Excellent gentleman and doctor.
I did not feel heard. He interrupted me to dictate in the middle of the appointment. Was very rude in asking why I was there if it was for a second opinion. I was referred there by someone else in the practice as all conservative measures have been exhausted. He was so rough in the physical exam. I was in tears it hurt so bad. I was able to give him a little more backstory before he left the room that were very relevant to my concerns. However, I left the appointment feeling as if it was incomplete and I felt brushed off. He spoke to me as if I was stupid. 27 years working in medicine and I’m appalled at the way I was treated.
Very professional compassionate and knowledgeable

We are a praying family and his name is lifted up in prayer every day. Thank you again. God bless you Dr.. tresser Now please take our Rx for life is KEEP IT SIMPLE TAKE TIME TO STOP AND SMELL THE WHOLE ROSE GARDEN NOT JUST THE ONE ROSE.
I trust him completely
Lack of empathy from physician. After waiting 30 minutes passed my appointment time, I felt rushed once I was finally in the examination room with the doctor. Although we did not agree with the course of action to be taken, I felt unheard, misunderstood and left the office feeling defeated and disposable.
Just a bit late, but I can understand that. He seemed a bit rushed. I was rushed also because he was 45 minutes late. Luckily I don’t need surgery, but I didn’t really get the explanation that I needed the results from an EMG. I had to email them and ask for them. All in all Florida orthopedic Institute is an awesome place to go
