Dr. Mark Ronald Paiste, MD

Dr. Paiste had given me multiple steroid shots for a trigger finger. After a long time we've decided to get the job done and do the surgery. I need to have something permanent done. Obviously the cortisone shots weren't fixing my problem

I feel totally confident in Dr. Paiste and his attention to my issues. I was told by another physician that I better have surgery ASAP for a torn ligament from an auto accident. Dr Paiste took a more conservative approach. Now, almost 3 months past initial dx, I have not had surgery and my hand is fine!!!

He spent less then 9 mins with me, didn't listen to what I was telling him. To get a test done, I have to wait over a month.

Dr. Paiste was running behind, which in itself was okay. However I waited in the exam room for 20 minutes while he was speaking on the phone with a personal call. He then did a very poor exam of my hand. I have carpal tunnel syndrome. Right away his first suggestion was to shoot my hand up with steroids. His exam was not based upon any definitive criteria, he used no instruments to measure strength, or lack of tactile sensation. I would not recommend this physician to anyone.
