Dr. Chelsea M Didonato, DO

She set me back terribly in my recovery from what turned out to be a herniated disc in my spine pressing on a nerve. First, she acted like I inconvenienced her for scheduling an appointment even though I was experiencing constant nerve pain. I explained how I was in too much pain to sleep or sit down and that I had numbness in my left foot, which I have since learned can be irreversible if not treated quickly. She asked me what I wanted to do about it (?) before recommending physical therapy. Then, she never called in the referral to a PT place until I called their office to ask them to do it a week later. She referred to my condition as a very general "lower extremity pain" to the PT, which misled my physical therapist, who was outraged on my behalf after gaining a better understanding of my condition. As soon as I saw a specialist who listened to what I had to say, I received instant relief, as I needed rest and medication, and not PT to make the injury worse. She caused me great… harm and wasted my money, in addition to insulting me.

Worst doctor I have ever been to! I met with her 3 times and every time she did something wrong. Last time I had to call a patient advocate to have an insurance problem corrected.
