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.

My previous doctor left ORA and I was pretty nervous to see who I would end up with. Dr. Collazo immediately erased my worries. He walked in the room with a bright cheerful smile and positive energy. He was very friendly and knowledgeable and answered any questions I had. He also had a different technique on how he does cortisone shots for plantar fasciatis and my feet haven't felt this good in a couple years. Highly recommend!!
