The Orthopedic Surgeon I was seeing due to spine issues retired, and he was a terrific doctor…read more Happily I knew of Dr. Femino, and when I suddenly started experiencing knee pain [left knee], I became concerned it was somehow connected to the spinal fusion surgery I underwent last year. Dr. Femino showed me on the xray where arthritis had formed and assured me the knee pain was in no way related to the spinal surgery. Dr. Femino, who advised I would not need surgery, injected my knee (didn't hurt at all) and honestly, I immediately felt pain relief. So, I found myself my new Orthopedic Surgeon! Great office staff too. 2/20/26

It is no surprise that he has earned the respect and admiration of his patients as well as his dedicated staff. As we consulted with New Jersey doctors who we know,one name kept recurring: Frank Femino. "Look no further",we were told three times. "He's amazing. He's the best." Dr Femino's skill, encouragement and humor helped me to regain my strength and courage, following knee replacement surgery... twice.

i've had 2 VERY successful surgeries from the Doctors at Atlantic Spine. my first was a laser…read moreremoval of a centralized stenosis that was shutting down my right arm and causing heart and lung issues in 2012. Dr Liu took all my pain away and gave me back my lifting abilities all while treating me like an actual person, not like a dollar sign as i had been in Erie. he explained the surgery completely, and the team set up everything from my hotel as well as travel to and from the hotel to surgery center. i have often spoke with folks debating on getting surgery done and hands down the most amazing place i've had work done. and because of that, i went to them again last year for detrimental cervical spine issues. In early 2025 was told my spinal column c5-c3 was unstable and in x-rays you could see it tipping off to the left. the pain i endured was so bad, i often thought about just ending existence. my pain was as if someone put red hot coals under my skin and into my muscles from my skull down to my lower lt region and across my entire back and into my shoulder and down both arms...and the pain was 24/7 with zero relief for months. Dr. Bitan preformed a double discectomy with the insertion of 2 cadaver bones and a mesh around c3-5. I INSTANTLY had relief of all that pain. recovery went well as i was back to doing the bulk of my normal life within a couple days and as the pain subsided from the surgery (he really had to move things around as i have a large, muscular neck) i've been accomplishing more and more of my life again (this spring i will go back to cutting firewood) and i've even picked up a few NEW hobbies in life.... Dr. Bitan and the whole team of Atlantic Spine Center ( his whole surgical team as well as office staff -Love you to death Lisa- truly treated me with compassion, understanding (in my darkest hours of pain i was not a pleasant human) and overall REALLY gave me the feeling they cared about my health. they moved mountains for me and i went from putting together end-of-life plans to now living again. i was not sure i would make it to my 50th bday in the end of january, but Dr. Bitan and the team all DID make it happen and now i'm finding more happiness at 50 than i did the last couple yrs of life (turned out this issue had been going on for a couple yrs only on a smaller scale and had built up to life threatening after an incident). i've been sending everyone i talk with through my business (we own a meadery in Erie pa and are on tons of events as well as folks coming to the bar) to Atlantic Spine Center so they can truly find respite and a life again. sorry if i rambled, i'm just THAT happy and excited to have this pain gone AND be able to do my old life PLUS more again. thank you and much love to Dr. Bitan, Lisa and the whole team of Atlantic Spinal Center!!!!!!

When I arrived at the facility, the receptionist escorted me back to room 15, I did not blatantly…read morewalk into anywhere without registering. Obviously if this was true, no one would even know my name or that I had surgery that day. after the coordinator told me to change in to the dress, she did come back to say she made a mistake. A new nurse came in and started asking about the insurance, which startled me, because it should've already been in the system. I told her it's fine, I will go back downstairs, while im downstairs registering, in comes the surgical team upset that im down stair registering. How Ironic?! After making it back upstairs with my wristband, there's another set of 3 nurses just waiting in the room. As im on a call, 1 nurses starts talking to me while im on the call, and I advised her of hw mannerless that was. I told her I couldn't talk to 2 nurses and finish up my call all at the same time. Dr. rizzo enters the room and DEMANDS me to sit down, like im not a patient, but the SLAVE ,that he made as a recent purchase. I advised him id rather stand and then he states he feels uncomfortable about doing the surgery if a physical person can't be there, which I totally understand. I told him thats fine, and then gathered my belongings and left. With that piece of information already in place, I didnt find it feasible enough to stay in a room with 10 people, once the Dr. is basically saying he has to cancel because the policy isn't being followed. I didnt have any issues with that. Th nurse, however, said he didnt know about the medical transport, and that she would tell him. All the while I had already made up my mind to not be seen there. Due to the lack of professionalism on his end and his staff. I felt as though they really wanted to blame me so bad for this and just couldn't admit they lacked communication. Yea! Literally was the worst day of my life. Im glad I dodged a bullet, He then proceeds to find me in the hallway and expressed his emotions towards me and that he wasn't comfortable. Meanwhile, im the patient, and no one is consoling me or asking me about how I felt. The narrative listed below is only 1 side of the story, not 2 sides. FOR THE RECORD, I OBIOMA OKORO, WAS THE ONE THAT CHOSE TO FIND A NEW DOCTOR DUE TO THE MANY OBSTACLES AND CHALLENGES GOING ON. NOT THEM!

He then left the patient he was with and then was like "why are you talking to my staff". He came into my room and said that we are not getting off on the right foot and I'm being "feisty" and "fighting with him". ILITERALLY ASKED WHEN I WOULD BE SEEN!!!!! He then said that we can't get along and that me complaining wasn't going to work. He also asked if I was a new patient, meaning that he doesn't even know his patients. I genuinely think that he was antisemitic and didn't want to treat me from the start. Nonetheless, he's clearly sexist, unprofessional, and RUDE. I was a very uncomfortable environment. I would never recommend him to anyone. It was an awful experience from the minute i walked into the practice.
