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.

Fantastic pain doctor
I've been to him several times for my sedated back injections. He is awesome and very knowledgeable. I think alot of these negative reviews stem from him not having much of a bedside manner at all. But I'd rather have quality Healthcare than a dr to be my bedside buddy. 5 stars from me

Rudest man in healthcare
Dr is the rudest man in health care. He doesn't speak to you, he grunts at you. In the roughly 4 appointments that I had with him, he spoke 2 words. When it came time for trigger point injections, he jabbed at me like he was striking with an ice pick. Never again.

He was rushed and rude. Started pushing on my legs and in a raised voice told me to relax. I didn't know which way he wanted my leg to go and he started squeezing my knee and I had a bruise after. He pushed so hard down on my hips and stomach I yelped and he rudely said just your back does it hurt, to which I replied you're hurting me. He seemed offended.

Rude and not caring
I arrived at my appointment having held my most of my medications on my own because nobody had said to or given me anything to tell me to. I did take my aspirin. In the past I've been told the low dose aspirin doesn't matter for test or anything. However this doctor was absolutely rude about it. Acted as if I had committed a crime. When I explained I wasn't given instruction he indicated I should have known. I didn't and I'm not a medical person. On other treatments he was equally rude and just not personable.

Did Not Give Us Much Time or Help
My son was seen here for a chronic pain condition. We had to wait a long time to get an appointment and drove two hours to get there. The office was hard to find because the signs on the main floor haven't been updated. He had to fill out a bunch of paperwork but didn't have enough time before being seen, so no one even looked at it. The doctor only came in for a couple of minutes, and barely examined my son at all. The doctor just grabbed his legs and pushed them towards his chest while pushing on his hips & asked if it hurt. Afterwards my son was in so much pain from this he could barely drive home. The doctor said that he doesn't treat his condition and referred him back to the doctor who sent us there because she felt like he needs a specialist. He didn't want to prescribe any medication or therapies. He was given guidebooks about how to treat his pain at home with exercises, but my son can barely move. Then the doctor ordered an x-ray, but it was of the wrong body part.

The name says it all. I refer to him as Dr. Shady because he is Shady. He is very rude. I took non-conventional ways for treatment it was like pulling teeth for him and his P.A. to get me help for fibromyalgia I had to beg and plead for help. His latest response was I don't treat fibromyalgia go find another Dr. . I don't know why he waited 6 months to inform me. I also had things show up on x-ray that was never looked into i pointed out that is when he basically pushed me off to another Dr. . If you go to him please either know anatomy or look it up on a credible website. Very poor manners.

I don't know who to blame for the lack of following-up regarding recommended testing or appointments, him or his staff. There is no following up on a prescribed treatment. They say they submitted an order for this or that test but in actuality, they never submitted it. It is up to the patient to figure out who to call and become the intermediary between the lab and his clinic. It seems like things are a complete chaos in his office. Also, he takes forever to see you again or follow up with his treatment. Then, his excuse will be "if we had acted earlier, we could had stopped it on time." Guess what? He is the expert, not the patient.

My experience has been excellent. He explains why he does what he does and will work with you using various pain treating protocols. He has helped quite a bit.

Love this Dr! He is so friendly and caring of my pain. He visited me in the hospital when my side went crazy and booked me in on his own time to do a nerve block. He has performed 4 nerve blocks on me and a shot into my pelvic because of arthritic pain. He is so caring and kind!
