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.

He is one amazing Dr Always listens to your concerns and has helped me tremendously

If I could give 0 stars, I would. First off- it took nearly 3 months to get an appointment. I was first told that they needed records, which is understandable. However, I couldn't bring them, they had to be faxed from my current dr. I did that and was told repeatedly that they never received the m. I then asked if my PCP could send them since my current pain dr sends them reports every time he saw me? I was told by Southwest Sports that wasn't allowed. Finally, my PCP intervened and South Sports accepted the records. The next hurdle was insurance. I was told during the very first call that they accepted my insurance. Then, I would get multiple voicemails during the record transfer informing me that they didn't accept my insurance??? It never changed. Finally, I received an appointment. I arrived 30 minutes early for an 8:30a appointment...even though I filled out the paperwork online. I was given nothing but grief once we arrived. After an hour, and nearly the entire waiting room (wh

Dr Garza is an AMAZING and compassionate man. My 1st bisit he actually sat and listened to all of my concerns and I've got a lengthy and complicated medical history. That may sound like a small thing but I assure you that it is not! Unfortunately I have experienced many Drs that want to rush you in and out like cattle. Your just a number. But not with Dr Garza! His nurse staff is amazing as well. Very friendly and compassionate as well. I would recommend Dr Garza to anyone that needs the kind of specialty care that he provides!

I have been seeing Dr Garza for over 5 years now and by far he is the best pain Dr in Fort Worth. His staff is friendly and very efficient. Dr GarZa takes his time and listens to every word I say and responds in terms I can understand. He is not afraid to treat chronic pain however he is not a script writing Doctor as many I saw before him. He is the real deal and cares tremendously about his patients I tell everyone I know that has a serious pain issue to see Dr Mark GarzA. I am Blessed to have him as my doctor.

My wife has been a patient of Dr Garza for 7 years. After an exhaustive search. We tried three other pain management specialist in the Ft Worth -Keller - Flower Mound area. Dr Garza is by far and above the finest Dr in this field in North Texas. My wife suffers from an auto-immune disease that attacks her connective tissue resulting in spinal fusion that, as many do, failed to resolve her back pain. Dr Garza has the courage to treat his patients despite the government.

Dr. Garza is the most compassionate, caring, wonderful doctor I have ever had the pleasure knowing. I received awful treatment at the VA and he took over my care after being injured in the line of duty. He actually talks to me and treats me almost like he is family not a number like the VA doctors do. I was diagnosed with renal, prostate and bladder cancer and he has gone above and beyond all other doctors to help me and my family through this last year of chemo and surgeries. Great doctor!!!!!!

Dr. Garza has to be the most unprofessional "Dr" I have ever met. I have been a pain management patient for 13 years. But now im, 100% bedridden, and have 0 quality of life. I went to Dr Garza for any kind of help, even surgery..anything that will give me even a tiny bit of quality of life. He walked in the room no exam or anything except spewing that he will not help me because I'm on an antidepressant (because of pain). He is really taking his oath to "Do No Harm". Very unprofessional.

Dr garza and dr Menzies did surgery on my husband two weeks ago. His pain is gone from his back and is doings ng great. Following all the instructions the Drs gave him. These two men are angels sent by God to help heal people. I would recommend them to anyone who has back problems like my husband did.(from a fall) he is still healing but it's almost like a miracle the way he was taken care of. Bless both of you and Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.. Glenda Darter (Robert) 6/23/17

This office is extremely unprofessional, I came in with medicare/medicaide and they filed me under work comp. I guess he needed clients that bad. Opened a new work comp case for me and had the nerve to tell me I had to close it. I got the shots as Dr. Garza suggested and it back fired on me, of course that wasn't the Dr.s fault but I do not recomend them. Dr. Garza was very nice but did not listen to what I had to say at all.

After a failed dual spinal fusion I went through many doctors looking for someone to listen to me and actually care about the pain I was still experiencing. Dr. Garza did this and so much more. He didn't just throw pain medicine at me and send me out the door. We took many different avenues of approach and over time settled on a plan that worked for both of us. I was very lucky to find him and am glad doctors like him still exist.

I am one of those people you're hearing about on the news who have ended up hooked on opioids after seeing this guy for about a year. Continued prescribing me highly addictive drugs even after almost dying, and he knew I had a problem with them. Once he knew my family was extremely upset with him, he urged rehab and I have not heard from him since. Thankfully I have been able to get the help I needed to detox, and clear my system of these awful drugs.
