Dr Collazo is the best. I’ve had others provide injections into my ankles but they all quit working in 6-8 weeks. Dr Colazzo knew exactly where to put it and ever since he has taken care of me, those shots are lasting a minimum of 3 months. On top of that he’s very personable and friendly to talk with. Highly recommend him!!

Dr. Collazo did an amazing job treating my injury and surgery. He explains everything in terms that are understandable. He explained the expectations after surgery. This whole experience was great. My only regret was being intimidated by surgery and putting it off for two years. Should have done this much sooner.

Dr Collazo and his scribe were wonderful. My only complaint is the X-ray tech didn't seem to have much compassion. She asked if I was supposed to put any weight on my left foot. I said I'm not supposed to. She said well that's the only way you're going to avoid surgery so you need to stay off it. But did she have a wheelchair to take me to the X-ray room so I wasn't on my foot? Nope. People that are coming to a doctor's office such as this they're in pain and they're suffering. We're not there for social events. So I would suggest keeping a wheelchair close by for the other people and myself that will need x-rays. I was lucky to have the knee scooter throughout this situation. I appreciate all of you guys help and making me feel better about having a broken foot. You guys are rockstars.
