Reviews of Pachelli Anthony F MD (Doctor)

Nadine Estrada

I went in today for knee pain that I've had for around 4 months but has gradually gotten worse. I can't take the pain! I was seen by Dr. Pachelli, he took one look at me as he walked in and right then decided not to help me and just judge my weight! He said I needed to lose weight and that is why my knee hurts!! That is a separate issue and if he had taken more than 2 minutes to examine me and ask a few questions, he'd know that I do exercise regularly and have a health issue that causes me not to lose weight! They took xrays which, hello only shows bones!! I didn't go in for broken bones!!! I need a MRI which would show possible tears in ligaments. This was the worst experience I've had with any doctor! Absolutely disgusted!! The man didn't even shake my hand, he gave me a fist bump! Who the hell does that!! So unprofessional!! Wish I could give less than 1 star!!!

It's been over five years since Anthony Pachelli offered & performed a medial meniscus clean up on my left knee. As I lay there waiting to be put under my heart rate rose to 160/130-not sure exactly, but it was really high. They gave me meds put me to sleep. I knew in my heart that the surgery was not going to be a good one. Dr. Pachelli cut so much of my padding out of the knee joint that my post op included a visit to his office mate who does knee replacements; He had left me w/less than 20% of my meniscus & I was told right away that I needed a partial replacement. I now have a collapsed opposite foot, after having to bare all of my weight to the opposite side of my body and my knee is in a lot of pain, being bone on bone, and cartilage crumbled. Just because Pachelli says surgery is the way to go, you don't have to buy into his business.
