Dr. Marvin Pietruszka, MD

Dr. Peitruszka works for insurance companies and denies medical care for patients even though requests meet treatment guidelines. He forgets that he went to medical school to help people and instead chooses to do the dirty work of insurance companies. There are better physician options with providers who care about the health and well-being of their patients.

Dr. Pietruszka works for insurance companies to deny medical care to patients even though requested treatments comply with medical guidelines. I am not sure why Dr. Pietruszka went to medical school or continues to practice medicine since his primary motivation does not seem to be to help people recover from injuries.

Dr. Pietruzzka works for insurance companies in order to deny basic medical care such as anti-inflammatory medications to patients. He forgets that he went to medical school in order to help people and instead chooses to do the dirty work insurance companies. Much better treating physician options out there with physicians who care about a patient's health and well-being.

This doctor works for cid management for the employer's. When an injured employee's doctor tries to help and get the injured / disabled employee treatment through works comp, the employer pays this doctor, to find any reason to deny treatment. Even the most basic of treatments like pain medication to help the employee keep working. How can this doctor live with himself. When a honest doctor wants to help someone suffering, this doctor has no problem taking money to make up any reason to deny it.

OMG!!! Don't choose this guy's, ridiculous customers services!!!!!! Its 4:12pm ,I'm still here from 1:30pm !!!!!! And still waiting for doctor to visit me!!! They says it takes 30min more to doctor come n see you ! They didn't tell me that simple dr visit takes almost 4 hours! waste of time :( It's 4:22pm and didn't see the doctor yet! Finally Dr visited me, and they got my blood test n I told them I just ate lunch, they didn't care cuz they wanted to charge insurance anyway... Don't waste your time, it should be mechanic shop, not dr office!

I have seen a lot of poor reviews about this doctor. I would like to say that I feel some reviewers are being unfair. Yes, there is a long wait time and it's an old and "not pretty" facility. But the wait time is due to the fact that Dr. Pietruszka is the ONLY physician in the West Valley (other than Olive View) who takes Medicare. He also has a lot of work comp patients. Hence, the crowded facility and long wait times. It is worth it if you want to settle your work comp claim. The doctor also speaks fluent Spanish and is very caring even if he seems rushed sometimes. His diagnoses are spot-on. He will do his best to help you with your work comp claim. He supports the "average Joe." If you feel you are made to wait too long, or that the staff seems rushes, it's because the clinic is just so busy...why? Because employers and insurance companies are out to screw you, and a good work comp doctor is hard to come by. Please bear this in mind. Dr. P is a great doc!

This doctor, and, his staff, have no sense of time at all! Oh!, you have an appointment?, that's nice!, who cares? You'll sit, for a while, in the main lobby, just to be called, back to one of the examination rooms, just to sit there ENDLESSLY!, just to have the..umm..Doctor, speed into the room, ask you some rapid fire questions about your health, does not completely explain test results, or really diagnose anything!, and, always seems to be in such a hurry, until, normally, there's no real time for any questions! If you have money, or, good insurance, he has NO PROBLEM, sending you for tests!, in which, I'm inclined to believe, often, are either bogus, unnecessary, or, fraudulent! I would not refer this doctor to an enemy of mine!

This is the most unorganized doctor I have seen in my life. Your appointment is at 9am and he finally sees you at about 4. He has so much going on that he is slow and needs to retire

The worst experience with a doctor and the medical staffs I have ever had. I had to change my father's primary doctor after 2 months of not getting any service from him. He orders the blood test without interpreting the results and adjusting the medications. If you wants the results of the blood tests, you will be ordered to go to his office wait for hours and in the end, he will order a repeat test and you have to wait for another three weeks and when you call for the results, you will here the same thing over and over and over. You have to go to the office with no appointment, as the clinic is a walking clinic, means that you have to forget about the value of your time, sit there for hours and then you will be send to another room to wait for a few more hours, without the result being discussed with you. The rude Dr does not even bother to go to the room and talk to you,....

The worst doctor I have ever met. Rude and there is a total lack of care about the patients. I was left waiting over 4 hours to see the doctor and he walked in and was completely rude. He expected me to sympathize for how hard he works. The staff never knew where he was and asked me to tell the doctor how mad I was. The rooms were very dirty, patient information from other patients was left out in the open in the room and there were ants on the sinks and floors. Avoid this doctor if you value your since of sanity, well being, time or health. This doctor will make you worse!!
