Prostko E. Richard's Online Review Report Card

I accompanied my spouse to a visit at the recommendation of her pain management doctor. Dr. Prostko was arrogant, dismissive and went so far as to speak in a mocking tone regarding the number of symptoms she described to his PA. Had a totally opposite opinion of her other doctors, and was also dismissive towards their opinions. It might be time for Dr. Prostko to think about retiring or doing some communications coursework.

I could barely walk when I first went went to see Dr. Prostko , after surgery I feel amazing.

Thankful for Dr Protsko fine work of surgery on my back I have enjoyed nine years of Painfree activity. To have my 87 birthday and look forward to more painfree years of independent living having fun making contributions to help others.

I’ve seen him for years then we moved I miss him!

I was admitted to Washington hospital due to complications believed to be caused by a Tarlov Cyst . This doctor and his team looked me right in the eye and told me I was born with this cyst and that it had no relation the problems I was having . They sent me on my way a very sick person . Upon more research and speaking with doctors that really took the time to look into my situation we find out the cyst Is caused by trauma and that all my symptoms were the result of this cyst . Washington Hospital discharged me with no recommendations or referrals . I would not recommend this team to anyone. Their compassion is non existent and your are truly just a number in their eyes .

Dr. Prosko just did my cervical disectomy and fusion on c4-c6 and I couldn't be happier. The surgeon who was supposed to do my surgery had an emergency and Dr. Prostko picked up my case at the last moment for him. He kept me and my family well informed on all aspects of the surgery and recovery. He has a terrific bedside manner which reduced a lot of the pre-surgery nervousness. A very kind and knowledgeable man. Highly recommend!

I have a cervical spine condition that is rare and serious. I went to several neurologists for their opinions and we chose Dr. P. for surgery. He is a gifted and brilliant surgeon and we will be forever grateful. He is totally 5 star. My husband had a lower back pain issue and he diagnosed it and repaired the problem and my husband has had zero pain since. He always has a twinkle in his eye. I hope the upcoming group of surgeons he has trained listened and learned.

There was some error after the surgery and I continue to experience pain years afterward, but my concerns were not heard.

Dr. prostko has performer surgery on me in the past and there were no complications. Any time a follow up visit is requested it is usually within a weeek. I am facing further surgery and will ask his advice because I have faith in him.
