I went to seemingly every kind of doctor, including Stanford Pain Clinic, but still the pain kept coming back and ruined my quality of life. Finally I found Dr. Perry and went to see him. He examined me and we talked for a long time. I was impressed by how much he cared and listened. Dr. Perry gave me some medication that immediately got the pain under control. In subsequent visits, he monitored my progress and suggested various ways to avoid aggravating my condition. After a while, I was able to go on a small dose of a maintenance medication, and live my life generally pain-free. I am so grateful to Dr. Perry for showing me a way out of the terrible pain I used to suffer from every day. From time to time Dr. Perry has seminars about pain control. These are really useful. Also he recommends other therapies that can be used to help heal old injuries and reduce the amount of medication required to get a good result. If you are hurting, do yourself a favor and make an appointment with Dr Perry!

Dr. Murakami did not rush me, took the time to genuinely listen, explain treatment options, including some less conventional ones, and I left feeling like she understood how my chronic pain impacts me and genuinely is curious what's going on with my spine, muscles, bones, etc and wants to help. It's unfortunately rare to find a doctor that takes their time and listens to their patients and I feel fortunate to have found Dr. Murakami. She's clearly incredibly knowledgeable and enjoys sharing information, which I really appreciate.

Even before she gave me my first shot, she mentioned that it could take two, which is what was needed. Before the first shot, we tried doing a pill method, which told me, she wasn't in a hurry to give me a quick fix. The first shot went well, but as she had said, it will take two. She has won my trust with her knowledge and discernment in this process. I look forward to see how the second shot will work. I definitely recommend Dr. Mikiko Murakami of Sport and Spine, if you are having back issues.

She put in so much extra work behind the scenes, and I truly appreciate all the time, patience, and dedication she and Ginger gave to helping resolve everything. My medical care truly could not have happened without their support, and it has been life-changing for me. A huge thank you as well to Sarah for making sure we were scheduled for the procedure and helping everything come together smoothly and on time. Her help made the entire process seamless. This team truly cares about their patients, and it shows in every interaction. I am beyond thankful for all of their help and highly recommend this office.

I received a call the day before my appointment asking me to review, in detail, the original phone…read moreconversation from when I scheduled my visit. I was told this was necessary because the employee who booked my appointment had been terminated, and there was no documentation in my chart. I clearly explained at that time why I was seeking care and specifically asked the receptionist to verify my insurance eligibility to ensure I could see the physician. When I arrived for my appointment, I was informed that it had been scheduled incorrectly. After waiting approximately 20 minutes, I was told I needed to contact my insurance company to obtain my physical insurance card information. While I was on the phone with my insurance provider, the doctor briefly came to the front desk area. At the time, it appeared to be a casual interaction with staff, but given the circumstances, it seemed possible she had been informed that my insurance information had not been properly collected by the former receptionist. Once I provided the required insurance details, I was finally taken to an exam room by a medical assistant. As I sat down, the staff member commented that the doctor was not friendly and could be rude and abrupt. My blood pressure was taken and measured at 140/103, which is elevated. The assistant stated she would not inform the doctor and would instead retake it because she did not want to "go there" with her. When retaken, I was told it was still high. The staff member asked additional questions and mentioned I would see her again after the doctor completed the examination. However, just two minutes later, she returned to inform me that the doctor had left and would not be seeing me that day. I was asked if I would like to reschedule. Although I remained composed and declined, I left the office in tears, feeling defeated and deeply disappointed. It is difficult to understand how someone seeking medical care could be treated in this manner. I will be contacting patient relations, and I felt it was important to share this experience here as well.

You can NEVER get a call back when requested rather you send multiple messages back and forth, rely on a 3 rd party to capture your conversation, summarize, and it's the equivalent of a poor game of "telephone".

Dr. Adrian Bartoli is truly one of the best doctors I have encountered throughout my mother's…read morehealthcare journey. My mother suffered thoracic fractures and had to be rushed to the emergency room twice due to severe spinal and neck pain. Both times, Dr. Bartoli treated her, referred to us by the hospital doctors. During an incredibly stressful period for our family, he was calm, patient, and compassionate. What stood out most was how carefully he listened. He took the time to thoroughly explain my mother's condition, the procedures, and what we could expect in recovery. He never rushed us, and he made sure I understood everything. His bedside manner is exceptional -- kind, reassuring, and professional. I also deeply appreciate that he does not default to prescribing painkillers. Instead, he encourages a holistic approach to recovery and long-term improvement. At our follow-up appointment, he discussed multiple strategies to support my mother's healing beyond just medication, which gave us confidence that he truly cares about sustainable health outcomes. It's rare to find a doctor who combines technical skill, integrity, and genuine compassion the way Dr. Bartoli does. We are incredibly grateful for his care, and I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking thoughtful and patient-centered treatment.

In a world of quick fixes and symptom masking, he is the rare practitioner who slows down and actually looks for the root cause. Coming in, I thought I understood what holistic care meant. Over time, he helped me connect the dots between my mind and body in ways I hadn't considered, and reframed how I think about my health entirely. What sets him apart is his empathy. He never made me feel like a condition to manage. He listened, adjusted, and made it clear that my care was personal to him. Two years in, he still exceeds my expectations.

Fast forward to today; no follow-up call received about the X-Ray in a month's time frame. 1-1/2hr before the appointment scheduled(1month ago), I receive a cancellation of the appointment today, requesting an MRI that was ordered by the doctor. Unsure why this didn't occur within days of the X-ray a or so month ago? Cannot say this place values people's time, or truly cares about patients pain levels or experiences. Tried to contact patient coordinators after receiving the call, no answer. Decided to arrive for my appointment and asked in-person for details. Only apologies, but no explanation from the actual doctor. Will continue to visit larger medical providers and doctors at Sutter Health or Stanford for health care concerns,truly disappointed.
