I recently visited Dr Mehta and he thoroughly and thoughtfully discussed my pain issues. He answered all of my questions and assuaged my fears about what was to come. I only recently did undergo a procedure and so far I am pain free. I will continue to see him and highly recommend him for pain management.

I find Dr. Mehta both upbeat and candid when discussing the situation with my spine and lower back. He takes time to listen to my questions, then answers with a variety of helpful solutions and suggestions for moving forward. He and his PA’s have a friendly, efficient and professional office demeanor. As a patient, I feel encouraged to continue as an active participant in my own healing team.. This is very motivating moving forward.

Signing in was uncomfortable because the large entry room’s lone TV is blaring directly above the registration clerk’s window, giving her the appearance of a sleepy, disinterested mime, silently mouthing mysterious instructions. The rest of the experience was excellent. Dr. Shaan Mehta and his assistants are the best ever!

Dr Mehta listened to what I had to say and answered my questions. This was a followup appt. I was more appreciative of his manner and concern of my medical issue than during my initial appt with him. He was more attentive and in return I was more at ease. I will definitely go back to see him if the need arises.

Dr. Metha and his team listened and did not put me through any other pain than what I had when I went to see him. I'm dealing with a rotator cuff issue and He listened and took care not to create any unnecessary pain by making me move my arm to the point that it hurts. I went to the Brandon office which was clean and very prompt on my scheduled time to be there. They even made the phone calls to schedule my MRI and scheduled my first surgeon consultation. I highly recommend Dr Metha and his team. I wish all my doctor appointments were pleasant and to the point like this one was. Thank you Dr Mehta and your team.

Dr. Metha. Is how I think all Dr's should be like. I went there in pain for a rotator cuff issue. He listened to what I had to say and he did not put me through any unnecessary movements that would create any more pain than I already have. I was seen at the Brandon office which was clean prompt and every one there on his team was quick and pleasant. They made all my future appointments for me. I didn't have to call anyone to set up my MRI or 1st surgeon consultation. They did it all. I highly recommend Dr. Metha and his team. Thank you.

Dr. Mehta was quite professional in his approach towards diagnosis and his treatment plan is pragmatic. I went in with doomsday scenario of being sold with invasive procedures, but I was so happy that his approach was therapeutic and alternative treatments first. Dr. Mehta has my confidence and I will follow his plan diligently. Doctors office and waiting area was spacious, airy and bright with plenty of daylight.

Dr. Mehta is an excellent physician. He takes the time to explain what the diagnosis is and gives hand written diagrams of the area that is being treated. Most importantly he listens to his patient and shows compassion. All of these qualities make for a 5 star rating.

I have only wonderful things to say about Dr. Mehta and Florida Orthopedic Institute. As someone with back issues from an accident I have been going to FOI for a few years. Everyone you deal with from appointments to the physicians are phenomenal, pleasant, accommodating and concerned. You are treated as if you were a family member. They listen to your issues and concerns and address them consistently. In my opinion Dr.’s Samad, LaPierre Mehta and Jackson and their staff are the gold standard of what health care is meant to be. You will be so impressed with your care when using these Doctors and their support teams.

I've been seeing Dr. Mehta and his staff for over 6 months with multiple appt's including diagnosis, follow-up, and post procedural follow ups. I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Dr. Mehta and how he has treated me and my condition. He has taken the time to answer all of my questions, make recommendations and carefully listen to my concerns. I would recommend him to anyone looking for his care.When he has seen me meeting with another Dr. in the clinic he has stopped me and asked how I am doing and how my recovery is coming along. I moved a few hours away from the Tampa area and will return to continue follow up appointment with him because of the experiences I have had with him and his office. I cannot recommend him enough.

I was impressed with Dr. Mehta after my second visit. He took the time to explain to me & my husband in detail my MRI results.

I also had a procedure preformed by Dr. Mehta and was reassured by his bedside manner & concern.
