Surgeons - Clearwater, FL

"I’m 24 and needed back surgery and here’s not another doctor I would want to do it besides him. He treated me as if I was his own daughter and for that, I felt comfortable with him performing surgery on my spine. I would highly recommend. "

"My recent appointment with Dr. Clavenna for a medical concern was exceptionally smooth and efficient. The process—from options for pre-patient paperwork to appointment reminders—was seamlessly managed. Upon arrival at the office, check-in was prompt despite initially seeing a waiting room full of patients. Surprisingly, I was called in just ten minutes later. Dr. Clavenna stands out from typical medical experiences where visits can feel transactional. Instead of simply rushing through symptoms and solutions to get you out the door, Dr. Clavenna took the time to genuinely listen. He initiated casual conversation, asking about my work and hobbies, demonstrating a caring approach that goes beyond mere diagnosis and treatment. For anyone seeking a doctor who is passionate about patient care and takes the time to connect personally, Dr. Clavenna is an excellent choice. "

"BEWARE! After paying the co-pay for the office visit, I was examined by the doctor and there was no other procedure completed. I contacted the billing office and I was told that they charge the co-pay plus a separate charge for the office examination. "

"Although I am very impressed with the level of empathy and professionalism of his staff, I was shocked by the size of this man's ego. I Had been seeking two implants not covered by insurance so I am aware I am paying out of pocket and prepared to do so. He first advised that I wait for 3 to4 months while his 'colleagues' discuss their approach. After a month and a sidetrack down a path of several thousand dollars of orthodontics deemed unnecessary by second opinions I dismissed the orthodontics at a cost of over 500 dollars and asked Claudio to please focus on the surgery necessary for the implants and nothing more. His exact words: "It seems you are trying to manage your care". I answered "of course I am. It is MY care". He became insulted and walked out in a huff stating he could not help me. No explanation. This is EIGHT months of my time wasted which meant NOTHING to him. "
