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.

My experience with Dr. Dumitrescu has been very positive. He treated a back issue which helped to lessen pain in my left foot - which has been with me for six year. He explains things very well and lays out all your options and he never pushes. I would recommend him to others. He also has a very nice staff.

Dr. Dumitrescu provided the worst experience I have ever had with an MD . I went to him with a Stenosis problem and he provided a steroid shot, which was a follow-up to a shot I received 6 months ago from a physician in another city. The results were completely the opposite. The first shot was provided seamlessly, with no pain from the shot and an immediate reduction in pain, which lasted 6 months. Dr. Dumitrescu's missed the proper location, hit a nerve that caused pain down my leg and after 2 weeks, the pain was worse. Early pain, no relief and a new pain in my knee, which I never experienced previously. Dr. Dumitresc reacted as if it was my fault and had no solution to my problem. He was egotistical and insensitive to my situation. Go to him at your own risk. If I could rate him at -5, I would.

Dr. "D" is a one-of-a-kind! He is compassionate and understanding. Always takes the time to listen carefully to what is ailing me and always comes up with a great treatment. Ditto with his staff. They are friendly, courteous, kind and professional. I have the utmost trust in Dr. D and am so glad I found him!

Best pain management doctor in town. He was the ONLY person (and this includes orthopedists) who was able to explain to me why my bulging disk in my back was making my left ankle hurt. When that pain recurs, I know it’s time to go see Dr. Dumitrescu. He took care of both lower back problems that had been a recurring problem, as well as some cervical spine issues that occurred due to a car accident. I don’t have to take oral medication (an ibuprofen once in a great while, but nothing stronger) to treat my back problems. He has the ability to listen to a patient without interrupting - a skill more doctors should learn - and he wants to get to the root of the problem. He offers multiple alternatives for treatment, and we worked together to get rid of my back pain. He and his staff were also helpful in treatment of migraine headaches (which, if you’ve never had one, are extremely bothersome and can cause a plethora of unexpected painful events with a cascade of symptoms).

I have had several interactions with Dr. Dumitrescu and his staff and have had nothing but great experiences. Dr. D is very knowledgeable and genuinely wants to help his patients achieve their goals. I feel very supported there and I also don't feel like he tries to get me to do unnecessary tests. His ethical standards are high and he is available when I need him. I highly recommend his services for both pain management and funtional medicine.

I have been a patient of Dr Dumitrescu for many years. I have seen his practice evolve from pain management to include regenerative medicine which I believe go hand in hand. I moved from the Austin area 6 years ago and still make the drive in to see Dr D. He is very easy to talk to and gives you various options for treatment. The staff is always very friendly & professional. I would highly recommend Dr Dumitrescu!

Dr. Dumitrescu is excellent. I was referred to Dr. D by a co-worker who held him in extremely high regard, and my visits and treatment with him thus far has not disappointed at all. His caring, patient and expert manner of treating and informing his patient is unparalleled compared to my experience with any other physicians. I would recommend him wholeheartedly to anyone experiencing back/neck pain or related issues.
