South Windsor Orthopedics - James J Rubano

Dr. Veltri cost me 2 years of my life. if you care about your well-being at all DO NOT seek treatment from Dr. Veltri. After tearing my meniscus he did an x-ray, called it good enough; took my money and sent me to PT for a month. nothing improved obviously, because it was a torn meniscus that he straight up misdiagnosed. I later went to a different doctor (2 years later because I still had pain) finally got an MRI (should've been one of the first things he did) and found out I had a torn meniscus. Dr. Veltri displayed an utter lack of work ethic, and quite frankly competence.

I will never ever go back to him and strongly advise against any of my family members going there. If you want to roll the dice with your body/health, be my guest. just don't be surprised if you suffer

Dr Veltri is the best around! Anyone who complains about waiting for his services needs to realize that this is due to the fact that he is a highly desired surgical professional. I'm so glad that I chose to use him for both my broken foot 5 years ago and my acl tear this month.

I have never written a review but maybe this will help others. Dr veltri has too many patients. No one should wait over an hour for a Doctor never mind two hours. I traveled from Massachusetts because I didn't want to start with a new doctor. After leaving his office last week where I did not have my shoulder examined for decline or progress.

He quickly wrote I needed surgery on my rotator cuff absolutely. Gave me a sheet and off I went. I think it was like a 3 min appt. I decided to get a second opinion. I got in on a cancellation at Brigham and women's quickly and saw one of the top docs. He examined me. Looked at the mri and X-rays. Said I do have a tear in my rotator cuff but my pain is from frozen shoulder and surgery would not help that at all.

We decided on anew course of action. I thank God I decided to go somewhere where the doctor spent over 20 min with me and I only had to wait ten minutes and it's one of the best hospitals in the world.

Dr Veltri has no respect for your time. I was in his waiting area for over 2 hours. Then they brought me to the exam room where I waited another hour. When he finally came in he didn't listen to me and made me feel like I was interrupting his day and wasting his time. While in the waiting room I did notice that if anyone under 18 came in they were seen first even though they had later appointments.

Great doctor who has helped me with my badly bruised shoulder from last June 2018. March 2019, will decide not to go for surgery because my physiotherapy is finally working! He's very attentive and cares about you.

I would never go back or recommend this practice to anyone. Terrible medical services combined with dishonest business practices. Some specifics below. They told me i needed a wrist brace for elbow tendinitis and said it was covered by insurance.except that they charge $95.00 for a velcro brace (Breg wrist pro 8) that is $18 at walmart and $20 at amazon. Neverminding the fact that it did nothing for my issue (why not throw in an ankle brace too?!?) they up-charged almost 500% for a small velcro wrist brace that exceeds Aetnas maximum by double for that product.

Small example, yes, but indicative of their practice. The PA was a butcher for something as simple as a cortisone shot, explaining that he likes to make the injury worse so that it triggers the body to make it heal. Through several broken bones, knee replacement, back disc or neck injuries.ive never heard any medical professional admit to making an injury worse as being a good idea and when questioned, the arrogance/indifference they exuded was remarkable.

Amazing doctor amazing team. My son is back playing football thanks to the skill of this surgeon. Highly recommend!

Worse office management EVER. No respect for patients time whatsoever. Lied to over the phone when inquiring if they were running on time.
