Dr. Michael Franklin Coscia, MD

Strongly suggest getting second opinion. Maybe knowledgeable, feels like a business endeavor, makes judgements, not a good listener. Surgical nurse seems to have more human resource skills he does.

Dr. Was very rude. Canceled surgery and called me stating he could care less if I came. He makes plenty of money, has plenty of patience and is always busy. Went on saying he is very good, would not hurt me and promised he would not injure my nerves. I decided to get surgery like a moron and not get a second opinion. After surgery I woke up and my left leg/foot was on fire, numb and in pain. After 6 months I terminated this hack. Went to Goodman Campbell at IU. Saw 3 neurosurgeons in a year. All 3 said they would have "never" preformed surgery. Therapy and rest. Went to a neurologist, got tested and my peripheral, sciatic, and L5 root or severely damaged by his hands. Even his nurse practitioner told me that he damaged my nerves by Over manipulation and nicking the peripheral nerve. Today my left leg is shot in total pain, I'm bedridden, can not walk far. This from a very fit, athletic productive individual. There's nothing any neurosurgeon can do. As each neurosurgeon told me, never… go to an orthopedic surgeon for spine injury. They're not qualified. I'm living proof. They always seem to put the good reviews on the web not the bad ones but I'll try again. Hopefully I can save someone's life. Once you over manipulate or Nick a nerve it's done. My supposingly injury was mild stenosis instead of moderate-to-severe and a herniated disc L5. The neurosurgeon said the disc woodwould dissolve and absorb in my body and the stenosis was mild and needed no surgery. When I complained my last visit he was very disrespectful and course with me. He's a little money making arrogant, condescending hack. I will be surprised if this goes on the web that's a bad review. But it is. I would be careful with OrthoIndy. They're in in between between IU St Vincent's and Methodist hospitals. I know other people windshield replacement, knee replacements, that struggle today from their doctors.

Been going to him sense 1990 he is the best, kindest Doctor you will ever meet. All ways have time for me. I highly recommend him please see him of you have a situation. We have been thru thick and thin and he pulls me thru.

I have been going to Dr Coscia sense 1990 and he is the BEST!!! He has the best beside manners and so easy to talk too. Never had to wait long at all for him and he is a specialist. I Thank God for him.

Dr. Coscia is superb. People that complain about waiting in a top surgeon's office are like people that complain about the rain but like green grass and flowers. With emergency calls, etc, you occasionally have to wait. And with Dr. Coscia, you may sometimes wait because he is spending ample time with another patient - which he also will with you. He has treated me and one of my children. I would (and do) recommend him highly.

Dr Coscia was very nice and had my best interest at heart during my visit. I only had to wait 10 minutes to see him and he spent a lot of time with me discussing my problem. He did a full exam appropriate for my issue's and went over my x-rays and MRI results with me in full detail. Fortunately I did not need surgery, which I appreciate him being honest about. I would recommend him to anyone. Very caring and an excellent bedside manner!

After waiting for over 2 hours to see this doctor all he did was hog the conversation and give me the run around. Go elsehwere.

Waited for 2-1/2 to see this doctor and then he only spent 5 minutes with me. I would not recommend him at all.
