Not only is…read morehe incredibly skilled, but his bedside manner is hands down the best I have ever had the privilege of experiencing. I have been seeing him for a little over two years now, and his care has truly helped me through a tough time. Being young with MS and all the unpredictable muscle pain it has caused me has been difficult. Dr. Brizzie has given me immense pain relief and has significantly improved my quality of life I never thought would be possible. I can do so much more now. I was struggling with this from 2021 until 2023 until I found him that year. The pain after the second Moderna vaccine was unbearable for me. He was the only one to take my pain seriously, and I will never forget that. He actually listens, really listens, and shows care for his patients. Highly intelligent yet humble. That is pretty rare. He is proactive, kind, patient, and always makes you feel heard. I am ever grateful to him for helping me get my upper body pain and muscle pain significantly reduced. The trigger point injections have relieved my pain like nothing else has and given me the freedom to enjoy life without constantly worrying about it. When you struggle, it has been such a relief to have a provider show compassion. He is the best, truly amazing, and I am very thankful. Fusion Physical Medicine's whole atmosphere gives off zen vibes and tranquility. His practice is so peaceful and warm. It's very clean and comfortable. Everyone is extremely kind here from the staff to the nurses. I cannot say enough good things! Unlike how a stressful hospital environment can be, the vibe here is calm and comforting. Plus you do not have to wait forever. This place is such a gem in California.

I'll be specific in this review of service both from a Medical Professional (ER/PACU) as well as a…read morepatient. Upon arrival I was greeted with a smile, filled out my pre-procedural paperwork then was escorted to the pre-procedure hold area. All of the "Ts" were crossed & "Is" dotted. I was offered Versed, a hypnotic that relaxes the pt which diminishes stress when facing a procedure. I opted for it. No IV was necessary as the injection was given in my arm (deltoid). Melissa &. Tends were the RN's who attended me until transported to the procedure suite. Dr Parizzo introduced himself, asked the appropriate questions regarding my history (Hx) and explains what was going to be done. I related a traumatic experience during a similar procedure by another MD a couple years ago. Hence my hesitation to subject myself to spinal injections again. All I wan say is "Stellar Performance" from this team! You can (or I can) tell a good physician by the his/her team's cohesiveness and demeanor. That's really all you have to go on until your procedure is done. This group gets 5 honest stars from me! From start to finish the entire team, Nurses- Melissa, Brenda & Emily (OR Suite) X-Ray Tech-Art Front Desk- Yvonne Dr Parizzo This team was extremely professional, spot on with delivery of care coupled with an authentic caring attitude that allowed me to relax and place my trust in them to do their respective jobs appropriately. As the owner of the former "Patient Advocate Corporation" I can say with confidence that I recommend this Group without reservations.

She really cares about her patients. I felt I needed to update with good things too. Another bad review. This office cannot get their act together. A procedure that they said I needed has been rescheduled by them twice. I drove 25 minutes each way to get to the office only to be told that they don't have the correct meds. Are you kidding me? The procedure was supposed to be done last week and you still don't have the correct meds? How does this happen? How is there such a lack of organization in a medical office? They opened at 8am. My procedure was scheduled for 9:45am. I even called to confirm the appointment time. Plenty of time to figure out they messed up again and call me prior to my wasting my time driving here and taking off work. I still don't have the correct MRI approvals from April. I seriously have no idea what is going on in this office but if you want anything to get done, don't go here. Unfortunately, my doctor won't refer me to another clinic.

If the choice were mine, I would not come back to this place. I was referred here after I slipped…read moreand fell while hiking and hurt my shoulder. First it took quite a while to get the appointment and the office was hard to reach. On both my visits, I waited over an hour to be seen even though I was there at my scheduled time. On my first visit I was told I would get 2 prescriptions for nsaids. I had to call multiple times to get it sent to my pharmacy and it took more than a week. On my second visit, I heard them go into the room with a patient who had arrived well after me even though I had waited over an hour. To be fair, when I stepped out of the room and mentioned that I was first, the Dr did finally see me first. I also needed an mri and it took quite a while to get one and it was by sharp Mary birch which is really inconveniently far from Oceanside. On that second visit, the Dr went over the results and offered a shot to my shoulder or a referral to an orthopedic Dr. I chose the orthopedic referral and after that he was very dismissive. I waited a few weeks and never received a referral. When I called back, they told me I just needed to pick a Dr and make an appointment. That is not how my insurance works, so I called my insurance and had them call the office to tell them how it works. I still never received a referral and now have to go to my primary care Dr to get that referral. I'm not sure if all of their offices are this disorganized and uninformed or if it's just this one, but I wouldn't go back. There were so many patients in so much more pain than me that had to wait like I did, their suffering was hard to see.

Dr Neville Alleyne has proven himself to be both caring & competent when taking care of his…read morepatients. I saw him a few years ago after a 5 year old fusion done at Scripps LaJolla failed. (He had previously operated on a couple of my friends.) His suggestions were conservative care due to my age. (Mid 50s and 2 fusions already. This fusion would fusion 3 levels to repair the one level that failed.) His concern was that I have a 20 year old fusion that could fail someday since the usual life of a fusion is 10 years. He didn't want to see me with my neck totally fused by my mid 60s. He suggested keeping my eye out for new procedures. He was right. Now there is an injection available to help plump up the disc often saving a person from a fusion. There is a reason that Dr. Alleyne was just one of 50 surgeons appointed to the board of the National Spine Health Foundation in 2022.

Long story short, i walked in and explained u had the same pain that i had experienced MULTIPLE…read moretimes before finding a surgeon to remove a tumor/lipoma from my lumbar area. But no... i had to have those 2 EXPENSIVE MRI tests both with and without contrast. He said it PROVED NO TUMOR but needed the most complex surgery with multiple fusions/cage etc using that Mazor Robot he requires to do surgeries. NOW i wonder if that is due to his ineptitude? But do a YouTube search for Mazor Lumbar Surgery. It is utterly BARBARIC compared to the same surgery for this same set of fusions a few years prior that went PERFECTLY. BUT this man ( i will NEVER refer to him as doctor or surgeon!) PERMANENTLY ENDED LIFE AS I KNEW IT when he butchered me. The complications came INSTANTLY and he tried to have me transferred to a nursing home as i was unable to even stand much less walk. I suppose he had a commission for that as well... I was FORCED to sign myself out of Hospital AMA because he refused to release me! My primary care doctor INSTANTLY began finding errors and problems with this surgery. You see he DID find my tumor i told him was my problem. His own words were " it is the BIGGEST TUMOR i have ever seen in my career, larger than a huge grapefruit". Well his next CRIMINAL NEGLIGENT ACT was going ahead and still doing the NOT NEEDED FUSIONS with that barbaric robot. On my 65 year ild body. FAR too invasive for my age... next criminally negligent act ACCORDING TO HIS OWN HOSPITALS INTERVENTIONAL RADIOLOGY DEPT? They explained it was purely criminal to knowingly close me up with a now FOOTBALL size gaping hole in my lumbar spine/back. It developed a HUGE Seroma. Bloody fluid and guts that could kill me untreated. So the cure? MONTHS of weekly visits back to the Cancer Radiology to have them try injecting PAINFUL BEYOND WORDS CHEMICALS into me trying in vain to close this huge, cavernous s open hole inside me. and let not forget my copay EACH WEEK of over $200.00! After months and nearing financial bankruptcy with ME now suicidal i explained to the hospital to find me another surgeon to FIX this or i would just end this miserable life i now had. It took 2 MOTE surgeries by 2 different Surgeons to fix the hole left inside me... by the way. Alleyne never ONCE followed up or offered ANY help. Oh and the kicker? For pain guess what he did for me? Suggested i take TYLENOL! My primary dr BEGGED me to rightfully sue for Malpractice. But this all drug on too long for me to be within the time frame allowed! TriCity Hospital has just informed me they are REVOKING his surgical privileges and calling it his RETIREMENT due to many failed recent surgeries. His MALPRACTICE lawsuits are now beginning to show up online as well. For God's sake, for YOUR sake, avoid ANY contact with this ender of lives. Because i have now spent my entire life in a wheelchair since his April2014 Butchery of my LIFE that completely died thanks to him. Sold my 4wd truck, my 4 Motorcycled, Surfboards, ocean AND white water Kayaks. And i began a life sitting in this chair since. The ONLY time i have ever left this home interior was to go to monthly Pain Management or Doctor appointments... the nightmare of Opioid Pan Drugs began as my life faded away. EVERYTHING ended for myself and wife the day we met this slick incompetent would be (but never WILL be) any sort of qualified medical professional. All for a BARBARIC version of a surgery i had ALREADY had done perfectly just a few years prior. Lastly. It is the most incompetent office staff ever assembled! If they answer tour call never expect any resolution to your query. If you leave any voice mail? FORGET any sort of response. Run. Just RUN!

Damage is usually irreversible it is the quality of life without as much pain as possible we strive to live. I am 60+ years old and appreciate that he never played the old age card. He is compassionate and caring. I once had a problem with IV line and the next time Dr inserted it himself before my injection.

Dr. Moazzas literally rebuilt my spine! I have what I call an erector set keeping my spine straight. I am also 2 inches taller. I won't kid you, this was a serious surgery. In fact, there were three in a row. I trusted Dr. Moazzaz based on how professional he and his staff are and the fact that the doctor is a very exacting in all he does and expects his staff, the hospital staff, the home health care staff and the physical therapy staff to follow his instructions for getting the best post operative results. Dr. Moazzaz has a calming and friendly presence while keeping a very professional demeanor regarding the patient's issues. He and his staff carefully explained what I was getting into. I won't kid you, this surgery is very big. the first two weeks post surgery were the hardest, but the doctor and staff made sure I had the appropriate medication to help me make it. I am eight weeks out from that surgery. I have been walking four miles a day since week four, and have just started physical therapy. The pain I felt before surgery is gone. All my clothes fit me and I'm extremely happy with the results. A full recovery will take time, but I'm a very determined person who stays active. The most important advice I can give is to keep moving after the surgery. If you are sedentary, it's not the doctor's fault that you aren't getting better.

Over the course of traeting my shoulder I tried acupunture, ART, RRT, massage, clincal fasting, physical therapy, modaility training, and a host of both topical and oral mediacations.

I was also looking at a biceps tenodesis to remove the long head of my biceps tendon. I was dreading surgery and thought that there was no other alternative. Then I found Regenexx.

I am so glad I tried the Regenexx Procedure. Please give this procedure a try before attempting any invasive surgery. You will be glad you did.

Dr Amory definitely does have the warm fuzzies deep deep down inside, he just doesn't lead with them. So don't let his strong, Type A kind of man exterior fool you. He also answered any question I had and did not talk down to me. He explained everything so I could understand. He had the patience of a Saint! A TKR is no joke. I'm just 3 months out from it and I can't say enough thank you's to him for my beautifully perfect new knee and his right hand Deanna.

If I could give this clinic a ZERO I would. Dr. David Amory administered my mom's cortisone…read moreinjection too fast and it caused my mom to go to the ER. My mom felt like she wanted to faint, had shortness of breath, and her face was numb- 5 min. after leaving her appt. While still at the parking lot I asked for help and the MA and the DR. did not take the time to access her/take vital signs. The doctor seemed upset that he was pulled from clinic and stated everything that she was feeling was normal (which it was not-Per ER MD). My mom was lethargic and unresponsive for about 1 min and started to vomit. (She was presenting ALL of the signs for a stroke) I told him that I didn't think it was normal and his response was "what do you want me to do? call the ambulance or do you want to drive her to the ER? it's around the corner." I stated call the ambulance she is not ok. but as I noticed the MA nor the doctor were taking this incident serious and had no empathy I decided that my mom needed to be taken to the ER-so I asked my dad to drive her since we had arrived in 2 separate cars, and I would meet them there after informing the front desk we would drive her ourselves. Not once were her vitals taken at the time of visit nor at the parking lot while she complained of shortness of breath. They made us feel like they did not care for what was happening with my mom. The only thing the MA did was provide me with a water bottle and an ice pack because I mentioned my mom felt like she was going to faint. The MD did not come outside until the 3rd time the MA grabbed him. I had to run to the front desk to inform them not to call the ambulance because we were taking her to the ER. The front desk seemed more concerned than Dr. Amory's MA and the doctor. While we were also in the room waiting for my mom to be seen before all this happened you could hear the doctor jumping from one room to another. Going back and forth seeing other patients. When he administered my moms injection he seemed like he was in a hurry-to were I even mentioned to him " wow that was super quick you are a pro". his response was " I've been doing this for a long time ". He put my moms life at risk. She was admitted to the ER because he did not administered the injection correctly. The ER could not get her BP to go up, it was very low. She developed a fever, severe stomach pain, diarrhea, and vomiting. Her white blood count was very high and her troponin levels were high as well. She also developed an infection due to the injection. She fainted again in the ER and was lethargic and weak. The admitting doctor stated this was all due to the cortisone injection that was not administered correctly. It was injected into her blood stream. If I would have listened to the doctor saying " it was normal" and I would have taken my mom home. My mom wouldn't be here with us now. He put my moms life at risk and did not care. All of this is very upsetting because this was negligence at all levels and malpractice. Dr. Amory's actions show how inhumane he can be and how he does not care for his patients. He is very unprofessional and has no empathy. As a medical professional you want to make sure you treat your patient and you want to be sure to access your patients when they are not feeling well, not assume "it's normal" when clearly things are not normal. HE took my moms medical emergency very irresponsibly and did nothing to make sure my mom was ok. on the contrary he was bothered that he was called outside to "help" (which he did not do). He had an attitude and made me feel like he did not care. To end my note- I requested my moms medical records and most of the things he wrote on my moms medical record are not true. His statement is false when he states he discussed " Different options were discussed with the patient" no options were discussed. He also states in his note "staff and myself went out to the car to assess the patient" "she was breathing normally...We called 911 to have an ambulance brought. We did give vital signs to 911 operator. We noticed that the patient, however, was leaving. The patient and her family drove off in a car" This is all false. He never assessed my mom and vital signs were never taken during or after presenting complications- what vital signs were given? if no vitals were taken by him nor MA at all?? Lastly we left in 2 separate cars because my dad drove my mom there and I met my mom there to translate. How did we leave in one car? The front desk was notified by me that we were leaving because they took forever to call an ambulance for my mom. As a doctor you assess your patient! Why do you have to ask your patient or her family if we want him to call an ambulance knowing well enough your patient was unresponsive with stroke symptoms? As a Doctor-all of this is wrong at all levels and is unacceptable. I will not be taking my mom to this location ever again. He should not be a doctor if he is not following his OATH as a Doct
