Orthopedists - Stuart, FL

"If you are physically able run, don't walk, away from Dr. Desmon and South Florida Orthopedics. What happened to me is negligent at best, malpractice at worst. I saw Dr. Desman on 10/26/20 for severe osteoarthritis. He gave me a cortisone injection and said he was referring me to PT. On 11/5/20 I used the South Florida Orthopedics patient portal to ask if I needed a referral for PT (Dr. Desmon told me I did not) and what else I needed to do to start PT. I got no response. I called the office and was told someone would get back to me that day. No one called. I left a message on 11/30/20, no one called me back. This is the worst experience I have ever had with any physician. I pray for everyone else who is a patient here that I am the exception and not the rule. I will be seeking alternative care. I will also be contacting the Florida Medical Association to report my experience. I am in significant pain and have been basically abandoned by Dr. Desmon and SFO"

"My husband is having surgery next week and Dr Upadhyaya answered all of my questions even and made me feel at ease about what was going to happen. I am going to become a new patient and he said make your appointments together since you'll be here anyway. Appointments have been made and feel so relaxed about my husband's up coming surgery. Thank you Dr Upadahyaya for everything. "
