"Dr Ameglio has done both of my hips in the past two years and has preformed a SI joint fusion for sciatica within the past 6 months. When I had my last hip done about a year ago I was continuing to have pain in the hip area. Dr. Ameglio diagnosed sciatica and did the SI fusion for me six months ago. What is interesting is a lot of patients present with hip pain after a hip replacement and it is sciatica rather than any problem with the new hip. He diagnosed me and did a fusion of my SI joint. I'm a 71 year old recently retired nurse. I've always been super active and now I can return to my rollerblading and aggressive activities that I have done in the past. Thank you Doctor Ameglio and staff for taking such good care of me and getting me back to my normal healthy lifestyle."
"I posted a year ago and this is my update: I saw Dr. Ameglio for an SI joint fusion last year on the right side. I am a former patient of his who also had a successful surgery for an ankle tendon repair years ago.
I was absolutely petrified to have an SI joint fusion surgery done. I was fearful of everything that could go "wrong". I asked a million questions. Dr. Ameglio was very compassionate and patient with me at every appointment- always taking time to address all of my concerns and questions. He was confident that this surgery would resolve my long-standing issues and pain on that side, but did note that I may require a bilateral SI fusion. I put my faith in him and his expertise.
His quiet and calming demeaner was the exact approach I needed to help alleviate my fears. On the day of my first surgery, I was a wreck! I was hysterically crying in pre-op holding. He came to my side and sat with me and helped to put me at ease. He is so humble and kind, yet a knowledgeable surgeon. My surgical outcomes far exceeded my expectations and I could not be more thrilled!
Fast forward a year- my right side is rock solid, without pain. However, my left side continued to be problematic. Having had such a successful experience on the right side, I really wanted my left to be as "solid". There were still things that I was unable to do (on my own). I am in my mid-50's, but my body was acting like someone in their 90's.
At this point, I had moved out of Florida and tried to find a doctor close to where I live. I was traveling over 2 hours to surgeons who claim to do SI joint surgery, yet made statements that did not inspire confidence, treated me like a number, or where just derogatory- rolling their eyes at my situation.
I decided to get on a plane and fly to see Dr. Ameglio. I am currently recovering from my left side SI joint fusion and am recovering even better that last time. I am already able to do things I have not been able to do in over a decade.
Dr. Ameglio is not a typical surgeon that treats you like a number. He gives you undivided attention with respect and courtesy for you as an individual person. I feel confident recommending him for anyone needing an orthopedic surgeon- I say this as a patient and a clinician, being in healthcare myself for over 30 years. I am so grateful for his competent, kind, and compassionate care. He is truly gifted."
