Thomas P. Zavitsanos, MD 10800 Knights Road, Philadelphia, PA 19114

"Kind, compassionate and knowledgeable."

"I have been seeing Dr. Zavitsanos for many years. He takes care of me every time I see him. He is the best and I can’t say enough good things about him. His staff is awesome too."

"This Dr crippled me. 3/6/07 saw him for a visit during the exam he pushed on my spine so hard he ruptured something had to get surgery on 3/19/07 due to him. I should’ve sued him so that he could never hurt anyone else like he did me"

"I was a previous patient of Dr Zavatsanos. I was cared for correctly. I've have 4 right hip surgeries and one just pop in hip on right hip. So I thought dr lee at Penn could fix left hip. A lot of arthritis covered the bone on bone on right hip an Assistant Professor Dr Varma. The surgery occured 3 wks ago . The just sent email TRAMODOL IT DOES NOT WORK. The physical rehab hurt me more. Sent me home with wrong prescriptions from 3 sources,;, pain mgmt, my therapist/dr Jacobs from New Life that I went when I found my eldest had terminal cançer . I've been with the at least 7 yrs. They corrected my meds, I have to see family dr because I had 2 scripts for blood pressure. No allergy sinus spray. . Said I was admitted for bronkitis when I was transferred via ambulance from Penn pres(univ of penn) with staples. I trust you and do want to be able walk with a cane to my twins highschool grad. I hurt so bad. It's hard to function out in the world. Thank you for considering me come back. I wean fine. I miss someone who cares and I'm just not a number. Need to be seen asap thank u again."

"Love this Dr. Excellent bedside manner. Explains everything to you. Very reassuring. His staff is Excellent, Friendly & Very Caring. Clean Facilities. Caters to Cowards like myself who is afraid of everything (bumps, falls and punctures) due to having CRPS along with several herniated discs, pinched nerves & a spinal cyst. However; I did get kicked out of his care due to a "False Positive" Drug Test, which I later found out could have come from several OTC Drugs (NSAIDS & Prilosec). I also use hair care products containing CBD Oil; which is used to grow textured hair. All Pain Management Drs. should have a copy of this list in order to properly assess their Real Problematic Patients. I Still Highly Recommend this Dr. because to me "He is the Best" However; I did learn that I cannot tolerate marijuana for Pain Management. Doesn't work for me. Increases my Pain Levels until I fall asleep also hurts my lungs even at the lowest level of THC. Still looking for a New Dr. since OTC Meds are killing my stomach with little effectiveness. Google What can cause False Positive urine tests results before going & stay off of those meds if possible for a few days before your appt. Good Rx will let you know for how long before your test to get clear results."
