Lisa M Bartoli's Online Review Report Card

I was referred to Dr. Bartoli in the midst of an episode involving a herniated disc that was pinching a nerve and causing the worst pain (down my leg) I'd experienced in my entire life. I arrived at her office in so much pain I couldn't manage sitting on the bench in the waiting room and the manager kindly let me lie on a bed in an empty treatment room while I waited for the doctor.When the appointment started, Dr. Bartoli was phenomenal -- so caring and knowledgeable. She conducted a physical exam, quickly diagnosed the likely issue, outlined a care plan and made sure I understood my next steps (X-Ray, MRI and physical therapy). She never once victim-blamed (such as telling me my back issues were my own fault due to my body, work and exercise habits or otherwise) which is sadly very rare in any health provider, especially as a woman patient.I started physical therapy right away and once the imaging was done (within a couple of weeks) she took the time to walk me through them and explain what had likely happened to me -- nothing acute or dramatic -- just a lifetime of lumbar back issues catching up with me. The physical therapy practice she sent me to was phenomenal, and I later learned she has a strong connection there and sends many fortunate patients to them. Dr. Bartoli and my PT team proceeded to stay in good communication the whole time I was under their care, making sure my care plan evolved and stayed on point throughout the process, which I really appreciated. I was on the mend within weeks and fully healed/pain free in four months. This was one of the best overall care teams I've ever worked with for any health issue. They all refuse to take any credit, saying my recovery is down to me and my willingness to do the work. I have been so impressed and am truly grateful to have met Dr. Bartoli. I enthusiastically recommend her to everyone.

Dr Bartoli is an excellent physician. She is knowledgeable and highly experienced. She takes a great deal of time speaking to patients to understand their individual issue(s) and works to develop a treatment program unique to the individual. Highly recommend.

horrific doctor. she misdiagnosed a very serious condition, which led to my developing a disability. she then told my disability insurance that nothing was wrong with me, leaving me destitute after my disability insurance claim was denied. she told me she did this because she doesn't believe in disability - "it's just people being lazy." she said if i wanted she'd prescribe heavy painkillers and i needed to "get my ass back to work". this woman should have her license revoked.

I've never had this experience, it was a while ago and I can't forgot the experience. Never found what was wrong with me but was rude and she actually yelled at me over the clinic hallway. Blamed my pain on weak muscles without finding the underline cause. treated me like a hypochondriac. But also - I was just scared of here which is totally ridiculous. I spent so much money on exams and therapy and only now, two years and a half later, thanks to another doctor I found out I have Hip Bursitis.

I've never such a bad  experience, it was a while ago and I can't forget  it. Dr Bartoli never found what was wrong with me but was rude and she actually yelled at me over the clinic hallway. This is not a New York Attitude. this is just a non caring doctor.  I went to see her for pain,  but some how in the middle of treatment I broke my ankle. She treated me as if she never saw me before inspire of the fact she knew who I was. and than I keep seeing her for my hip issues but her clinical skills were as poor as her bedside manners. She blamed my pain on weak muscles without finding the underline cause - basically  - as if I'm lazy.  Treated me like a hypochondriac. Honestly -  I was just scared of her which is totally ridiculous. I spent so much money on exams and therapy and only now, two years and a half later, thanks to another doctor I found out I have Hip Bursitis.

I am an amateur sportsman who is not beautiful and does not have a beautiful body. I throw myself around and I used to have at least one injury a year. Dr. Bartoli is a healer. She helped me strengthen my muscles so I could do the things I enjoy. She maybe the best doctor I have ever had.
