Florida Orthopaedic Institute

I want to share an honest review of my experience at FOI. Unfortunately, I do not recommend this practice, especially for upper-extremity nerve conditions. I saw Dr. Garcia in 2023 for cubital tunnel syndrome. After trying splinting and other conservative treatments without improvement, I elected to proceed with surgery in 2024. Immediately following surgery, my arm was more numb and significantly more painful than before. I also developed new difficulty with wrist extension, which I did not have prior to surgery. When I raised these concerns, I was told by a resident that my symptoms were…

I was referred to Dr samad by a professional in the field. When calling to schedule I was told he doesn’t see non workman’s comp patients at the Wesley chapel location so I agreed to drive out of my way to Tampa. Day of appointment I saw a nurse practitioner and when I asked if he were also going to see me she said no, he only sees patients who need surgery and isn’t here today.

I had came to this place because I…

We love our doctor, the problems we have had were with the Imaging department. One employee in particular who dropped the “f” bomb around my 6 year old when we walked by, who I believe was the same employee who was not nice to my other son when he had to have a cast. She was awful, made him cry and also told him to put weight on his fractured leg. We consistently had problems with that imaging side. No issues with imaging on the other side of the building, and no issues with DME at Wesley Chapel. This employee needs to be confronted and reprimanded for her horrible behavior and actions around…
