Dr. Thomas Peter Pirotte, MD

I am shocked to read the comments about Dr. Pirotte! I’ve been a patient of his for several years and I can honestly say that I have never had a doctor I have respected more. He takes his time to sit down and really listen to me. He asks questions and always spends as much time with me as I need. He is always professional, compassionate and I will miss him when he retires.

I seldom leave reviews, but felt the extremely negative reviews needed a response. I’m a long term patient and former healthcare professional. I have found Dr.Pirotte to be the exact opposite of what I’m reading here. He is very knowledgeable, personable and compassionate. I have never left his practice feeling I wasn’t heard or that he had no respect for my thoughts or opinions. I have and will continue to recommend him to others in need of pain management or addiction treatment.

Does not listen. Does not examine. Does not return calls.

Extreme stereotyping. Totally unethical. Mean, rude and VERY condescending. NO bedside manner. Does not listen to the patient or accept what they say because his mind is made up before he even walks into the room. Has no idea whatsoever of pain management and he simply does not care. I completely agree with the other reviews. He needs to retire. Hope I never have to see him again. Would not recommend him to anyone.

Needs to learn how to talk to people without stereotyping. Negative, mean and overall unpleasant. Hope I never see him again. Has no grasp of pain management.

needs to know when to accept opinions from other health care professionals.
