Dr. Sridhar Pinnamaneni, MD

i am not a patient here however a quick story. My father loved the friendly dr he was seeing. My sis and I felt uncomfortable with him. i checked into his history in another state and his license. Took some diligence. He was in trouble, moved out of that state and was hired in an office in Fla where his name didn’t appear anywhere. i called the office manager for info. Two days later he was gone. now i check everyone.

My mother had an epidural done by this doctor. Afterwards my mother had excruciating pain and called the doctor six times a before finally responding. Obviously this doctor doesn’t care about his patients.

Assisting a 100% disabled veteran in The Villages Florida who has been on a significant pain medication for several years through Dr. Pinnamaneni. The Dr. makes him come in every month to pick up his prescription so he can collect insurance. That's not even the problem. Dr. Pinnamaneni stopped doing doing a simple "pre-authorization." He was asked three times by Publix Pharmacy, once by Blue Cross Federal and the patient and I made three trips to Dr. Pinnamaneni's office with this request. On the third attempt, the Dr. "FIRED" the patient - who as a result is in significant pain. Why was the "pre-authorization" so important? Lowers the drug from up to $200 to just $5 per month!!! We couldn't get an appointment with another pain doctor for a month - so the result has been HORRIBLE. Dr. Pinnamaneni has NO ETHICS - and DOESN'T CARE. PERIOD!

I went to this provider and my experience was subpar. Office staff changed my appointment 30 min prior and asked me to come in the next week; stating that she had “ double booked “. Okay, no problem, everyone makes mistakes. However, when I finally got in to see him it was awful. I was humiliated because I didn’t fit into his narrow box. I know they have a caste system in India, but we don’t go by that in US. If humiliation is something that motivates you, this is your guy. If not, stay far away from Dr P.

The PAIN MGMT. So called Doctor would Not Do Well Even in a 3rd World Country. HE IS RUDE, DOES NOT ADDRESS YOUR PAIN, ARGUES with YOU. HE CAUSES MORE PAIN. DON'T GO HERE.....IT's HORRIBLE.??

Best pain doctor in the town, very knowledgeable and caring. All the staff are courteous and minimal wait time. Highly recommend him

Was very happy with the results

New patient here. After keeping me waiting in a treatment room for 20 minutes, a man who I believe was Dr. Pinnamaneni entered the room and went directly to the computer. I assume that it was the Dr., but I never got a look at his face. He was wearing a blue surgical mask which obscured the lower half of his face. He never examined me physically, nor did he ask me any questions about my back pain. After entering the room, he never approached within 4 feet of me. I had difficulty understanding what he was saying, so I asked about the reason for the mask. He mumbled something about doing a procedure in the next room. While I assume that he is knowledgeable about medicine and fluent in English, his accent, the mask obscuring his mouth and his lack of interest in my case made this experience a frustrating one for me. I'll look elsewhere for help.

Dr. P may be an excellent doctor, but I was going to a different Doctor in the complex he owns. Apparently, he had started a policy of putting up signs designating parking spaces for the different Doctors offices. The 3 handicapped spaces are always full and I went there last week and there were 4 vacant spaces but assigned to other Doctors. As I was sitting waiting for a space to open up, a tow truck arrived and blocked the parking lot so no one could get in or out and 4 cars were trying to get out and couldn't creating a potential dangerous situation. His office manager was out playing Hitler of the parking lot. The police had to be called and finally Dr. P. came out, did what his office manager should have done, told the wrecker driver to unhook the car and leave so the trapped cars could leave the parking lot. After all that and the way his office manager treated me, Dr. P lost me and my wife as patients.

Dr. P did not treat me very well! He accused me of lying which is not true! He took me off a narcotic with no tapering plan in place! My husband wrote to him and told him that he was being irresponsible in not giving me a tapering plan. The next day he gave me a new prescription at a lower level! The next time I saw him he said that he could no longer give any narcocics! Then he told me to find another pain management physician! He never wanted to see me again!
