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.

He gave me my life back!
I was falling down and was severely limited and miserable after a failed back surgery by another doctor. Dr. Cassinelli redid the prior surgery, corrected and fused another level and I am so much better. Dr. C is very frank, but he was kind to me and I grew to really appreciate him over the course of this extensive treatment. Thank you, Dr. C!

The most non caring, disgusting piece of a doctor
First off his male nurse was horrible and did not write down any of my symptoms to give to the doctor. The doctor came in was extremely dismissive and uncaring of what I was going through. He started his conversation off with if you’re going through anything other than spinal issues I can’t help you and you need to go to another doctor. At that point, I should’ve just got up and walked out. He was showing no concern in wanting two help me he was looking for ways to get out of helping me, so that he can get on with his day .. and then threw some steroids at me through prescription which I would not be picking up because I would never follow up with this doctor or recommend anyone to go to him, he’s not for you or your well-being. With the amount of years that he has and this field I expected more, but I’ll be going to a young doctor. This guy is too comfortable in his field and feels he can do and say whatever just so he can hurry and get back to his desk to do nothing I guess.

Rushed vist
Felt like the hole visit was rushed, my wife asked all the questions on the phone about accessing my MRI on the computer the receptionist told her it was ok. My Dr refused to pull it from the computer and didn’t want to look at it on the phone, I drove an hour to get here and was very disappointed, I was not particularly happy with the at most we can do conversation if he were to access my MRI, waist of time and money, will not return.

Dismissive
I went to see Dr. Cassinelli two weeks after a car accident that left me with a neck injury that was progressively getting worse and debilitating me with pain. I booked an appt with him because he was the only person available to see me that day and I was starting to feel desperate for help. I can confirm he is just like what was said in the other negative reviews. I felt completely dismissed and could barely explain myself before being cut off. I waited at least an hour and a half for him to give me maybe 3 minutes of his time. A physicians job is to make you feel cared for, and this guy did anything but that. Needless to say I left his office feeling completely defeated with little to no direction for what to do about my situation.

Highly Recommend
After seeing several doctors for back issues and herniated discs, Dr. Cassinelli was the first doctor to give me all the details and finally felt like I had clarity. He addressed all my questions and even though he was out of my network, it was worth the money spent. I highly recommend him for any injuries.

Appointment Felt Rushed
I read a few reviews where people said Dr. Cassenelli was kind, faced great Bed side manners and listened intently. However my visit seemed very rushed. He did not do a thorough examination. Instead he jerked on a few of my fingers, pulled my arms then referred me to one of his associates. Mind you I was there for a neck injury. I paid for this visit for nothing. A complete waste of my time.

DO NOT TRUST
Dr. Cassinelli cannot be trusted! He will say whatever the insurance company wants so that I can lose my job even though I had a bad injury. It's sad to see that doctors these days are bought by lawyers and insurance companies.

Awful experience
This man will say anything the insurance company wants him to say without even personally examining you. The worst, corrupt form of medicine I have seen in decades. Stay away from this doctor Cassinelli!

Unprofessional, downright rude! I arrived today at 1:45 for a 2:00 appoint with Cassanelli, MD. The person at the front desk informed me that I would not be seeing Cassanelli, and would see his PA instead. I explained that I had seen the PA on a previous visit, she had ordered both an X-ray and an MRI and said I would need to see the MD so that he could evaluate my condition. I completed both tasks in a timely manner. Today, and am told, with no advance warning, that the MD was not going to honor an appointment that was scheduled more than two weeks prior. NOT a class act!

I think this man has too many legal issues to be able to give people like me good attention. I had so many issues with scheduling, billing, and the doctor himself. The most careless, negative doctor I have had so far. He wouldn’t even touch me to examine my issue yet he knows the answer to the problem?!!! I will seek care with someone who still knows the Hippocratic Oath.
