Waited more than 2 weeks for a Zoom appointment set for 12:10 1/28/22. I signed in at noon. 12:19 I called office to make sure I was signed in. Was told they were running a little late. Called 1:33 would be with me in 5 minutes. Called left message at 2:17. Called 2:58 and the receiptionist tried over 4 times to get them to pick up. At 3:12 Dr. Cannestra's nurse called me to say he had left. REALLY they let me sit in pain on a chair at my computer for over 3 hours. Maybe I should bill them for a 3 hour appointment. I am sure... read more
After waiting 4 months for a telecall, on the day of the call, I waited 3 hours for the call to start. When I was told that they couldn’t open the records of MRI that I had sent them in April ( it is now July 15) When I told them I wanted to cancel everything, they offered me a call the next day at 2:45. So I agreed to try again. It is now 20 minutes beyond the appointed time and I am still waiting for the call to start. I have tried phoning the office but cannot get through to talk to anyone. So, I have told them to cancel ... read more
Only get 1000 characters for the review. Not nearly enough to explain. Bottom line is, Dr. Cannestra is a great surgeon. His staff is horrible. Next to impossible to get a response (other than answering service) and MA Ward thinks it's okay to give doctorate-level medical advice over the phone without understanding the malady. The good surgery was not worth the literal and figurative pain and very real frustration from using this office. I would not recommend. There are plenty of good alternatives in North Florida.
Cannestra operated on me twice. The first time it did not work so he said I needed another spinal operation. It did not work either. He will not return my calls or give me a physical appoint to see examine my problem. He only said go back to your pain specialist. He has not done anything either that helps my pain.
WHAT visit?? I was scheduled for a Zoom visit and was called and told appointment was moved up two weeks, to the next day. I had had updated MRIs as requested, got everything filled out and sent to him and wrote down my questions, installed Zoom.... logged in, then, at the exact time of the appointment, got a call from someone at the office that he couldn't help me and I should try injections. I have BEEN getting injections and am not supposed to because of other health issues, but if he'd spent five minutes looking at what ... read more
I had emergency back surgery during the corona virus pandemic. I had completely lost the feeling in my leg and foot (sciatica) and was in extreme pain. Bedridden for 10 days prior, I was desperate to get this done and was worried the executive order would prevent it. Dr Cannestra came highly recommended by my doctor as well as others. I couldn't be happier with him and the job he did performing the surgery. It went better than expected and he was just a great guy all around. I wasn't even worried going into surgery. Highly r... read more
I trust Dr. Cannestra completely. He is thorough, answers all questions and takes you through the process step by step, including what to expect post-op. He has performed 2 previous surgeries on me and the outcomes were outstanding. I can't say enough about him.
I like Dr Cannestra because he's straight to the point, nononsense. As a retired operating room health care employee I truly appreciate this. I've had four previous spinal surgeries prior to finding Dr Cannestra. He repaired my current problem and is going to correct some previous failed fusions. I didn't want to continue with the previous surgeon and couldn't find another that would touch me. Dr Cannestra has done a great job for me for this surgery and I will only allow him to operate on me.
Dr. Cannestra did a Chiari Malformation with syringomyelia surgery on me back in June. Dr. Cannestra was very thorough and informative. I have nothing but great things to say about Dr. Cannestra and Dean and the care I received. The only complaint I would have is that Laura his medical assistant is not very prompt or thorough.
