Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Saw Dr. Greenwall for an initial consultation; felt sorry for him when I left because he seemed tired and bored. He was available for my questions, but it seemed he couldn't wait to leave the room. Before my steroid injection, I attempted a small joke, he walked away with no comment. My procedure went well, but this doctor is either very, very job weary or he's a jerk.

I recently had my second radiofrequency ablation in 2 years with Dr. Greenwell. My experience with Dr. Greenwell has always been a professional one and I highly recommend his services if you have lumbar /cervical pain. Dr. Greenwell answered all my questions and I received great relief from the procedure. His staff was also very friendly and made my visit awesome.

Totally non-compassionate, doesn't listen or care about patient concerns, poor technique and injection results. Seems to just go through the motions to collect the easy money. Doesn't seem to know California State laws. Likes the easy money, doesn't want to attempt procedures so must not have competence and confidence in himself.

I highly recommend Dr. Greenwell. His expertise and experience in knowing where to give injections have helped me with my pain. He is sincere, empathetic, and kind. He is highly skilled, and we are so fortunate to have him practicing here in Sonora. I have had two spine surgeries in nine years, and Dr. Greenwell helps me with my pain management when the debilitating spine symptoms come back, thus enabling me to live a normal life nearly free of pain.

Takes the time to truly understand the cause of the discomfort and discuss various treatment options. Appears to have a good bedside manner.

Doctor Greenwell is very through and very professional. I am a Polio victim since I was 6 Years old as I got older I have had more back and leg problems. Three other Doctors just wanted to plain it on POST POLIO SYNDROME. It was Doctor Greenwell who listened to me and found a nerve problem that he could treat that changed my life. Thank you Doctor Greenwell
