Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Rodriguez?
Dr. Rodriguez prescribed copious amounts of opioid and addictive medications for years. I was taking 40 mg of oxycodone a day +6 tramadol and muscle relaxers. I was “forced” to have procedures done in order to get my medication. For example, if I didn’t get spinal injections every 6 to 9 months he would not continue prescribing. Even when I wasn’t to prescribe. She never suggested lowering my dosage of medications. But that’s not the point. The point is he over prescribes and quite honestly I think he is a gateway to addiction.

Been having pain for awhile and he’s the first doctor to actually diagnose what’s wrong. Great doctor.

Have seen him for2 1/2 yrs. He & staff are fantastic. He’s anything BUT a pill pusher...interested in getting to root cause of pain & looks at WHOLE picture (lab work, imaging, hormones, lifestyle etc). Helped me lose 40 lbs...made BIG impact on pain & is proactive in balancing hormones, vitamins & supplements for overall wellness (hence listed as Pain & Wellness Dr) As a R.N myself, I’m very impressed as opposed to “pill pushers” I’ve seen before as a pt. & nurse. Great Dr! Spends time WITH you

I feel the Dr. Was not truthful in the information he gave me. He did procedures that were not needed or Did anything to help the pain . When in dire need of help I was told that’s normal.

I have been to several pain specialists and suffer with chronic pain mainly from gout and back injury. Dr. Rodriguez has by far been successful in every area to manage my pain so I can have a quality life and be able to work pain free. I highly recommend him and the people who have wrote bad reviews about him have a problem of their own like always.

I've been seeing Dr. Rodriguez for a few months. It all started from nerve damage after a hip replacement and dislocation of the new prosthetic. Dr. Rodriguez was thorough in his original assessment. He always addressed my questions. My husband once joined me late for an appointment and Dr. Rodriguez turned and greeted him as well as went over information he just covered with me. I am 31 and had a spinal cord stimulator surgery a week ago since the trial showed great results.

Horrible doctor and office staff. They didn't want to see me because I supposedly miss two procedures and when I brought my doctor's bill in for those missed procedure they then went on to say that the doctor just doesn't want to see me anymore. But I know it was because he makes a lot of money off of procedure's and due to my illness I could no longer have them done so he wanted a patient who can so that he can make more money. Plus the injections cause me to have flare ups and admitted to hosp

I've had chronic pain for 10 yrs with multiple major very invasive surgeries that didn't help. I'm a new patient of Dr. Rodriguez and had my 3rd appt today and have to say that so far I am impressed with how thorough he is in identifying the pain as well as treating the pain. I'm scheduled for a minimally invasive procedure next month and keeping my fingers crossed that it helps! He seems to actually care about my pain and concerns and isn't just relying on medication.

Experience started off good, I saw him and he identified things that other docs have not been able to find. Then he just became a pill pusher. He ignores recommendations from Orthopedic surgeons and just keeps pushing pills.

His staff is rude. Getting anyone to help you when you are in pain is impossible. They treat you badly. I have been going to him for 6 yrs. I have been left in pain more times than I can count. I have been in pain for over 32 yrs. 25 surgeries. & yet I & others are all treated like drug seekers instead of true valid people in pain. That just isn't good enough and it should not be good enough.
