Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Would not recommend
He will over talk you for sure. He’s just there to collect a check etc. Work comp doctor etc. He will sit up there and down play your issues. Doesn’t listen. Will tell a person that they can just get over it. No manners he needs to retire. Office staff is okay. Glad I don’t have to deal with him any longer. I wouldn’t waste my time, energy dealing with him. Narcissist behave is what he has.

Don’t do it – Jun 28, 2023
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Estivo?
So far, HORRIBLE! The appointment seemed thorough enough, except for the extended explanation on changes to work comp law that protect the insurance company. But it's now been 9 weeks since my appointment, where he advised his agreement that my issue was work related, and he has yet to send his findings back to insurance so they can release me to begin treatment. Every time I've called, his staff has had to apologize and say they will leave him a note that I called. They clearly can't get him to move any faster, and the insurance rep says her last claim was over 3 months in coming back. He clearly has no concern about work comp patients other than booking them for the appointment.

Still Waiting!! – Dec 05, 2019

Seems he just wants to push you out the door and back on the floor. If your ready or not. My visit with him made me feel it wasnt my health he cared about but the work status paper saying your fine without an explanation as to why your still in pain

Awful experience. He just wants to dismiss you off the company's insurance as soon as possible. I was supposed to have a series of three injections. He told me I couldn't have another one after the first because he "didn't think they were doing me any good" even though I told him I thought they were and wanted to at least do the second in the series. Ha e intractable pain and my doctor could see three bulging discs on my MRI, be he said my MRI was "good".

In my experience with Dr Estivo, he was very professional, very caring, and very concerned about your well-being. He explained everything to me to my understanding and I am very pleased with him. As far as I'm concerned he is one of the best.

Patient care is the last thing on the his mind. He's a work comp Doctor that is all, his #1 job is to get the person off work comp as soon as possible.
