      I thought I had finally found a place that could take care of my daily debilitating headaches, I even put up with the 3 plus hour wait times and a drug interaction that landed me in an ambulance and the emergency room with a near life-threatening reaction! They did not contact me for a follow-up and swiped it under the rug when I told them at my next visit. I did however continue to visit their office because they managed to get my headaches under control. I am not on narcotics but do however have maintenance drugs that I have to take (monthly injection of Amovig). Walgreens informed me that I was out of refills and Florida Spine refused refill. I called and spoke with a VERY RUDE and uncaring nurse called Donna who proceeded to yell at me, telling me she will not call in even one dose because I haven't been seen since September and I have to be seen every 90 days. I have an appointment 1/24 (the soonest I could get in) and she continued to scold me saying "I told you no! I will not call it in!" I am now 20 days past my monthly injection and in severe pain! This place really needs to be investigated for immoral and uncaring practices.

      Business Response /* (1000, 8, 2022/02/10) */ We are not able to discuss spectific patient concerns due to HIPAA privacy laws, but will provide a private attachment responce. In general, we apologize for extended wait times, and have recently opened our new office across the street which has drastically reduced wait times. Also, in general terms, due to our licencing with the state, prescriptions can only be renewed when a patient is seen. We always reccommend patients schedule return appointment for a day or two prior to their prescription refill due date.
