I was able to get an initial appointment within 3 weeks and my follow-up appointments have all been within a week to 10 days. This is unheard of when seeing a neurologist in the area. For example: It took me 3 months to get a primary care appointment for the referral, and was booked 4 months out after that for an initial appointment with a neurologist at The Portland Clinic. All of the interventions I've received so far have been very helpful for my nerve pain that has been contributing to my headaches and migraines. Lastly, all of the staff has been kind and courteous to me at all my visits. I highly recommend this clinic to anyone experiencing chronic pain. I'm very grateful that I found it.

I canceled my appointment before I ever met with the provider because my experience with the office…read morestaff made me uncomfortable trusting this practice with my health. As a patient seeking help for pain, communication matters. Before my appointment, I tried to confirm the details but did not receive a clear response by email, text, or phone. When a medical office is difficult to reach before you are even seen, that raises serious concerns about how responsive they will be once you are actually under their care. After receiving no confirmation, I contacted the office. When I did not receive a confirmation of the cancellation, I called a second time and left a voicemail message canceling my appointment a second time. Despite that, I was later billed as a "no show", which is unacceptable. If the office fails to respond, fails to properly confirm an appointment, and then fails to process a cancellation, the patient should not be penalized for that breakdown. I cannot speak to the doctor's medical care because I never made it that far. But I can speak to the office experience, and it was poor enough that I chose not to proceed. For anyone dealing with pain, the last thing you need is added stress, unclear communication, and billing issues before care has even begun. This experience left me with the impression that the practice is more focused on collecting fees than making patients feel heard, supported, and properly cared for.

I had PRP treatment on my wrist with Dr. Jones about 12 weeks ago, and I am thrilled to say that I…read moream now out of pain. I had been dealing with intense arm and wrist pain for over a year. I tried several other methods of pain relief, but nothing truly helped or turned the healing process around. My chiropractor finally recommended that it was time to see Dr. Jones. He shared how Dr. Jones had helped heal his own shoulder and encouraged me to go for an evaluation. I am so grateful I did. From the moment I met Dr. Jones, his gentle and informative approach put me at ease. He took his time to explain all treatment options thoroughly and answered every question I had. He is professional, kind, attentive, and genuinely invested in the well-being of his patients. After his clear explanation of the different procedures, I chose to move forward with PRP. To my surprise, the very next day after the procedure, I had no pain. I immediately felt relief, was able to sleep through the night again, and could complete my work duties without discomfort. I honestly couldn't believe it, what a tremendous relief! I returned for my 6-week and 12-week check-ups, and I am still pain-free. I highly recommend Dr. Jones. His expertise, professionalism, and sincere care for his patients are truly exceptional. If you are struggling with ongoing pain, he is absolutely the doctor you want to see.

I discovered Radiant via a friend who was walking her own journey of pain, and thought it sounded strange, but was up for anything that could help. Radiant offered a free session (I think they still do) so I decided why not give it a shot. After that first session i couldn't believe how I was feeling. I was ecstatic at the first pain free few hours in the last decade!! I immediately signed up for a full course and had daily treatments for the first couple of weeks and then tapered back to once or so a week. Over time the pain relief was substantial and I was able to get completely off the meds. I was 70-80% pain free. My pain became so much more manageable and felt I had my active life back. I can't recommend this company any higher!

From my first visit I have been very pleased with most of the interactions with staff and Doctors here. Specifically, Veronica the MA in the orthopedic clinic, Dr. Hwang and his PA Michael Cunningham as well as Heidi Tyson my rehab therapist are all excellent. My experience at the surgical center was also as smooth as I could have possibly imagined. The staff, nurses, and anesthesia team were great. I never felt like I was in a scary hospital setting, and people paid attention and checked in on me often. As a fellow healthcare professional I know how to run a business and care for patients without my office feeling like a people mill. This is not like other large clinics or hospitals I have been to. It feels more personal and more like a family practice.

Do not go here. At all costs…read more They served my wife with a subpoena at her place of business for an amount that could not even partially recoup the court fees and collection costs for such an expense. Only barely 3 figures. We never even received a bill or late notice. They have also sent an amount to collections for me (mid 2 figures, not a joke) for something I have no record of. We can pay and are not criminals because your billing practices are hopelessly disorganized. Untrustworthy and malicious in its practices. Petty in its operations. Avoid. I would sue them myself if not for the fact that unlike them I am mature enough not to care about such petty amounts. Let's all hope the desperation is a sign of imminent failure of their business.

They communicate clearly and follow through on their end whether it's for refills, referrals or getting more information. Their staff are excellent. I've never felt looked down on or condescended towards. I've also never felt like I was being treated as if I were an addict, which sadly is not true of all pain clinics. They ask questions each and every time I see them to stay up to date on how I'm doing and how things are working for me. They are open and honest about the benefits and detriments of available treatment and while they only handle pain management, they do view patients holistically to help me get all the care I need both in and outside of their office. I wish all medical providers and especially pain clinics were like this.

Balog 's office never did fax my left shoulder arthrogram to my surgeon. In May 2019, Balog's office finally got around to faxing to my orthopedic surgeon of record since 2016-- a mish-mash of incomplete medical reports that did not include my arthrogram MRI report. No where did Carl Balog indicate that I was a surgical referral. Therefore, Carl Balog claimed that he was coordinating a surgical plan with my orthopedic surgeon of record in a timely manner since 10-2018 and in 11-2020 he never did. In addition, Balog instead sent out two different medical charts-- one report went to the insurer and a totally different medical chart was sent to to me. Despite his knowing of this problem it continued for eight months Balog did not provide me a medical chart for 04-2020 or 05-2020 despite my request for these reports. Since COVID-19 Balog has not seen me in person since March of 2020 and we were having medical appointments every month by phone.

I was referred to Dr. Khemlani by my surgeon a few weeks ago. To be blunt, I was very nervous about…read morethe appointment and procedure. Dr. Khemlani met me for my first appointment, accommodating a scheduling conflict to make sure I was seen in a timely fashion. Dr. Kehmlani went to bat for me with my insurance to ensure I got an approved prior authorization. He truly had to go the extra mile. Further, the next day I was seen for the actual procedure. I was honestly terrified. He took the time to stop and speak calmly with me, reassuring me all would be fine. He took time. He showed compassion. He was above-and-beyond professional... but more importantly, he was kind. Providers like Dr. Khemlani are FEW are FAR BETWEEN. Providers that truly express empathy and grace are a rare find any more and I'm quite lucky to have been referred to him. Even better, he has a ridiculously good sense of humor and made the rather unpleasant procedure 100% tolerable... painless one would say. I can't speak highly enough of Columbia Pain Management and Dr. Khemlani. He and his staff were all spectacular and I appreciate everyone for their great care.
