Dr. Steven Calvino

Horrible, horrible doctor. He led the pain management team while I had surgery @ nyu & he didn't do anything to help my pain. He comes into the room & as I try to explain to him tht I'm in pain, he cuts me off, acts strange, puts his hands in the air & says "I'm not doing this" instead of addressing me & he walks out of the room. Complete disregard for the patient. He's there to manage my acute pain from open gallbladder surgery but he seems completely overwhelmed by providing basic pain management services. A normal pain doc wld be expected to come into a patients room, ask the patient how they're feeling, discuss the current meds their on, how many times the patient has pressed their pca throughout the night, and discuss a plan of action to increase the pca/pain meds or change it up so the patient can rest & be comfortable & not in such extreme pain. But he failed to provide the basic acute pain management while I was at nyu & recovering from open gallbladder surgery. HORRIBLE!!!
