My sister and I accompanied my 95 year young mom to get an assessment and any ideas to keep her pain free from bone on bone osteoarthritis in her shoulders. She had been receiving cortisone shots every 3 months but it was wearing off in 2 months ending up with her in the ER twice. She was offered no solution other than opiates which she refused.
Dr Kola was so kind and listened to our concerns as well as gently checking mom’s shoulders. He was careful not to comment on previous doctor’s care but made 2 simple suggestions to help mom through her pain. 1 - get an MRI so he could see the details of her arthritis; and 2 - a way of rotating cortisone shots in her shoulders to keep ahead of the pain.
It was such comfort to know something could be done for mom without disrupting her routine.
We have chosen to work with Dr Kola from here on out.

I had a Spondolo that was not surgically correctable, I originally injured my back in Feb. 1997 as an "on the job" injury. I've lived with this hellish pain for 27 1/2 years! I have ingested more pain pills than I want to admit, they didn't help. I have seen many, many Doctors over the last many years, seeking relief, and the best any of them could offer was: "Conservative Therapy". Dr. Coal fixed my back completely and he did it in a single visit! No pain. I am trying to re-learn what its like to be normal! I don't hunch over, slouch or drag my foot. I'm FREE! Thank you Dr. Cole.

Dr. Kola is a very good doctor. I like when a doctor sits and talks with you he cares about his patients . I go about 3-4 days a month . Hes really gentle at giving me my injections without me flipping out cause I am scared of needles.

How refreshing to encounter a doctor who actually listened to me. He heard what I was saying, fully understood what I needed, and then resolved those issues for me! I'm really impressed. Needless to say, Dr. Kola is my new pain doctor.

Very Brilliant Doctor who specializes in Stem Cell Therapy for the Knee. Definitely took time for me (1 Hour) to explain everything. Sometimes a bit too techinal as I didn't really understand everything he was saying. I will decide after second opinion whether I want to go with his suggestion. Well versed in other specialities,too. Very Impressive Credentials in varying fields. I would recommend him to people with fairly serious knee issues. Doesn't want to operate if possible.

I have been a pain patient for 25 years. I've had about seven different pain doctors over that time frame. Dr.Kola is one of the best ones I have had. He actually sits, listens and engages in the conversation that's being had. He reads your medical records and communicate with you. The office staff is great. I have no complaints about them they do their best to help you and anything that you need help with. Which, an office staff that is just as good as the doctor is just as important as the doctor being good. I have seen him in both of Sarasota office and his Venice office. He's very gentle when he does injections. I highly recommend this practice
