Suneetha Budampati

The staff here along side Dr B are truly amazing! I had the privilege of being treated by Dr B, Tiffany, and their team for 4yrs and my conditions improved SIGNIFICANTLY under their care. I used to spend a great amount of time in the E.Rs, Dr B's innovative solutions will be greatly missed now that I've moved out of state :/

Dr Budampati performed a Kyphoplasty on my spine a week ago. She is a wonderful doctor- personable, competent, and caring. She listened to my concerns and answered all of my questions. I also can’t say enough about her staff - wonderful!

This is the worst place in the world. Dr. Budampati doesn’t have a clue about what she is doing. I went there to be treated for lower back on my right side. I have experienced this condition years prior for which I received a set of three injections in Maryland had great great success. Dr. Budampati gave me the first injection without exactly knowing where and what was actually causing my pain and with out first having me undergone MRI exam. The first injection did nothing to relieve my pain it actually caused more pain. I was back in her office less than 2 weeks for my second injection without having undergone a MRI exam. The 2 injection did nothing to relieve to pain it actually caused more severe pain and stiffness. It confirmed for then that she had no clue about what she was doing. It was then she realized that she should see what was really happening so she ordered a MRI exam which is what she should have done before ever treating me. The MRI revealed what I basically already knew. I return to her office with the MRI results and to receive my 3rd and last injection about 10 days after the 2nd injection thinking since she has the MRI results maybe she’ll get it right and I can finally get some relief. After receiving the 3rd injection I am much worst than I was before my first treatment. I have several sciatic pain in my lower left buttocks, hip and lower leg. I can not stand or walk because of the pressure from body weight. I am unable to comfortable lying down on my back or stomach. I can not sleep. Every attempted twist and turn causes severe pain. I have complete mobility without experiencing severe pain. I am 10 x worst than I was prior to being treated by Dr. Budampati. This is the worst place in the world.

I have been coming to Spine & Pain Center for many years, and I am completely satisfied with the treatments I have received. Dr. Budampati is extremely knowledgeable about giving the epidurals she has given me, and is very sensitive when it comes to the amount of pain I am able to withstand during the procedure. All in all, I would recommend Spine & Pain Center for anyone that is dealing with extreme pain involving the spine.

Dr. Budampati, is a very knowledgeable and professional provider. I have had back and leg pain for some time and Dr. B developed a plan tailored for me that so far has worked out well. My pain levels overall have been reduced and I have my life back. I still can't play tennis, but now I can at least walk from my car to the court. I recommend her with enthusiasm.

I saw Dr. Budampati for a number of years. She does not have any bedside manner to be clear. Professional I suppose. But my treatment was largely to just inject me with steroids which made me gain weight and then tell me I needed to lose more weight. I think it was clear from my visits she didn’t like me which was problematic. Anyone outside the norm for her is an issue. I moved away and went to a different specialist and pain management doctor and they started me a new treatment plan that addresses my issues without steroid injections and I’ve lost a great amount of weight and am much healthier than I was under her treatment. I feel like I was just a pin cushion there.

My spouse has been going here since we moved here a few months ago [job relocation has us moving every few years]. We provided the office will all medical records, including x-rays and reports from spinal surgery done last year. This office is the most frustrating and ridiculous office either of us have every dealt with. They changed his medication and require him to come in every week to get another prescription. They do not care about his health or conditions - they do, however, care very much about billing us and our insurance, every week. The newest medicine they put him on, besides being ineffective, is hundreds of dollars and that's w/ insurance. We called and asked them to put it through our prescription mail plan, which reduced the cost to less than $100 for a 90-day supply. Surprise surprise - they won't because they will not give him a 90-day supply because then he doesn't have to be seen every week. FYI his spinal surgery was done by one of the top spinal surgeons in the country. This place is a cruel joke - unless you have money to waste and no actual needs, avoid going here.

Very childish attitude towards your particular pain issues. Does not listen to your questions and provides answers without consideration and factual reality. I believe she responds in a way that keeps you paying for treatments that are no longer beneficial to patients. She told me that a specific treatment could possibly provide pain relief for up to six months and that I could receive additional treatments if the pain came back sooner. I went back after 4 months because of excruciating pain and was told I had to wait until the 6-month period had been reached. I was offered an assessment and could possibly be “squeezed in” that day even though I had made this appointment weeks in advance. I told her runner (she never came in to speak with me) that I know I’m in pain and I don’t need an assessment to be told I have pain. This had already been done several times and I was only there to receive the shots she originally said I could receive. I left my “appointment “ in pain with no relief in sight. I had also taken a filled out form for a DMV handicap placard which only required a check mark and signature. I was told by her runner that “she didn’t have time to complete today “ even though I had an appointment. Again, I never saw Dr Budampati. Three days later I received a letter from her stating she was releasing me as a patient and she could no longer treat me due mistrust. What! Quite the opposite from my perspective. I look back at this relationship with feeling tricked and deceived, many dollars and months later. She didn’t even have the courage or decency to lie to my face. I am just another military veteran, taken advantage of by a doctor who doesn’t have the time to help. I am truly saddened and disappointed in her.

I've been working with Dr budinpadi for 9 years approximately. She is fantastic she helps to control my pain. She understands my pain and she is caring, and empathetic I'm very knowledgeable. With her help I have been able to avoid further spine surgery I can't say enough good about her.

By the time I saw her I was in a great deal of pain, and concerned that she would recommend pain killers rather than trying to determine the cause. I was so wrong. She spent a long time with me, finding out what more about my activity levels, lifestyle, goals, and pain levels. For the fist time in I don't know how long I felt like I had a doctor who HEARD me. She mapped out a strategy, not one based on massive amounts of drugs, but thoughtful diagnostic processes. Highly recommend

Dr. Budampati and PA. Tiffany Dietz are the absolute best tag team in town when dealing with spinal pain and/or injury. Dr. B has cared for me since my spinal surgery in August of 2011. I see her about every 2 to 3 years and she and her team have been wonderful at keeping my pain at bay. Recently I experienced some neck and shoulder pain and the team worked very hard to re-mediate what ended up being a surgical fusion. No one has ever worked this hard to help me avoid a surgery. Great Staff!

Thank God I found Dr.Budampati she is very professional and she help me a lot to feel better with my condition and control my pain. She took her time with me and listening me . God bless her. Tks for all your help

Everyone at this office was efficient, friendly, and professional. They did a great job of diagnosing, explaining, and treating my back pain.

Dr. Suneeth Budampati is very caring and patient as she assesses my reasons for pain. I am very comfortable with her and have confidence that she can help me. I also suggest strongly if you go to the National Spine and Pain Center in Shirlington, Virginia that you ask if PA Ms. Tiffany K. Dietz is available before you see Dr. Budampati. Ms. Dietz took all my initial information and gave me some terrific counsel. I recommend them highly .

Dr. B was fabulous with my long term issues. I am not pleased with the Arlington office off 395. I've been on same medications and random screenings for 9+ years with absolutely no issues. 1st one here and they screw it up. I'll be transferring back to Walker Lane for next month's PostOp. I hate to drop Dr. B - she is a caring compassionate physician however my integrity as a person & minister is too important to have inhouse Labs mishandled. Primary's tests & PreOp Tox. perfect 3 days later.

Great place to go if you want pills and shots done by her Physician Assistants. Barely spoke to me in three visits, and when she did she did not listen to my concerns nor did she ever even point at my spine to determine where my pain was. I had an MRI of my neck for an injury that I had, yet the pain was in my back and she told me it would go away on it’s own which it did not. She told me I could go back to everyday life while I had three limbs that were numb from a pinched nerve. BAD!

Love Dr. B! Saved me from pain and suffering countless times.

Beware of online reviews. if you are looking for a competent and compassionate doctor, she is the right one. She also expects a lot of responsibilityandownership from her patients in their treatment planand recovery process. I like that kind of treatment, it works for me. if you are looking to just get whatyou want, or pain pills for the rest of your life, that is not her style.

She was very mean to me. My mother had accompanied me on this visit because I was in so much pain that I couldn't drive myself. Dr. Budampati yelled at me like I was a child and treated me very disrespectfully because I asked her questions about the plan of treatment that made me nervous. Clearly her bedside manners are repulsive and I will never return.

Doctor Budampati is the consummate doctor; she always puts me at ease, always has a smile, and always has a positive attitude. I have complete trust in her proficiency each time she has to give me an epidural.

Love Dr. B! When backpain strike, I just want a competent practicioner who can provide immediate (and I mean immediate) relief. For me, that's Dr.B. Her front office staff have always been compassionate to get me in same day and get the care that I need. Thank you for all you do for us backapain sufferers!

Dr. B and her PA staff are awesome. The receptionists and front office however need lessons in not rushing the patient and being so curt and abrupt. Dr. B has a gifted set of hands and is extremely good at her job. Scheduling is tough but that's because she's in high demand, so make appointment well in advance.

If you are already on pain meds get ready to be treated like a drug addict. You have to bring in your pill bottle so they can count how many pills you have. They interrogated me about pain meds I got from other doctors when I fell. They make you do urine tests even if there is no reason to expect abuse. The doctor wouldn't even see my brother. who also has multiple chronic pain issues, because of the meds he is on. In my opinion she has a God complex. She knows she can give and take away.
