I live in Marin County and at the time the two doctors I was seeing for my severe pain brought on from years or road racing motorcycles and skydiving, we're both moving out of the area. It was extremely hard to find a doctor in my area that would take my insurance and after a bit of a search, I luckily found Michael Yang at Summit Pain Alliance only a short 20 min drive to their office in Petaluma CA. Right away I was at ease with Michael since he was also a former motorcyclist and an alum of the broken collarbone club. I find it helps when talking to doctors that understand the dangers involved with racing and or crashing. Michael and I tried everything to find relief treatments for my my back and neck issues. We eventually tried my first epidural which seemed to work the longest, but after a short period of time, the pain would return and it became my living nightmare. I own a drink company and each case weighs about 11lbs, my general practitioner didn't want me lifting more than 5lbs. When I would do physical work, it just about broke me. I would have to go rest only after a few hours and being on my feet all day was brutally hard. All things suffered, as an entrepreneur RaceFuelZ didn't have a pain free guy at the helm to lead things the best I could. After 2.5 years we tried it all. Increased physical therapy, pain meds, epidurals and even tried a rhizotomy (burn your nerve endings). When that didn't work, I really felt that I was at the end of my rope, (I would never do anything to harm myself, but) I remember saying to Michael, I just don't know how much more I can take of this and I have a high threshold for pain. It was at that time, we discussed me being a candidate for a trial of a new back pain therapy. I would be testing the Nevro HF10 spinal cord stimulation device, an internal battery like a tens device but that would eventually live inside my body. For the trial they don't install the device, they will however run the leads up your spine and connect the wires sticking out of your back into the battery on your waist for a week. Before I go any further, I want to say that I am not a paid reviewer of this system or the doctors office. I am however about to tell you about a partial gift that I have been given with my quality of life. The initial surgery went well, aside from the pain of the tape and discomfort of the wires in your back, the stabbing, crippling pain was pretty much gone, I was afraid to say how much I thought was gone at first because I was so used to things wearing off, but I felt pretty amazing. While having the device in and working for my crippling pain, I sadly realized how many other things in my body hurt that I wasn't able to feel because of the overriding pain in my back and neck. Five days later it was time to get the device unplugged and take the temp leads out (that was gross). I was told by the Nevro rep that I would or could experience the positive effects of the device for a few days. She was right, it lasted 5.5 days. One the final day that it would wear off, the pain came back, not gradually but like a Road runner ton of bricks. It hurt so bad, I actually wept with the thought of living with this pain some more. Luckily my healthcare insurance kicked in and 30 days later I was rolling into the OR ready to have the device put in permanently. 3 Hours later I was rolled out to the curb, hopped out of the chair and was driven home. The recovery of this process is NO JOKE, quite painful but if it would work then I might be out of the agonizing pain I was living with. week 1 = tough, week 2 = tough week 3 = getting allot better and by week 6 I was able to not only sleep pain free through the night, get up and out of chairs without pain, but I was able to sit on an 8.5 hr flight to Iceland where I would hike up glaciers and enjoy a pain free vacation for the first time in 10 years... 7 Months later: I am still in awe of the Nevro Device and have follow ups with Michael Yang and his staff at Summit Pain Alliance. But, I am able to live life almost like a normal person again. I can SLEEP,! lift the groceries out of the cart (sounds stupid I know), lift cases of my product and not wince, ride a bike with my son, drive (which I love) and so many little things that you take for granted on a daily basis. I am reminded that I am not fixed though often without Summit Pain Alliance telling me, my back and neck still remind me if I push things to far and I have to take it easy or easier for a few days to recover. But I can't say enough good things about Summit Pain Alliance and the compassionate team of doctors, nurses and staff have been towards me. If you are in the Santa Rosa, Sonoma, Petaluma or Marin County and in need of a great team. I think you know what I am going to say next. #nevro #summitpainalliance #almostpainfree

Worst experience ever. I went to Dr Hau first for a lumbar epidural and experienced the worse pain…read moreever. Excruciating pain with no relief afterwards at all. A year later I decided to try Dr Hau again for a back ablation. What was I thinking? If I thought that eipurdal was painful, let me tell you, it was nothing like the back ablation. I was screaming during the procedure and had much worse back pain after that than before. Never again. I swore I would never do that again. However, in Jan 2026 I switched over to Kaiser Permanente and decided to see their Spine Specialist who also suggested a lumbar epidural. I was scared to death but he assured me it wasn't bad so I decided to go for it. Well .............. I had that epidural done yesterday and the pain was nothing more than a mild bee sting and it only lasted a few seconds. That was just the numbing agent. When he injected the cortisone, I didn't feel a thing. I left that office feeling like a Happy Camper and pretty much pain free. Day 1, my pain level is about a level 1 but the doctor said it would take a few days for the cortisone to truly take effect so I'm looking forward to more happy days. =) A lady in the Waiting Room told me her epidurals through Dr Vidaurri (Kaiser) lasted 10-14 months. For me, that would be Heaven Scent. My diagnosis: spinal stenosis, sciatica and a cyst on my spine. I am 75 yrs ago. If I could've given Dr Hau zero stars, I would have. If this review were for Dr Vidaurri at Kaiser, I would have given him 5 stars.

Dr. Keller stated, "I am a neurosurgeon, I'm smarter than Dr. X, and I should know you're in real pain and need medication to control your pain." He ordered strong pain medications, and yes, for the first time I was completely out of pain. I was very concerned about the combination of prescriptions and discussed them with my doctors as well as my pharmacist asking them, "Are these combinations of medications were safe to take?" They all confirmed they were safe. I was judicial about taking them and only if I was in horrific pain. Long story short, Thomas Keller is in jail waiting to be sentenced for the death of 3 patients and over-prescribing opioids.
