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.

Dr.John is by far the best Doctor I have ever had, my only regret is that he can’t treat me for everything, if he could he would be my only physician. He talks to you and more importantly he listens to you. I have never been examined by a pain management doctor before and when he examined me I knew then that he cared about my pain, to know exactly where my discomfort was. He’s not only a doctor he’s a friend. And he’s not a doctor for the money, he really cares

I've asked my docter to refer any patient to him
Explained any and everything he could to me and my wife. Seems like he took a very personal interest with my problems. Remembered who I was when crossing him in hallways of his practice. Didn't promise me anything. My wife and I love him. What he has done for me in less than a year succeeds what my previous doctor did in 25+ years. I recommend him to any person dealing with the same problems I've had. I have just requested my personal doctor to drop the pain medication I take to a lower dosage. All pain is not gone, but he never promised it would. I'm at a very livable pain level, but riding in vehicles intensifies pain for a few days. Love this Doctor.

I was in a “minor” fender bender that did a surprising amount of damage to my neck. Four months of physical therapy helped somewhat, but I still had a distracting amount of pain, enough that it made it hard to function. I was referred to Dr John for further treatment. He’s just tremendous! His treatment is making a huge difference and he is very caring! His staff is great too!

Dr. John is professional, caring, and efficient. I was always called in to the patient room at or before appointment time. The office is clean. The employees who work for Dr. John are helpful, friendly, efficient and respectful. I have had 6 appointments and this never varied from experience to experience. Dr. John’s procedures have me 100% no pain, after years of horrid back pain. I recommend Dr. John to everyone with back pain. ??

Dr. John is an excellent doctor. I was provided excellent care which resulted in a significant improvement of my quality of life. His office staff are to be commended as well. In these times of lack of attention to detail it is refreshing to experience health issues resolved via the expertise of a doctor that pays attention to detail and genuinely reflects care for the patient. I highly recommend him.

Went to see Dr. John as a referral from my back doctor. I had a pinched nerve from an old back injury and it was affecting my lower back and left leg. This was my first time going to a pain specialist so I wasn't sure what to expect. Dr. John was great!! He is very informative and takes time to listen and explain your options. He recommended getting a steroid injection for my lower back. The painless procedure lasted about 15 minutes and so far about 3 weeks later, I'm pain free!!

My experience with Dr. John has been above excellent! I find his willingness to work with a patient to create a health plan for pain management miles above any other doctor that I have worked with. He and his staff are polite and very easy going. It does not take long to get an appointment, and waiting times in his office are very short. I would recommend Dr. John to anyone I know!!
