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.

I have a spinal birth defect that was not diagnosed until I was 69. Dr Mantena treats the issue and patient and I drive over 300 miles just to see he as and his staff. No distance will keep me away from him. Highly recommend.

Excellent Doctor
My experience with Dr Mantena has been excellent. Very professional and very caring. He has always taken time to explain everything and provide insight into the treatment of my chronic back pain. I love his approach and the options he gives me in my treatment. I feel like I am part of the decision making process, as it should be. He has been treating me for almost two years now. He has my utmost respect.

No Show Doc
Terrible doctor, who routinely doesn’t show up for his clinics. Leaves his patients just hanging by not showing up repeatedly. Once you show up for your appointment then they tell you he’s not coming so you reschedule and go back home or wherever you show up for your next appointment and he may or may not be there. After a while this gets very tiresome.

Dr Mantena ,really helped me with my neck pain that I have had for years. I was really bothersome with with numbness and tingling. But he really cared and took time and did trigger points and injections, in addition to therapy. He really is genius. His staff really were readily available and were very responsive.

Love the Dr. The temporary injections he gave me really helped my back. The office staff is nice but it is IMPOSSIBLE to get a hold of. They don't return phone calls and did not follow through with filing the correct papers with my insurance company. I'm not sure how he stays in business, it's a shame bc I think he could really help me. He cant help if I cant get a hold of office!!

I have been seeing Dr Raju for close to two years. He has always been friendly and professional. He always listened. I was on massive amounts of pain medicine. He made changes and did several procedures. Now after 3 long years of pain management I am completely off pain meds. He has worked wonders for me. The staff is always happy and friendly and cares for there patients . I never review anything but I really appreciate all the great care. I would not be able to work without the wonderful car

I was very satisfied with my experience the day of my procedure. Dr. Raju spent a lot of time discussing my procedure and answering my questions, so I was very comfortable knowing what to expect. The entire staff was very caring and professional at all times and it was a very positive experience. I felt pain relief that same day and would highly recommend this practice.
