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.

Concerned about my health
I explained my symptoms to Dr. Balgo and he addressed each one. He had a back up plan for each symptom as well in case what was decided wasn’t working. I have never had an issue with him for many years. His staff is extremely friendly.

Excellent! Ive been on pain management since 1999 which resulted in having two medical implants for the pain and going to OSU because I didn't have anyone in the area. Just as COVID started, my implants 'died' and needed to be replaced, involving major surgery. NOT happening during COVID! At the suggestion of a friend, I saw Dr Balgo and Im glad I did. He is one of the few medical professionals who really shows care and concern for their patient's well being.

Doctor balgo is the most professional doctor i have ever encountered. I have seen him for 6 years. With out doctor balgo i cant work.He has been a blessing and my life continues because he actually cares about treating pain . His work ethic is impeccable ,has not missed a day of work in 20 plus years . He runs a tight ship just as he never misses work he keeps his staff to same standards. He takes pain management seriously ,you do not do things right,or take meds right or pill count off well you better find another doctor as it Should be.Good luck though because pain management patients aare treted like there criminals because there in pain

I have been a patient of Dr Troy Balgo’s for over 6 yrs. I was nurse prior to becoming disabled due to a vehicular wreck in 2008. Before seeing Dr Balgo, I also saw two other pain management doctors that I would NOT ever recommend. Dr. Balgo has always been professional. I’ve heard him lose his temper at times... BUT it’s NO different than I’ve heard from other doctors in their offices or at a hospital setting. If people understood, that it’s HIS license on the board to lose if they don’t document properly, bill properly, or patients don’t follow the agreed upon rules... that they signed off on to adhere to his rules... there will be admonishments and some things said... patient or employee.... that will disgruntle some. He is TRULY the best pain management doctor in the St Clairsville, OH/Wheeling, WV area. Just follow the rules you agreed to accept and you’ll have a wonderful doctor-patient relationship.

I have never met a more unprofessional, demeaning, and ignorant person/ doctor in my life. He screams and belittles his patients and staff. He curses and screams. You can hear him throughout his office with other patients discussing their visit. I would never recommend him to anyone. Also be aware that he is billing indirectly for his visits. Its fraud.
