I don't return to offices where that's the Norm rather than th exception. Its clean. A decent selection of reading material. I generally see Dr Kola as I'm a long established patient. I'm 100% satisfied with the care I receive. As a final note the nurses, MAs, PAs, are out of this world. They can answer almost anything you need to know, and often do yet they still bring it up to the Dr. for the final word. I can highly recommend this office for pain control, and injury assessment, and care.

I'd prefer Dr Cole if possible . The other doctor is fine but the attending nurse although she is probably very experienced lol didn't shut up for a minute.. and it was like diareah of the mouth lol she went on and on about her work experience like a job interview .. and when I'm about to go through a procedure that is not very comfortable I'd prefer calm quiet and the full attention from the doctor and nurse... I couldn't relax with the chatter.. I would suggest perhaps they play some native American flute music or nature sounds during the procedure... and conduct interviews at another time. Please tell them What I said..

Dr. Silverstein saw me as soon as I was released from the emergency room and fit me into his schedule for emergency surgery. I also immediately felt comfortable with him, as he was straight forward. Fast forward 1.5 years later, I need my left hip replaced and there was no hesitation to return to him. He and his PA were wonderful, as well as the office staff. I'm honestly shocked by some of the reviews, because my experience has been great.

This form of therapy takes cutting edge technology and combines it with the body's natural ability to heal itself. I had the surgery done at Lakewood Ranch Hospital, which is the best hospital I have ever been to. The attention to detail, the level of care and the information that was given to me by the staff and by Dr. Bennett was awesome! I had my surgery on a Friday and went to see Dr. Bennett on Monday for my first check up. Then went back 3 weeks later and again another 3 weeks later, all at no additional out of pocket cost to me. My recovery included some physical therapy with Mia, in the Bennett Orthopedics office in Venice, which I might add is very knowledgeable, friendly and an absolute pleasure. I also did exercises that you can find on Dr. Bennett's website, and then basic things such as ice and elevation. I would also like to mention Henry who works in the front office. He was always so very helpful, I had some questions concerning my insurance and he looked into it for me, without hesitation. Henry is pleasant, courteous, and makes you feel at ease. I have now started a 15 day workout challenge, with intense weight training, doing exercises such as mountain climbers, burpees, jumping jacks, plus weight training. Prior to this knee surgery I have not been this active in 6-7 years. During those 6-7 years I had cortisone shots, multiple times, the knee drained a few times a year, prednisone and other medications to help with the swelling and pain, all to no avail. THIS WAS THE BEST DECISION I MADE WITH THE HELP OF DR. BENNETT AND HIS VAST KNOWLEDGE AND CUTTING EDGE TECHNOLOGY!!!!!
