BioSpine Institute - Brooksville

"I had a consultation at BioSpine with Todd Williams because I wanted a minimally invasive procedure for back pain. They took an X-ray of my back and hip and said my hip was worse than the back. Todd Williams examined both hips by spreading them. When he spread the left one I think I heard a crack and yelled out in pain. He said that just proves that I need hip surgery first and gave me a referral to see an orthopedic surgeon. He said that my insurance company would probably mandate that I go to physical therapy first approving surgery. I went to an orthopedic surgeon whom I had previously seen who said I don’t need surgery yet. I contacted BioSpine at least six times over several months asking for an appointment for the procedure. I was told I needed the orthopedic surgeon records and they were sent to them. I called several times and did not receive a response. I emailed through their website and they contacted the office and gave me the name of the person who was supposed to get back to me. I also complained about a disk of the X-ray that I paid $10 for that didn’t work. The orthopedic surgeon’s office told me that I was the second patient that day who had an X-ray from BioSpine that didn’t work. I did speak to someone twice but an appointment was never made. One person that I spoke to told me that I didn’t show up to an appointment with the orthopedic surgeon. I told her that was not true - I never made an appointment with their orthopedic surgeon. I now believe they wanted me to see an orthopedic surgeon in their office. It’s now obvious to me that they didn’t want my business but wanted my $10."

"Don't ever go here. I saw Dr Ronzo for two visits. He took my insurance Blue Cross blue shield. For the two visits. I need surgery ony back. He told me my insurance company does not pay him enough to do the surgery. So he told me I had to see another doctor for that at Tampa general hospital. Dr Ronzo give me a order for a MRI and sent me on my way. I am in extreme pain. Dr Ronzo did not put stat on myri orders. By doing this my insurance company has 72 hrs to get approval. My insurance company called him to try and get him to expedite the orders. Dr Ronzo would not do it. UNREAL unrealUNREAL"

"I had a very good initial visit with BioSpine. Everyone was very pleasant and professional. Explanations of my condition and recommendations for treatment were thorough and encouraging. Thank you."

"I recently had a procedure done at Bio spine. The surgeon Dr Ronzo was excellent the staff was just as professional and accommodating. If your in back pain give them a call as you are suffering needlessly ."

"Dr. Bono promised to fix the pain in my husband’s back and buttocks. He also stated that it would not affect my husband’s flexibility. After surgery 2/9/22, the recovery was difficult and debilitating. Today his pain has increased rather than abated. Further more, he can no longer put on his own socks due to loss of flexibility. To add insult to injury, we are still receiving bills that indicate our secondary insurance has not paid their share of the bill. Last summer I contacted Blue Cross. They in turn contacted BioSpine. The bill had been paid, but improperly posted. Yet today we received another bill. Apparently their billing department is as efficient as their surgery!"
