I read some of the poor reviews and think some of those weren't relevant. My Dr was very professional and very attentive. After a thorough review of my situation we discussed a plan of action that needs some insurance approval. I was very pleased with the process and the helpfulness of the office team from start to finish in my first visit. I will be treated for my hand injury and feel confident this is the best team to help me. I look at the other reviews with a grain of salt.

I met with Dr. Vacca after a year of terrible nerve pain which was limiting how I wanted to live my…read morelife. Before I met with Dr. Vacca, I had a zoom call with a top neurosurgeon at Stanford. I am sure I would have gotten outstanding care there but at a much greater cost. Dr. Vacca instilled the same degree of confidence, was straight forward and clear in his communication weighing the pros and cons of the surgery I needed to live my best life. His office staff was engaging and efficient and they scheduled me for surgery, even in the midst of a pandemic, in a very short time period. I was almost pain free immediately after the operation. Dr. Vacca was outstanding and I would recommend him to anyone that could use his areas of expertise. He is the type of doctor that will communicate clearly, be conservative regarding surgery but also tell you if there is someone or some place better suited. I am so grateful I had the opportunity to have him help me.

I waited 4 months to see Dr. Blake at Sierra Neurosurgery in order…read moreto get a neck ablation. The long wait was worth every single day. He greeted me kindly and asked the location of my pain. With the first nerve block he hit the correct area with his needle! I called it the "money shot", and knew there was hope for a better outcome than my previous ablations. Since 2 nerve blocks are required, I had to wait a little longer for the final 3rd visit to get the ablation. Being in the room with just him and ( Tech ) Dave was calming and relaxing. They both treated me with such tender care. My neck is doing REALLY well. Dr. Jacob Blake is 100% worth the wait.

Dr. Blake and His Staff are the absolute worst Dr. to visit. Since I had to drive to Reno for my…read moreappointment I noticed there were several other Drs. at this office. Pick your Dr. wisely. Dr. Blake had been in Truckee ( where I live) only 1 day a month. I saw him and had me get an MRI. Next Month he was gone. No letter or letting patients know that he will practice solely in Reno. He was the only back and neck doctor here. So, I got visit him in Reno. He was training another man at the same time. He was very preoccupied. I just moved to Tahoe Donner from the Bay Area so I'm not used to only having 1 dr. to see. He gave me a few vicadin and was supposed to call to schedule an epidural. I was getting them by a "real dr" before this idiot, I had to remind Dr. Blake to look over my MRI because he forgot he he ordered one for me before his departure from Truckee. I phoned Dr Blake's office prior to Thanksgiving. I spoke again on the answering machine. Again, no response. I'm am over it. I'll go back to Stanford where I won't get the shotty treatment. He should be ashamed of himself.

It's somewhat out of the area, but I think it's worth it. The Dr. Was very thorough and made me feel at ease. I have a follow up in a few weeks to see how I am recovering. I will also start treatment with a machine to help with my nerves. 7/17/19 Update:Follow up office visit. I am so grateful for the referral that brought me here! I've been slowly recovering, and Dr.Bantum has been great. He listens thoroughly, and has a very confident outlook. I'll be back in another few weeks. 8/7/19 Update I'm back again for my re-check. The last time was very helpful!! I like Dr.Bantum's demeanor, and bedside manners. He is very thorough and listens to my questions and frustrations. I'll be back in another few weeks! Another favorite I like, are the tiny sticky pads and pens at the checkout counter!

You never know what you'll get with him, sometimes he's paying attention and a nice guy and sometimes he's a completely different person. He pushed and pushed for me to do all day Ketamine treatments that didn't do anything. When the time came to move from Reno to a major university hospital in another state for treatment, he cancelled my very last appointment and when my father went in to pick up my prescriptions he realized that my prescription for the Fentanyl Patch (which I had been on for years) wasn't there. My father was told that this was the doctor's decision and when my father asked if he could speak to the doctor, he was rudely told NO and that THIS WAS THE DOCTORS DECISION! Then my mother called and asked "why aren't you titrating him down slower?" But she was told the same thing, NO! So, not only was I being transported by car to another state (which caused me incredible pain and suffering) I was also going through withdrawals at the same time...thanks to this cruel, vile man. Please think about this if you're choosing a pain doctor!
