Dr. Robert Philip Mantica, MD

I was referred to dr Mantica for severe 24hr shoulder pain. Prior to the visit, I had X-rays and MRI. When he walked into the room, he curtly announced his name and went straight to the displayed X-ray and said looks “perfect.” He then noticed the radiologist report, zoomed in on the X-ray and found the problem. After showing him the spot of intense pain, he pressed it hard and I doubled over and nearly puked. His response was “YOU need to learn how to control yourself” and the he pressed it again. Without seeing the MRI he announced that he was going to give me a shot into the center of the pain and that if I moved, there could be damage. I made a beeline out the door to see a terrific doc at Hudson Valley Bone and Joint in Hawthorne, NY. There were people moaning in his waiting room and I wondered if they might have already seen the doctor

I would give Dr. Robert Mantica an excellent rating as a doctor and surgeon. I worked with him for 3 years, getting x rays, injections, and evaluations for my knee and hip arthritis. My hip arthritis progressed to a total lack of cartillage and unbearable pain day and night. Dr. Mantica performed a total hip replacement surgery in October of 2017. The surgery went smoothly and I am recovering well. All of the terrible, unbearable hip pain is gone! For me, this is a life changing operation and I can't thank Dr. Mantica and his staff enough.

Very poor visit, i felt as if i was in a processing unit
