    DR. HAUSER,
    I USE THE TERM LIGHTLY. MY WIFE JEANNE AND I SAT WITH YOU FOR
    A 250 CONSULTATION FOR HER CONDITION; EXTREME CHRONIC PAIN IN HER FINGERS AND IMBALANCE ISSUES., (DUE TO A FALL). WE TOLD YOU, AND BROUGHT X RAYS TO SHOW THAT SHE HAD C-3 AND C-4 DISCS FUSED. AT THAT TIME YOU TOLD US YOU COULD DO AN IMAGING TEST FOR AN ADDITIONAL 1200 TO SEE IF YOUR PROLOTHERAPY - TREATMENT WOULD WORK FOR HER. YOU WERE VERY CONVINCING, AND AFTER YOU DID THE IMAGING TEST YOU SAID, AND I QOUTE;
    "IT WILL WORK." THEN YOU TELL US WE CAN DO THE TREATMENT FOR AN ADDITIONAL 900. I DID NOT APPRECIATE THAT, WHEN ON THE PHONE, THE PEOPLE TOLD US TREATMENTS WERE 500-900. MIND YOU NOW, IN 1 DAY YOU TOOK 250 /1200 / 900. YOU ARE A REAL RIP OFF ARTIST. I HAVE TO ALSO SAY I WAS NOT IMPRESSED WITH YOUR DRESS CODE; LOOKED LIKE A YOU WERE WEARING PAJAMAS WITH WHIMSICAL GRAPHICS, AND ELTON JOHN'S STAGE GLASSES. HOWEVER WE WENT AHEAD WITH THE 2350 TOTAL EXPENSE. YOU INJECTED SEVENTY (70) SUCROSE (SUGAR) SOLUTION FILLED NEEDLES IN THE SAME AREA. THE TREATMENT DID NOTHING, AND THE NEXT DAY MY WIFE WAS SO TRAUMATIZED SHE FELL AND BROKE HER WRIST. WE ALSO TOLD YOU WE HAVE AND HAVE CUSTODY OF OUR 9 YR. OLD DISABLED GRANDDAUGHTER AND TAKE CARE OF HER 24-7. AS IT WERE, WE TRIED TO IMPROVE MY WIFE'S QUALITY OF LIFE,, AND YOU TOOK ADVANTAGE OF US. I AM PRETTY SURE WHAT YOU ARE DOING IS - OR SHOULD BE ILLEGAL. I AM NOT A DOCTOR BUT I HAVE SPOKEN TO SEVERAL, AND THEY AND I, DO NOT BELIEVE THAT 70 NEEDLES OF SUGAR, INJECTED TO THE SAME SPOT IS FEESIBLE. I WOULD NOT HAVE AGREED TO ANY TREATMENT UNLESS THEY WOULD WORK. I WORK VERY HARD FOR THE MONEY YOU TOOK FROM US. I SHOULD HAVE TOOK A CLOSER LOOK AT YOUR TERRIBLE REVIEWS, BEFORE LETTING YOU RIP US OFF.
    UNLESS I RECEIVE A FULL REFUND, I WILL BRING A LAW SUIT AGAINST YOU AND YOUR PRACTICE. IN ADDITION I WILL MAKE A FORMAL COMPLAINT TO THE MEDICAL REVIEW BOARD.

    SINCERELY,
    STEPHEN R. ANGEVINE

    Don’t take my word for...even though this “doctor” nearly crippled me, see below an article earlier today in the Spanish national nap newspaper....pretty much calling the hyped by Dr Ross ...PRP, as quackery. Don’t let this dude stab away at you, nilly willy without any guidance...his practice is pretty much chicanery.

    If your experience with Dr Hauser is similar to mine (HORRIBLE NEARLY CRIPPLED ME) and that shown below from others, please contact me at prolopain@outlook.com. We are collecting data to address this situation.

    “If you value your health and money, do not see this man. He performs prolotherapy in the Stone Age. No guided imaging. Terrible diagnostician. Causes grossly excessive inflammation that can ( and in my case did) lead to disabling injury. He underrated my most problematic areas and decimated me otherwise. After finally finding another doctor with light years advanced solutions and techniques, I went from the acute disability this man put me in to never better.”

    “Prolotherapy is the biggest scam in medicine. If it was truly that good insurance would pay for it, (a sugar injection costs 100 dollars yet a surgery costs 18000). This quack injected my knee with a sclerosing agent giving me arthrofibrosis of the patella. I suffered for years as the result of what he did to me. Stay far far away.”

    This guy injected a caustic substance known as sodium morrhuate into my knee. I developed arthrofibrosis of the knee cap as a result. The surgery to fix the arthrofibrosis crippled me. Stay far far away

    AVOID Dr. Hauser and Caring Medical! You will be healthier and wealthier to never step foot in their office! Yes They promise great results and charge exorbitant amounts of money for their services! I was treated by Dr. Hauser and Dr. Special and repeatedly told them my symptoms were not improving and my gait had actually become worse. This was not investigated. It was not until nearly a year and half later he noticed my walking into the clinic. He then referred me to an MRI and to an alternative medicine doctor, who was a friend, who charged exorbitant prices as well.! The amount of prolotherapy he injects is not necessary and is painful. Most importantly I believe his random Injections cause harm. I spoken to orthopedic doctors since then who use guided X-ray machines to assure they are injecting directly in the joint and where the pain is located exactly!
    I did not improve under Caring Medical care to my back, hips and knees! Even when they were aware I was not improving, they continued to treat me and of course charge me. The most disappointing and hurtful part of my relationship with Caring Medical is when an inter office
    Email was accidentally sent to my mailbox. In the email Dr. Hauser and his Chicago collegue
    Shared that they were basically "done" with me. After allowing me to spend $10,000 + they basically gave up on me. Then to add more insult, it was stated that I was lonely and liked to
    See them because my husband was too busy for me! Believe me I could have sought out a
    much less painful, much more enjoyable and certainly much less costly outlet for loneliness
    Or attention if that was the case! What a stupid, ugly statement!
    So beware-- they are wolves in sheeps clothing. Great at parting you from your money and
    You may never know what they really think of you unless you are accidentally made aware of it!

    P.S. A well known orthopedic doctor in Ft. Myers, who knows Dr. Hauser and watched and discussed Dr. Hauser' treatment is against the way Dr. Hauser treats patients. His staff told me
    they think he is scary and treatment method overboard and ineffective. And of course very much
    Overpriced!

    He did stem cell prolo on my knees to grow the cartilage back. 10 years now and my knees are still great. My left knee which was bone on bone is still healthy and strong. The best thing is no more chronic pain. Hallelujah! Also had him work on my back rather than have bones fused. 10 years later it's still strong like it was when I was in my late 30's. Thank you Dr. Hauser

    Wonderful, caring doctor with a great team. My family has been treated by Dr Hauser over the years for various injuries, shoulders, knee, hip, neck and low back. Very grateful to have his expertise that helped keep us active and back in action quickly after each injury. Highly recommended!

    Dr. Ross Hauser has helped heal both my "frozen shoulders". I don't hesitate to sing his praises! Before you have cortisone shots or undergo the "knife" try prolotherapy. Dr. Hauser is exceptional at his profession.

    Biography

    I am a Board Certified Physiatrist (aka: Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Specialist). I completed my residency training in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at Loyola Medical Center in Chicago; obtained my MD from the University of Illinois, Chicago; and my Bachelor of Science undergraduate degree from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. I am most well-known for my expertise as a Prolotherapy doctor. Prolotherapy is the medical procedure that stimulates the body to repair painful, injured areas. I was blessed to have trained under the respected Prolotherapy doctor Gustav Hemwall, MD. He is considered the grandfather of Prolotherapy and I was truly blessed to be his apprentice at his office in Oak Park, Illinois (more on that below). Dr. Hemwall was trained by George Hackett, MD who developed and coined the term "Prolotherapy." My wonderful team and I run two state-of-the-art Prolotherapy and motion diagnostic buildings, Caring Medical Florida and the Hauser Neck Center, located in sunny Fort Myers, Florida. My practice at the neck center is currently focused on C1-C2 instability-related conditions and complicated neurological cases, as well as full-body and complex cases, such as Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome.
