I had switched doctors due to a personal conflict. She came into the exam with her mind already made up based on her contact with prior doctor. I was immediately ""labeled"" . I can believe that my treatment was decided before I arrived and was examined in her office. \r
The name suggests that they will treat long term pain, as I have. I think most ""pain management doctors"" are most interested in doing procedures like steroid injections instead of writing medicines that actually work for the individual patient.\r
I am not unrealistic in expectations either. Would I like to be ""cured"" ? ya betcha. Do I feel she has tried to work with me? NO. I do expect a doctor to be flexible and change course of treatment that fits the patient's needs. I do not feel she was interested in what I had to input into my care.. SHE DID NOT LISTEN (HEAR) what I had to say. \r
I will say that I think she is a good technichian at the procedure she performed on me.\r
I also will say that I arrived early for the procedure and had to wait an unexpected LONG time for the procedure- without explaination.
Pros: verey modern surgical site
Cons: ran way late with no explaination- Dr. was not in tune with my needs
