Tampa, fl location...l Went to him for an ime for herniated disc and he was very, extremely rude! a medical expert he is not. Told him about my pain and my leg automatically swelled on one side, even brought pictures from after the incident and he rudely cut me off and said he doesn't know what caused my leg swelling but it was not from my herniated disc injury?! What kind of expert Dr is he if he is saying a herniated disc does not cause swelling. This is a copy and paste from a google search of herniated disc symptoms.... ... read more

My younger brother went to Dr Fishman for knee surgery. Several months after the initial consult. a CBC was done, and Fishman put him in the hospital a week later. The knee surgery never took place, as my brother's (56 years old and previously very good general health) health was not strong enough to expect recovery. I looked at his CBC and several items made it obvious he needed further testing, which was never ordered. We got him out and took him to the Tampa General Emergency Facility in Brandon. Less than 4 hours later h... read more

He was beyond rude! He had my wife in tears with his yelling at me! He never examined me physically or even asked questions! He is a paid hired gun by insurance companies!

2008 I had a discectomy with fusion On C4 and C5. I highly recommend him. Now keep in mind nothing will after a surgery like that will ever be 100% again. Exercise, do therapy, and stretch! He made my life better ten fold. I have 2 children and work out every day. I am 40 years old now. I could t even move before I saw him. Thank you for my life back Doctor Fishman.

Saw Dr. Fishman in the Villages for my spine injuries sustained after a car accident. He did a great job and made me feel comfortable

Excellent Spine Surgeon. Did not know that neurosurgeons also perform spine surgery. Dr. Larry Fishman was great and I was comfortable with him doing my ACDF surgery. My neck pain was so horrible before I came to see him and he immediately recommended me to get a fusion due to the herniated discs in my neck. I could not sleep without waking up every two ours and my arm being numb. Now I am able to do a lot more and I can finally sleep again. Thank you so much for helping me!

Hi my name is Michael worthy I was a patient of dr. Fishman in the year 2000. My wife and I was told that he would be making a 2-inch incision to repair a disk. After surgery I awoke with a 12in incision from the crack of my butt up to middle of my back. There was no herniated disc and his explanation was there were bone spurs. Even if that you did not fix the problem. He left my body and such destruction with scar tissue and damage but I was unable to work. Two years later I was on disability and have been ever since. I am ... read more
