Patient Reviews
Sep 05, 2024
I just read some of her negative reviews just to see what anyone could possibly complain about with this practice. I've been with this group for over 7 years for a reason. ANYONE who has a problem with her is probably just a seeker. ANYONE complaining that she only wants to do blocks- Well, GUESS WHAT? That is her job! She is the only board-certified interventional pain doctor in the area. You dont go to your orthopedic surgeon and then get upset and claim he just wants money because he wants to operate on your knee. So, why are you upset when you see one of the best interventional pain doctors and she recommends injections? She definitely does not put up with crap from drug-seekers- so maybe you guys should go check out the guys down the road and leave those of us who really want to feel better, not just get doped up, to someone else.
