This man, Amit Goel is a coward and a fraud. In addition, he has found a way to leverage these…read moreskills into a unique way of doctoring. In lieu of meeting with me, a new patient, he sent a young lady in to tell me that this dude won't see me. Oh? Why? He doesn't see patients that are seeing another doctor. In other words, Goel is stating his suspicion that I am an opioid addict chasing a buzz. I left my previous pain "specialist" over 3 months ago and have been seeking a professional that could effectively treat my pain without pharmaceuticals. Goel, suggested by my PCP, claims to possess that ability. I don't think he does. He never showed me any evidence of that ability. Evasion was evident and an absence of "Doctor" like behaviors was clearly a specialty of pride. That was sealed when the young lady returned to tell me that he won't prescribe the medication I was begging. I walked. What's important here is what happens to my prepaid copay and the charges submitted to my insurance provider. I don't know about my insurance provider but I followed through on my pursuit of a refund. I did give my provider a heads up. Normally I would trust that it would all work out. Not here and not now. Not with this guy. There's a street sense that guides my analysis of things. This is a common scenario in Dr Goel's office, as described a number of times in reviews over the years. Sounds like it works for him. I imagine the patient, an hour plus already deliberately stolen from them, obviously selected not by needs but by profile and not a legitimate opportunity to display the doctor's abilities as a physician. So it's a good thing I'm not a dope chasing junkie that doesn't know how to go get my money back or I'd be out 45 Bucks. I hope it all works out for my provider. Anyway, Amit Goel has given me no reason to recommend him to anyone that might want to discuss options for treating chronic, lifestyle limiting pain without the damaging effects of opioids. He'll have none of that nonsense.

Joe referred me to hand surgeon and I saw her assistant Jamie who was just as I described Joe and she is following up on the wrist. I told Joe that separate from my fall, my knees were hurting and after x-ray, we agreed to doing gel shots in my knees and they are now doing much better.

From the doctor down, you are treated with dignity and the highest of standards. They actually listen, and I've never in my life called an office where the doctor actually answers and speaks on the phone. This place is top notch and worth every penny. I've found so much comfort from my treatment, and my infusions have been some of the best I've ever had. Lolita is his nurse, and she is a gem. She is the kindest, most caring and attentive soul. She will do anything to make your treatment comfortable. From the front office, to the infusion rooms, and then the restrooms this place is spotless. It's clean and comfortable, and you feel like you're visiting a spa more than a doctor's office. This is not a cash cow place. They have an extensive background in anesthesia and keep up on all the latest medical studies on depression, anxiety, PTSD, and pain treatments. I wouldn't go anywhere else. Not to mention, they make every effort to accommodate an appointment as soon as possible, or reschedule appointments when necessary. I'd give them 10 stars if it were possible! Also, you get to enjoy their two puppies, if you are a dog lover like me! Thank you, Dr. Reichbach and Lolita for giving me hope and my life back.

My dad died one year ago, and in 2 months she was dx with myasthenia gravis, spending a month in…read morethe hospital. My mom (85 years old) had no medical problems prior to this other than hypertension, and she was volunteering running the office of Meals on Wheels in her town. Depression set in, and nothing we did could help her. Got her affairs all in order; she had been hinting about suicide for some time; the family all was very engaged and doing the best that all of us could. Nevertheless, she had a suicide attempt one month ago; thankfully with no lasting damage. Her last stop was ketamine. She unwaveringly believed that any of her physical symptoms were a product of depression, she believed it was the disease, which myasthenia gravis (which it does not-it is autoimmune). My 85 years old mom had two ketamine infusions so far. After one treatment we all saw the difference, she denied feeling any different initially The second treatment in the same week-Whoa, we got our mom back! She was out of bed only about 4 hours a day previously. She couldn't walk without walker or cane; she was very unsteady on her feet. No appetite. No interest in anything or anyone. Talked with her eyes closed. This morning she told me, "I can think clearer, it's not as fuzzy. I was pulling weeds in the yard this morning, can you imagine? I went shopping yesterday with Denise for 5 hours!" She has gone to the senior center-alone, on SCAT. She is welcoming physical therapy to come in. She wakes in the morning and goes to bed at night. No naps. She will rest, but she will be on her iPad playing scrabble. Her gait is normal, no walker, no cane, and beginning to zip around like she used to. (We joke it's like miracle like Lazarus). I am an RN of 41 years, many of those years in mental health. I have NEVER seen such excellent results with any treatment. I have to admit, I have been giving her MD's a rough time believing that with "more or different medication" we can treat the exhaustion from her disease. Even a seasoned professional myself did not realize THE EXTENT her depression had on her physical symptoms. The Veterans Administration throughout the country has APPROVED Ketamine Clinics in all their medical centers since nothing so far done has curbed the number of suicides in our veterans. Ketamine is not experimental treatment, it is the state-of the-art treatment for depression. Many people to do not realize that depression has so many physical symptoms; one attributes it to aging or other medical diagnoses. Yes, a medical diagnosis brings on exhaustion of the body, however, the component of the "emotional anguish and exhaustion" of dealing with a physical illness is separate. Depression is NOT a normal process of aging. This is a fallacy. Yes, the older adult has continued loss of friends from death and loss of bodily functions. Nevertheless, sadness to the point of suicide is NOT a part of aging. My grandmother lived until 96. Mom has a good decade yet. Our goal is to get her feeling strong enough to visit Israel again, something place she holds dear to her heart. I'm expecting it will take about 6 months since due to the depression, she has become so debilitated from bedrest so many months. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
