constant staff turn over. A couple of staff members have been there for several years but I saw 3 different P.A.'s over a 2 year period and all left with no warning or explanation. Making money from procedures seemed to be the number one concern.

In a years time of regular bi-weekly to monthly visits I only saw him twice, my first and last visit. I saw his physician assistant. On my last visit I refused to get a morphine pump implanted, so I was mailed a letter stating I was no longer his patient and adviced to go another doctor for a 300 mg daily morphine prescription. I rated low because if a doctor does not personally see me for a year, how can he be helpful and knowledgeable?

After I told him that my surgeon stated that Steriod injections were killing my knees and hips. He tried to inject me with more steriods. He told me he was going to try something new. Good thing I asked the nurses what was in the suringe because it wasn't something new it was steriods again! He is the "Steriod King". Watch Out! how do you think he pays for that 150,00 Mercedes, Big Building and lavish parties!

I had been to countless doctors over a period of 5 yrs. The first appt. with Dr. Mahendru gave me more hope than I ever had. I was in constant pain 24 hrs a day. He decided a morphine pump implant would be best in my situation. It gave me my life back! I still had pain, but nothing like before, and it wasn't bad enough to keep me from doing things I hadn't done in years - taking my daughter to the mall, sitting through a movie, gardening. What more can you say about a Dr. that has changed your life than thank you! Also, his "pump nurse", Michelle, is an angel, she's very caring AND funny.
