Dr. Vengurlekar has been wonderful, as well as his caring staff! I've seen him many times for pain in my lower back and after a series of injections, pain is relieved. He also has done knee injections to relieve intense pain. I can now do my walks and travel comfortably again. It has been a blessing to receive care from Dr. V! I recommend him highly!

I am in the healthcare industry and work with a lot of different pain doctors. When my partner hurt his back and couldn't get out of pain - Dr. V was the only person I would even consider taking him to. Sure enough - with a selective nerve injection - a 15 minute, non-invasive procedure (non-invasive procedure = no cuts in the skin at all - not to be confused with minimally invasive) he was able to walk out of the office, where he couldn't even get out of bed to use the restroom without tears (and he is a very tough man). Anyway, I wish more people knew he existed bc his training in trauma, cardiothoracic surgery, and anesthesiology are VERY unique. I've never seen anyone with a torn up L4, L5, and S1 recover that quickly. Against the doctors wishes, he was back in the gym a week later - that's how unbelievable this doctor is. So if you didn't know - there are options that don't involve surgery out there that actually work.
Also- to comment on the other rating I saw on here with one star - pain clinics get a lot of drug seekers - and if you can't trust an anesthesiologist to identify one - I don't know who can. Plus i don't know who other than a disgruntled employee would write a review like that - I feel sad for anyone that wouldn't go to him. He is literally the best-kept secret for anyone in back or any joint pain and I hope anyone with pain tries seeing him before jumping into surgery!

This doctor is a horrible human being. He absolutely has NO bed side manner. His staff even talks about him behind his back. He is a thief. He charges outrages prices for procedures. Even office visits. If you dare question him about a treatment plan, he gets defensive and will start talking down to you and kick you out. If you even hint at medication he calls you a drug addict or drug seeker. Also, I've seen so many illegal practices in this office. I am reporting him to the medical board. Please save yourself and see a different pain doctor. PLEASE BEWARE!
