“Didn't take the time to understand my experience and pain as his new patient. Very dismissive. The plan I had in place for medication and injections was finally working but was immediately changed within less than 5 minutes with Dr. Colarusso. Rushed through everything, prescribed meds I'm not comfortable taking, and questioned everything I discussed with Dr. Kothari. I love Mercer Bucks and Dr. Kothari. I traveled over an hour each way just to see Dr. Kothari. I know he is no longer there. However, I will not be returning as a patient, as I was extremely unhappy with Dr. Colarusso. I know other patients who didn't like their experience with him either, but I still gave it a chance. Again, I felt rushed, discouraged and felt as though he just wanted to bill my insurance for so many unnecessary things. So unfortunately, he is not a good fit for me. I would like to note that the nurses, front desk, and the office as a whole was always amazing! I will miss their kindness and attentiveness.”
