There is only one review of this office/doctor and it's from 6 years ago. I'd have to guess that the rest of the people that have visited are too busy dealing with their pain to bother posting.

What a joke of an appointment! The doctor did NOT listen to me. He asked me questions several times that I had already answered. He latched on to the fact that I have neuropathy - when my main and major complaint is the constant sometimes debilitating pain from my hip. I can deal with the neuropathy all day long and was not seeking treatment for that. But the medication he was pushing would NOT help with my bone on bone hip pain - but it would help the neuropathy.

I am having hip replacement in just a few months. I need medication that is stronger than the 800mg of ibuprofen that I take all day, every day to alleviate the pain until I can get to that point. Due to the high number of addicts in this area, no one wants to prescribe anything that will help and my PCP forced me to go here. They would rather leave someone like me - with zero history of addiction issues and at the lowest risk on the assessment they made me take - in pain rather than prescribe something that could help me.
