Dr. Vanessa Ortiz, MD

DO NOT COME HERE! Place is a scam. Upon my first arrival for my consultation, they asked me to pee in a cup, which I did. Seemed like a normal thing for a doctor to ask me to do so l didn't question it. Then I got a bill for $140 for a DRUG TEST that I never asked for or was notified about. On top of that DR. Venessa Ortiz could not answer my question as to why they would drug test me (I was there for a herniated disc between my C6-C7) and told me to talk to the billing department about it. On top of that, she couldn't even help me with my problem and told me I would need to go out of pocket if I wanted to get the epidural shot that I was originally told I should get for some pain relief.

Dr. Ortiz was very complete in her evaluation of my back problem, questioning and examining me and reviewing reports I provided. She explained her initial diagnosis and went over an Electrodiagnostic Study (health of my nerves and muscles) she wanted to perform. She also suggested a Lumbar Medial Branch Block to be done by her associate Dr. John Welsh. I was very pleased with information she provided, allowing for all my questions about the procedures. After my appointment, I felt comfortable and confident about scheduling the procedures Dr. Ortiz had recommended. I would also note she is an excellent listener.

I have been to a variety of physicians in an attempt to resolve my lower back pain. I feel fortunate to have found Dr. Ortiz! She actually listened to me and was very empathetic! (Many of the doctors I have seen were very abrupt and condescending.) She was very thorough. Her diagnosis and treatment plan were excellent. I am feeling better now than I have in years. I am so grateful to Dr. Ortiz. The Front Desk is excellent, also!

She's a very abrupt dr and her office is run very poorly. Don't go here.

Dr. Ortiz is awesome, professional, compassionate and a wonderful provider. I have been her patient for a couple of years and she has been so helpful. She takes the time to listen to my concerns and address's any questions I may have. I would recommend her to anyone I know looking for assistance with pain management and treatment options.

Dr. Ortiz is one of the few who takes the time to listen to your needs and whole heartedly feels for the patients pain. She genuinely cares and respects me as a patient, and at no time has she ever made me feel rushed or judged. Dr. Ortiz shows compassion and professionalism when dealing with my medical needs.

Takes her time with me as a patient. Answered all my questions and gave me the necessary referrals for physical therapy and surgery consults

She makes sure you understand not only what your condition may or may not be, but also what options are available for treatment. She is very conscientious about avoiding surgery.

After suffering from chronic pain for more than 20 years, I finally found the right pain management doctor and clinic. Combination of medications and several treatments have been successful in controlling pain levels, rather than narcotics. Very satisfied.

Dr. Ortiz has listened and validated with reasonable tests while also being compassionate. I trust and highly respect Dr. Ortiz.
