Can I ask a question why is a neurosurgeon doing Workmen’s Comp.?
Why is he evaluating me for the insurance company when I’ve had no other testing seen no other orthopedic doctors and not follow the proper procedure you don’t see a surgeon first let alone a neurosurgeon if you don’t need surgery.

Definitely in the pocket of the insurance company

I don’t know any neurosurgeon that would be doing at Workmen’s Comp.. This is why he is ineffective he doesn’t care he barely speaks to you if it’s not to speak down to you and ask you why are you not working? Who told you not to? He has no respect for other doctors.

Is the meaning and he doesn’t do a proper neurological exam I know the difference

Again and our surgeon should be focusing on his patients and his surgeries he does these quick things uses his nurses to do all the work, the NP’s etc. and then does nothing and collect some money from the insurance company so we’re all making him rich and we’re getting not proper treatment from that

If your insurance company sends you to him, I would dispute that

This “Dr” is the worst. Make sure record any contact. If you don’t, you will find out how deceptive he and his employees are. He has and will continue to lie on reports that support insurance companies while telling you to your face that he is helping you. He put in his report that he administered several tests that never happened. He claimed he performed tests that he never performed. All this was done on his part for a paycheck from the insurance. He is not to be trusted and you should record him and his staff at every encounter.

There is no one Dr. that hase listened and tried to do everything they possibly can to help me. I have had open heart surgery among other things and every time I call Dr Delasotta he calls back or gets me in there to see him.

Dr. Delasotta did surgery on my neck/spine 15 years ago. Did a great job. I was up and out of the hospital seven o'clock the next morning. He came highly recommended to me and I will do the same.

Unbelievably arrogant. Does not spend any time with you. He has his staff/nurse do all the work then gives a sentence or two (of f/u orders) before he gives you the time of day. I have never met a doctor so full of himself.

Amazing doctor prior to surgery could not walk, sit or lie down after surgery I was walking a few hours after surgery. No issues what so ever and I feel great. If I ever needed to go back he would be my only choice and I highly recommend him. He is very caring and professional and I love his staff they are caring and professional real friendly staff. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Because of him I can now live a normal life pain free!!!

Why the unnecessary myelograms? When I saw this doctor with a disc hernation, I already had an MRI. He insisted that I get another test called a myelogram before he would talk to me. Now I have nerve damage from the myelogram. It was totally unnecessary as everything could be seen on my MRI

I previously had this same exact procedure at another facility. My recovery was excellent, you could not convince me to go anywhere else. Yes he is busy and does use support staff to do the initial assessment, and goes over everything. If he had to do everything himself, he would not have time to treat the patient. All of him employees are properly trained. as one more tidbit, the person who did my initial assessment, is in the operating room assisting.

Stay away. I should have known better. The office is a cluttered, chaotic disaster. He did not talk to me during the entire visit. His nurse did the entire interview and explained everything. He did a surgery on me and I have had had to have three other surgeries to repair the damage. I could not move my legs after the surgery and he told me it had been like that beforehand. How would he even know since he did not examine me? I am in constant pain and I am worse than what I started. He treated my mom and I think that he may have been good 20 years ago but he seems to be losing his edge and his mind.
