Dr. James Joseph Otting, MD

Im a New patient of Dr Otting. 1rst appt he took the time to explain everything real well. Had my 1st epidural shot today and everything went great. Thanks Dr Otting. David Campbell and thank you Dr Greg Rhienhold for the referral

Was the best pain doctor in the Toledo area. Since he’s moved, he’s gotten a God complex. Gone are the days when he would joke around with you, and make sure that you are comfortable. Can’t get ahold of him anymore. He put me on a medication that saved my life, but now (even though I have a condition that has absolutely no cure and is killing me) I can’t even get out of my bed. Find somewhere else to go. I’m a legendary patient who is being treated like a fentanyl addict. Please take my advice

Well Dr Otting is a damn good Dr but his staff is mean and nusty everytime I had a appointment they made me drop everytime they treat me like I was there to get pills I am a 57 years old Black man I'm older then his staff my back and my stomach is fuck up I need the treatment from Dr Otting I need the Dr Because I have a sim core in my back it haven't worked for two years so I'm having side effects so please please Dr Otting take me back please

the doctor is fine, he's a very good doctor but his staff,three thumbs down! the monroe st office staff was polite, this staff on coy road is rude and unfriendly and unhelpful. the front desk lady, the black one, was mean and talked to four/five patients like dirt. unbelievable how they are a month behind getting patients meds too. horrible experience for my mom.

Dr Otting is a great doctor ??

Went to Dr. Otting at the Toledo Clinic, 5085 Monroe street, because of his great reviews. Wait time was very long for a very short visit and staff was unbelievably rude and unprofessional. They were blaming my insurance company for why my prior authorization was not getting approved and I believed them until the head PR rep from the insurance called me personally to tell me that the Doctor's wanted to approve my PR but his staff neglected to send over the documentation they requested so they had to deny it. My insurance called the office on a few occasions to have the documents sent over and they still slacked off at sending it. I ended up having to seek care repeatedly in the Emergency room because his staff refused to allow me to see Dr. Otting or even speak with a nurse when I was having severe neck pain. I have a debilitating condition that I could not get treated for the whole 4 months at his office because his staff were lazy at doing their job. Dr. Otting was aware of how crucial it was for a steroid injection due to my condition and pain and did not go out of the way to even put a rush on the order. I had to call off work several times, miss school and my children's important events, and my health and pain got worse while under his care. He may be a good Doctor who might give good care but that is impossible when his staff won't even schedule the patient with him and instead tells them to "take a hot shower" or go to the ER and neglects to do their job to get procedures approved. His staff even blamed him for not giving them updated notes to send to the insurance company. I was advised by the ER and other Doctor's to find a new office so I did.

After 7 years of being with DR. Otting i was dismissed from his Practus because he Supposedly smelled my register and license service dog and left me with 2 days of pain medications with my L4-L5 Vertebrae fracture, degenerative disk disease throughout my entire spine, a unstable lumbar, diabetic neuropathy from my knees down, and a heart patient 33-50% heart function. And would not call any thing in for me or my wife who he also dismissed for the same reason.i have been on the same medications from 2003 i never ask for a Increase at any time.

Great Doctor

Dr. Otting took the time to listen to me explain the type of pain I was in. The pain was effecting my ability to make it through a full week of work. After a lengthy discussion he made the suggestion that I try a injection in my S.I. joint to see if it would help decrease the inflammation. After 4 days I feel functional again. I would suggest Dr. Otting for anyone needing help for their chronic pain issues.

Dr. Otting and Dr. Victoria his nurse Practioner is they best doctors. Ive ever seen .

If you need a pain specialist Dr.James Otting is seriously the way to go. I have never had a doctor make me feel important. MOST DOCTORS MAKE PEOPLE FEEL THEY WANT YOUR MONEY NOT HIM. He really seems to care about his patients. He is always busy at his office but no what even if he gets behind he will not rush you. The medical assistants have been all really friendly too. If you want a doctor who will try to figure out the right treatment for you and actually take time and listen , see Dr.Otting. I seriously feel blessed to have him as a doctor especially with everything I am going through! He has always answered my questions with much knowledge. He is skilled in many procedures and his patient skills make you at ease.

Dr .Otting has been very helpful in helping me and with his help I do believe he'll get me back playing some golf. I can't say enough about him and his staff. I highly recommend him. Thank you Dr Otting and the medical staff at the Defiance Regional Hospital.

Great doctor!!
