Your trust is our top concern.
We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.
We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.
Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.
All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.
Not sure how this doctor is I didnt really see him but for 1 min to write on my back on what part of the body my injection was for. Not giving bad review on him for every bed was full and I felt like part of an assembly line. No one called to say I was getting 1 injection when I was suppose to get 2. They had to give 3 tries with my iv and it was freezing in the office. Doctor seemed nice it feels as if he did get it right so I am happy for that. Also did not know what my fee was until I arri

I'm absolutely upset by the manner in which my treatment was administered. I requested to have local anaestisia for my back treatment. I was told that was possible, however when I was wheel into the surgical theater, the Dr. along with with his staff proceeded to administer the shots without the local anaesthesia. Even if it is a State law in Georgia that only general anesthesia is required for such treatment, patient should be clearly inform that local anaesthesia will not be applied.

Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Clavo?
I feel that this is a very nice facility but i had the hardest time with my sessions. Every week it was something either my visits were being cancel because of the workers not coming to work or I was not able to receive the treatments that would actually assist in my healing. when I stopped my visits and found another place, they requested my information and it was never sent. I found it a waste of time, gas, and money and I will never return for any service.

I came to this man 15 years ago after spending the previous 7 under the care of other doctors. I was a virtual prisoner in my home unable to walk, in pain that never went away or eased, living a life I would wish on no one. Dr. Clavo changed all that...and my life. Through a series of medical procedures, (done in the office), and adjustments in my medication I began to get my life back. He's a man of outstanding character, a caring and compassionate man and a wonderful doctor with a great staff.
