Dr. Oruene Reviews
Based on: 1 review -Add review
I got an appointment when I needed one.
They kept things moving and on time during my visit.
I received a correct diagnosis and up-to-date treatment.
I was given specific advice on lifestyle changes I can make to improve my health.
The provider really listened, gave me the time I needed, and put me at ease.
We discussed treatment options and choices I have.
The provider addressed traditional and alternative medicine treatment options in an open-minded way.

I went to see this Dr for pain management because I am about to receive a settlement for my back and they are not going ...to do a surgery and i am going to live with pain for the rest of my life so with that said they also told me i needed to see a pain specialist. This is why I went to see Dr.Oruene. This Dr said that there is nothing wrong with my back and tried to bend me until I yelled at him to stop! He hurt me so bad I was in worse pain then when i got there. I do not recommend this Dr. He doesn't care about the patients. I hope this helps with choosing on who you go with. more details
