pre op for 4 hours. When I asked why and when I would be treated the director nurse and dr Uday himself was extremely rude and continued to lie to me 4 times before I got up and left. Dr took a personal phone call regarding drilling a well in the middle of our consultation and spent about 10 seconds with me. I did not even get to ask questions or voice my concerns. Very egotistical and bad bedside manner. The entire operation was like a cattle call including booking the procedure all the way through.

Had several procedures with him, all of which did not relieve my pain. When I returned to see if he could help me, instead he acted like his ego was hurt and didn't care to listen to anything I had to say about pain I was experiencing. I felt very mistreated and have never experienced such rude behavior from a professional in my life. Why would I have been there in the first place if I didn't think he could help? After his egotistical display and demeaning treatment, I wouldn't want him touching me.

I went to Dr. Doctor for my neck and shoulder pain. My symptoms were burning on both left and right arm and shoulder pain. Also experience numbness on arms at times. The pain would shoot down to my hand, and they would feel cold sometimes. Pain was worse at night it was hard to sleep. He injected my neck and by the 3rd day I was pain free. Finally getting good sleep, not grouchy anymore. He knows his stuff. Thanks Doc.

I am a 74 yr. old female. I have significant curvature (scoliosis) and narrowing (stenosis) of the spaces where the spinal cord and spinal nerves are located in my lower back. In 2009, I had an episode of severe pain in my left lower back and leg. I saw several doctors and did not really get any relief until finally someone sent me to Dr. Uday Doctor. He gave me injections in my lower spine, which virtually stopped my pain. In early 2014,the pain had recurred and I again saw Dr Doctor. I received epidural steroid injections for several of the vertebra in my lower back. After the injections, my back & leg pain were totally gone in 1 to 2 days and are still gone. I strongly recommend that anyone with significant chronic pain in the lower back get an evaluation by Dr. Uday Doctor to see if you are a candidate for steroid injections. They have really helped me & may help you also. Being pain free is wonderful.
