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.

I was referred to this Dr because I was having low back pain and after going to the Chiropractor I had no relief. They did scans and found that I had degenerative disc disease. Dr Sidor said I needed to try medications before they would do injections. She prescribed Voltaren and I started to get hives. She then switched me to Mobic. All the while I have a kidney disorder that effects my heart. The pharmacy alerted me to the interactions this was having with my blood pressure meds. I called and talked to a nurse and she spoke to the dr and I was told to stop using everything and they would do the injections. Needless to say Dr Sidor did not do my injections because I found Dr Foster at WVU. I had my injections and they gave me stretching exercises to do and I have not had any problems 8 months after. Dr Sidor did me wrong in so many ways!!!

She is a wonderful physician, and I have never heard her discuss political issues. She is professional and courteous to her patients and fellow peers.

She talks down to the patient, she doesn't care if you are in pain. She shouldn't be a pain management physician. Very degrading visit

Dr. Sidor is wonderful! I had a nuerostimulator in my spinal column that had cease to function and was put on iPods to tolerate the pain by a pain Dr in Md. I moved to Pa and found her. She was able to give me shots in my back that not only got me off of the iPods, but enabled me to have the nuerostimulator removed! She told me the shots could last a few weeks to a year that every patient was different. I am now going back to her to see about another round of injections. April will be 3 years se

I was at first impressed by Dr. Sidor until she dropped the ball, and I realized she does not communicate directly, she does not do her homework in terms of learning about her patient, she is narrow-minded, judgmental, and operates from a biased view on pain relief ... she is a gatekeeper and not a healer - if you are in pain, I'd suggest you avoid Dr. Sidor; she is insensitive, arrogant, hostile, and YOUR PAIN IS IRRELEVANT, for she is guided by political pressure and is NOT a people's doctor.
