HCA Florida Neurosurgical Specialists - Fort Pierce - Fort Pierce (FL)

1 /5 Stephanee B.: I have been waiting now for over 6 weeks for a simple sign off from Dr. Nduku on a physical therapy plan that was requested by Dr. Nduku himself, after the physical therapist clinic responded to his referral. Ive repeatedly been told by staff members at Dr. Nduku Treasure Coast Neurosurgical Specialists office in Fort Pierce is rarely in his office So my answer from his requested referral just sits on his desk waiting! I definitely feel the neglect and I am constantly in pain and in need of surgery! My insurance company only request that I have a more recent up-to-date physical therapy evaluation, treatment plan beforehand, but due to the unnecessary delay by Dr. Nduku, it has interrupted and interfered with my healing process and request by my insurance company Im unsuccessful cause of. I am very disappointed, confused, and now under alot of duress having to seek for a new neurosurgeon doctor and start the process all over again and possibly have to get another updated MRI *with and without contrast) along with the physical therapy evaluation amd plan. This delay is hurtful and ridiculous! Its a negative way I have been forced to start of the New Years off by!

5 /5 Sherry Hyatte: Dr. Nduku and Melissa are simply wonderful. He did my spinal fusion when I contracted vertebral osteomyelitis and literally saved my life. I cannot praise them enough.

1 /5 Anne Amj: I had an MRI done & was told by my primary I hadspinal stenosis & need to see a specialist. So I contacted Dr. Nduku’s office and scheduled an appt for 3 months later. Finally on August 22, 2024 I saw I guess it was is Nurse practioner Melissa (never saw him) & she went over the MRI with me & told me that I had a couple of herniated disc that were putting pressure on my nerves, which was causing all this pain. The pain was in my lower back, which radiated to the right hip & down the outer part of my thigh to calf. This pain was so bad that walking, sitting and standing was extremely painful. Melissa told me that I would benefit from getting a CT Scan with SI Joint injection which would eliminate this pain. Previously I had received numerous steroid shots which did nothing. Melissa said that this injection goes right into the bone and would eliminate the pain. September 9, 2024 I had this procedure done. NOTHING, NOTHING, NOTHING. Still in excruciating pain, I can only walk short distances like 6’. It is now over 1 month and not anyone from his office has had the decency or courtesy to call me to see how everything went. Very rude & disrespectful on their behalf!!!! I have noticed on other negative reviews a name /number was for the patient to call to discuss the matter at hand. Proper professionalism is not for the patient to reach out to you but for the Dr’s office to reach out to the patient. So unprofessional!!!!

1 /5 Nick Poff: I guess technically I never actually was seen by Dr. Nduku . I was set up from being discharged from the ICU with a follow appointment and he had to cancel my appointment for a “family emergency” and I was told that the next available appointment was not for over 2 months away. What does that say about your medical practices continuity of care? I’ve learned as hospitalist with Lawnwood Dr.Nduku has thousands of patients. How can one Dr. Provide quality care to that many people ? That’s right he can not. A follow up on a traumatic brain injury should not be rescheduled. This caused a ripple effect and resulted in my FMLA paperwork not being filled out in a timely manner. I lost my job. I wish there was something lower than one star because, that was my experience.

5 /5 Steven LaFleur: This is the best Office you will ever go to and Amanda is the best and don’t let them lie to you because they never lie. They don’t truth and get hugs if you act like that, you better call me and I’ll tell you how to do it this is Office.
