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. Purswani and his staff did an excellent job in my recent treatment. They were attentive and courteous. Dr. Purswani answered all my questions and spent time without making me feel rushed. I can say I believe they actually care for their patients. I would recommend him and his staff to my friends and family.

I am beyond impressed with Dr Purswani and his entire staff. He goes above and beyond what I have experienced with pain management physicians in the past. As a patient with a 30+ year history of back problems, including multiple surgeries, MRI’s , myelograms, various spinal injections , I appreciate his attention to my well being as a whole as well as the condition causing my pain. I can’t say enough good things about the care I receive

Dr. Shyam S Purswani is a great pain doctor! I didn’t know what I was missing. I have been to so many different pain doctors in ten years. Most of them put me on massive, opiate pain relievers and then wondered why I had trouble working or why I was unhappy with my life. He offered suggestions to help repair my body so that my pain level is minimized and listened to my concerns about harmful or expensive medications. He and his nurse, Lucy, are courteous and take the time to understand you.

Julia in San Antonio, Texas – Feb 21, 2018

I would not recommend Dr Purswani to either my friends or family due to the lack of respect he shows his patients. If you have chronic pain issues (10 years of documentation, injured in 2006) he automatically labels you as a drug seeker/addict and does nothing to find the root cause of the pain. The purpose of pain management is to manage the pain, this man is unprofessional to say the VERY least and does not listen to his patients. I would not darken his door and have fired him for this reason.
