Dr. Michelle Lee Sagan

Dr Michelle Sagan misdiagnosed my 15 year old daughter’s condition. After examining her, Dr Sagan gave us two options. She recommended physical therapy to see if it would alleviate her pain or option two was to have an MRI for further evaluation. Since my daughter was in excruciating pain; barely able to walk , we opted for the MRI. Dr. Sagan’s Nurse Practitioner informed us the MRI results indicated my daughter had a dehydrated and bulging disc. She gave us an order for physical therapy. After two months of weekly therapy my daughter’s pain was not subsiding. We sought a second opinion presenting the doctor with the same radiological notes and MRI images. This doctor immediately saw other things. He ordered x-rays and tests to determine my daughter had a fracture. She underwent months of therapy for a bulging disc when she should have been treated quite differently for the fracture. Dr Michelle Sagan misdiagnosed my 15 year old daughter’s condition.

I took my teenage daughter, who is actively involved in competitive volleyball, to see Dr. Michelle L. Sagan with a complaint of severe back pain. After examination, Dr. Sagan gave me two options: go to physical therapy first to see if that helps or have an MRI. Since my daughter was in so much pain and could barely walk, I chose to have the MRI. Dr. Sagan’s nurse practitioner called to inform me that the MRI showed a dehydrated and bulging disk. She gave us an order to see a physical therapist. When PT was not helping with the pain, I called Dr. Sagan‘s office several times to notify them. In response, Dr. Sagan referred us to pain management specialist. At this point, we sought a second opinion. After reviewing the original MRI, the new orthopedic doctor immediately identified additional issues shown on the MRI. He ordered additional X-rays and tests and found that she had a stress fracture. Due to Dr. Sagan’s misdiagnosis, my teen went unbraced for well over a month and had Physical Therapy that was counterproductive for a stress fracture.
