Dr. Gilberto Acosta, MD

After the steroid injections didn’t give me much pain relief, the dr suggested radio frequency ablation. This is day three post procedure and no pain since the first day. I could not walk down the driveway to my mailbox before. Now I can collect the mail w/o pain. I would recommend Dr Acosta and his clinic.

I have been a patient of Dr. Acosta for at least 6-7 years and he is seriously the best doctor I have ever had. He has helped me so much and never gives up trying when treatments don’t work. Nick his medical assistant is wonderful! He definitely goes above and beyond. I highly recommend!!

Received third epidural injection from Dr. Agosta. Never inquired effectiveness of previous attempts nor explained why this shot would or could be more effective. Never said a word. Previous injections had limited relief with short duration. Overbooked. If his methods were not working, a discussion of alternatives would have been helpful. My sciatica, my problem. Go fish.

Hands down the best pm doctor! I have been a patient for many years and Fr. Acosta has always done whatever he can to help me. Great Doctor and great staff!!

I have taken my Mom to Dr Acosta for years now. They are very caring about her condition and her age. Always polite and gentle. Thank you to the staff that works there also.

Great Doctor! He always knows what he is talking about and makes me feel comfortable. He is not quick to over prescribe which is great! And he actually takes time with you so he can come to a good conclusion of what treatment will be!!!

I am still new to this area (under 2 years) I moved to northern florida from Ohio & was nervous about starting over & finding a new doc since I had been to same one in ohio for many years! I was extremely lucky in finding a wonderful pain doc in Middleburg fl , Dr Khanna. She was an angel. But unfortunately after only 6 months there I relocated again, more south, to swfl. Once again I found myself having to find a doctor. Not only is good docs hard to come by but I have heard, & witnessed, how florida has been impacted by the pill mills that used to be everywhere! I did some research & was referred to Dr Acosta. My first appt he spent time with me going over all my history & meds & seemed to truly care how my pain was controlled. However, it is extremely hard to get appts & the billing department always bills incorrectly to my insurance & it's a huge headache!! Also, 8 times out of 10 I have to see a nurse practitioner instead of dr Acosta. This can be frustrating. Some of the staff… are very rude. I mean I work in the medical field so I can understand the stress, esp in pain medicine practices! But one of the NP I had to see 1 month was the only doc I have ever seen in my life that made me feel like a piece of crap for being a pain pt. I have made it extremely clear I will not see her again! Vanessa, dr acosta's NP at the sanctuary location, is very sweet & caring! Overall, dr Acosta is a good doc. Whenever I see him I am satisfied with his bedside manner & care I receive. But some of the rude staff, billing errors, & the incredibly hard time getting appts is a letdown.

Treated me for severe lower back pain. It was GONE and hasn't returned now for two years and counting!

He puts me at ease with his calm bedside manner while giving me spinal injections. Very skilled and caring. Nonjudgemental about pain, realizes it is subjective.

Excellent diagnosis capabilities, very courteous, and vast knowledge of pain management. I would highly recommend him to any person in need of a great pain management doc.
