In 2007 I tore my right rotator cuff. Catana operated on my shoulder three times. The third time he severed my Supraspinatus Nerve, and my muscle atrophied. I was a welder, diver and boat captain. Notice I said was.

Dr. Catana (or as I would call him Dr Narcissism) is about two things: Money and Power. I believe that he orchestrates and manipulates to that end. of fulfilling those two goals of his. He also has the young women employees there treating him like a God inside "the Catana Building." My interactions with him were very upsetting.

The wait was tremendously long. I do not know if this was because of the appt time or if it was because I was a new patient. Some people came in and out, while I waited. I am not sure what the issue was but everything else was five star, from the courteousness of the staff, the attentiveness of the Dr. and the office is state of art. So, for me while the wait was extensive, I will still wait.

He did fine on the surgery and all of that but they make you wait here for a little over 2 hours each time you see him. I'm here at a follow up and it's been an hour and 45 since I got here still waiting on him. This place sucks

I having been seeing Dr. Catana for a shoulder injury. I am so happy that I chose him as my doctor. He is very kind, listens to what I am saying and answers all my questions. He recommended that I get an MRI which was performed right in his office to confirm the tear in my shoulder. It is now three months after my surgery and I feel like I have my life back. Thank you Dr. Catana & staff you are wonderful!!!

Upon reviewing my L-spine MRI, he gave me a shot, meds with 1 refill & cut me loose. I have 5 buldging discs & pheripheral neuropathy. I'd never go to him again!
