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.

NECK SURGERY
I had several neck, spine examinations with Dr Coscia at Ortho Indy North, kept telling me and Workers Comp People that my pain did not match his test findings,, eventually, did a test with Contrast that showed I had a cut nerve and ruptured disc exactly where I had been telling him from the beginning visit, he and another Surgeon performed surgery and did a good job with good results. A very arrogant, disrespectful experience with Dr Coscia.

I have had 6 surgeries performed by Dr. Coscia since 1997. As I have explained to several that have looked at my back issues " No one will work on my back except Dr. Coscia." Dr. Coscia has kept me upright and walking, not sure anyone else could have.

I’m very thankful for Dr. Coscia. I saw him when a coworker referred me. I was seeking a second opinion after another surgeon recommended surgery. He suggested we wait and see if my injury healed itself with some time, and it did! I recently over exerted my back and had another flare up. Again, he was great at this follow up consult (seven years later). He treats his patients with kindness and care. I appreciate that as well as his thorough exam and willingness to listen to all concerns. I feel comfortable discussing my spine health with him. Thank you!

Fantastic doctor, took the time to explain what was going on with my back. Does not rush to get to the next patient and you can tell he genuinely cares about you. Surgery was a success and my pain is gone. After I recover from surgery I'm going to feel better than I have in many years. Highly recommend Dr Coscia and OrthoIndy Hospital.
