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.

Dr Kapasi is nice. He took time to listen to me, evaluate my condition. He is highly educated in this field. He made the right choice for me to have an mri.

Does not know how to diagnose
I had extreme pain in my neck shoulders, spine and hips. All he did was tell me to squeeze his fingers and then he'd pull back. I saw him for 6 months and that is all he did was say squeeze my fingers. I had no range of motion in many areas he never checked that. He sent me to Physical Therapy the therapist couldn't even move my neck. Then he gave me injections of radio frequency ablation and cortisone and that did nothing. We made absolutely no progress in 6 months. I was very fortunate to find a Chirpractor that alleviated my pain and is far more knowledgable than Dr. Kapasi and any other MD Ive seen over the past 20 years. I found him to be a poor doctor

Weak back
My back has been bothering me for years, have been to 4 or 5 other Doctors. Dr. Kapasi took a different approach, and he listened to my concerns. I feel the best I have felt in years highly recommend you to see him if your back is an issue.

A Specialist who loves what he does.
Dr. Kapasi’s knowledge of the spine and his expertise and practice of procedures with my conditions is outstanding. I’ve had several procedures completed by Dr. Kapasi and researched my conditions several times. I’ve written down all questions to ask during my visit as well as my follow-ups. He’s offered me more options and suggestions with incredible results for treatments and has proven to be an outstanding specialist in his profession. I’m very pleased with overall service and attentive office workers at Agility Orthopedics.
