How likely are you to recommend Dr. Brazill?
I have been a chronic pain patient since 1985 [a combination of 12 herniated discs (thoracic spine) and a blend of chronic classic migraine and tension headaches running around the 8.0 level on the pain scale]. After my previous PMS [Pain Management Specialist] left town, I tried several doctors. They ALL had the same thing in common: they ALL said "You take too much pain medication" cut my dosing, but didn't offer ANYTHING to help compensate for the reduction. One NEVER once looked at me. He looked at my file, consulted a small book from his shirt pocket, stated that I took too much pain medication, cut my dosing in half, said he wanted to see me in a month and turned to walk out. He spent less than 30 seconds in the room talking AT me. I then was referred to Dr. Brazill. What a difference! He said that I WAS taking too much, but he was going to compensate with another medication to serve as a prophylactic against headaches. He went on to say that if this other medication was insufficient there were other possibilities [which he named]. He assured me that he was not going to leave me high and dry. I have been a patient of his for over 20 years, and he has decreased my levels of pain medication and provided other avenues for pain relief that, in concert, work almost as effectively without the deleterious side-effects of narcotics. There is a difference between a 'doctor' and a 'physician.' A 'doctor' is primarily interested in his practice. A 'physician' is primarily interested in his patients. Dr. Brazill is DEFINITELY a physician. In fact, he goes beyond 'physician,' he is a 'healer.'
