Dr. Andrew Fond, MD

Terrible

I was sent to Dr. Fond. He read my file back to me of all my back problems degenerative disc deasease,annular tear,crushed nerves, bone on bone, etc up and down my spine and where it said moderate to severe in places he omitted the severe as same as where it said mild to moderate he omitted the word moderate. .He down played all my problems as if I had no pain. Then takes down my pain meds and says he's taking them down more which they have already been taken down there. I can barely function to just get to bathroom. Told to exercise like laziness got me here. I was always an active sports person from a kid and on the go from early morning to late night. Now I feel like a vegetable. No quality of life at all and useless. At least on my old regime of pain med ,I was up and walking with bearable pain. Now just Pain 24/7. This man is cold as ice. People like him have no idea of the pain chronic patients go thru. He should not be in pain management. He is cold as ice.

I have had low bone density since birth, in turn; severe scoliosis I had a full back fusion and within two years I felt that something was terribly wrong. For a full year I complained of extreme pain. My surgeon had me see this dr to get pain manageable and we took a CAT scan...then in Dr Fonds office he had me walk/stand as he pushed where I hurt as I flinch in pain. He decided he’d cut my meds “as per the CDC new guidelines” I cried. Then results came; both vertical titanium rods were broken

if your in pain do not go to this guy. (I have been in pain management for a long term issue receiving good care prior to meeting this guy). gave me an earful about the CDC epidemic and then proceeded to put me on some garbage that caused my loss of motor skills within 3 days. but hey at least it was non narcotic. Now i'm in serious pain again and had to pay a bill for this horrible (non) service. Avoid at all cost..
