Dr. D’Souza is an excellent surgeon. However, the rest of the CORE operation terrible. Not only would I not return to !CORE for anything, and not only would I NOT recommend them, I would advocate against using rhem.

Dr D’Souza is the most pleasant physician I have ever met. He was able to explain the serious issue with my foot in a way that helped me understand the situation, my treatment options and recovery. I feel very fortunate to be under his care.

If you have an injury and go to him for help, it will be the equivalent of him telling you to go home and take a bath.
He did not have the time for me to fully explain what was happening, doubled up on x-rays that had already been done, and then stated the obvious that we already knew. Failing to listen to what was happening that would not show up on an x-ray, not wanting to listen or do a more extensive exam, I left upset, wasted my money, wasted my time, and then I had to go get the the situation resolved with another doctor.. who listened, did a thorough exam, and completely took care of the issue.
He’s probably a very nice person, but when it comes to medical care, I’m looking for a competent doctor who has an interest in his patient’s well-being- not one who’s doing a flyby. Or maybe I should give him the benefit of the doubt for possibly having a bad day..
