Shawn Donatelli's Online Review Report Card

Never saw him personally after initial visit except for injections. Always saw an assistant who never listened to my current complaints. Assistant Paula would walk in with script already written without listening or caring how I was really feeling. All cookie cutter treatment. No individualized treatment plans according to diagnosis and/or lack of relief with injections and prescribed medication.

Rude, ignorant, doesn’t see you after first visit .Paula does and is just as rude and uncaring. Southwoods in general is a great facility…if they want to remain one, they should cut ties with this doctor. Not even worth explaining my full list of how terrible my experience as his patient was…he doesn’t deserve the time. I’m sure he’ll remain and keep performing cookie cutter treatments instead of individualized plans.Rated staff as 1 because of Paula…front desk staff was always helpful and friendly.

Worst place. Nasty help they are not doctors just nasty stayaway!!!!!!

This Doctor stopped seeing me and moved to another practice at Southwoods Pain clinic and now all the doctors there will not see me either. There was no explanation as to why he did such a thing.

Excellent Physician! Very knowledgeable & kind. Has treated me on several occasions and I wouldn't go to anyone else.

Horrible Doctor never comes in the room, seen him twice the past 9 years. The staff is horrible too. **STAY AWAY**

Sad that Southwoods has him there..Pure rudeness and ignorance out of his mouth..Writes a lot tho if what you want..

I was a week before having pain pump surgery and cause i yell at the receptionist over the phone about the prescription being wrong Cause she was listening to what i was saying he kick me out if the pain clinic and cancelled my surgery.

I fully agree with all the negative reviews I have read. I worked in the medical field for 42 years and have seen and worked with Doctors in many fields and I've never meet such an arrogant self centered with no bedside manor to speak of. On my visit for a caudal injection he gave me a tongue lashing in front of a nurse and a x-ray tech because I gave a bad review on the communication in his office. That was entirely non professional act. My initial visit was with a nurse practionor who had to run for permission to do anything. I hadn't seen the doctor for 3 years and he never ordered any exams to see if my condition had changed in anyway to see if the injections were warranted for my current problem. I will explore another avenue for relief and I implore others to avoid this mans methods. Word of mouth ( and the internet) is great advertisement so Southwoods you should check this guy out for the future if you continue to use "How a patient should be treated" in your adds.

If I could rate negative stars I would. All he does is make appt after appt just to tell you he can’t do anything for your pain. I’ve been dealing with excruciating pain and gradually getting worse. Told I was too young to be prescribed medication regardless of the fact I was in a car accident. I would not recommend this dr if you’re really trying to get any type of help. His practitioners are just as bad as he is. They don’t listen to the patients concerns. Almost like they have a script they go by regardless of what the patient says or is actually going through,they already have the answer. DO NOT GO THERE IF YOU REALLY NEED HELP!
