The operations went great and the post operative care was great as well at Grand Strand Medical Center. Cannot say enough good about the operation staff, Dr. Giddens or the hospital care staff. I would recommend all of them to anybody that is not a Type 1 diabetic. Unfortunately being a Type 1 GSMC rules did not allow for patient input for insulin and their ideas of diabetic care resulted in many many hours of hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia . Discussion with the controlling Endocrinologist yielded no cooperation so there was no recourse except to checkout of GCMC against medical advice, even though therapy had not been completed. This was necessary in order to regain control of my blood glucose.

I have been dealing with Pain Management for well over 25 years, and since moving to Myrtle Beach,…read moreI have been looking for someone to be able to manage my pain medication's as well as helped me with epidural/injections. Dr. Charles Stanley is the one whom I see monthly in order to refill my oxycodone. He has an amazing bedside manner, is very kind and truly makes his patience, feel that they are in a safe and wonderful environment. Also, they know that Dr. Stanley honestly cares about his patients. Dr. Snodderly's team is physical intervention side of the practice. She performs occipital nerve blocks, epidurals, nerve blocks/ablations among other tools of her trade. Just today, I had an ablation on my back. With Dr. Snodderly. She is without a doubt, the most caring and, in my opinion, the most gentle physician to ever put a needle in my back. Also, even multiples at a time!! she and her staff makes you feel so comfortable. The way that she has her bedside manner and banter makes you feel like you're one of the family and you are important!! She truly cares about your results and is expertly trained so that the lidocaine doesn't even burn because she adds an ingredient so it will not burn!! During my ablation on my left side, I literally hardly felt any pain at all!! I felt at ease. If you were looking for a Pain Management group, this is it!!! I recommend this group with my life, and I do not plan on going anywhere else... Well, I am 55 this year and I am truly hoping that they stay here for at least 25+ years!! I am certain that the new doctor would be vetted beyond compare so that they can continue the amazing work that this physicians group maintains. Thank you, Dr. Snodderly and thank you Dr. Stanley!! I'm looking forward to seeing you again soon!! God bless you and your practice and all of your patients. I highly recommend that you see this practice and both doctors mentioned. I am beyond thrilled with my care at United Physicians Pain management Group.

My experience with Surgical Associates of Myrtle Beach…read more I was diagnosed by Dr. Nicholson with a large umbilical hernia that required open hernia surgery. I went in for Same Day Surgery 7/06/16 and after a 6 inch incision was sent home in a binder with oxycodone for pain management. I tried to sleep but my skin felt like it was on fire and I was breaking out into hived like blisters and my pain was horrible so at 3 hours in we called Dr. Nicholson and explained we thought I was allergic to the oxycodone and could we get something else. He then suggested Tylenol with Codeine and I knew in the past that Tylenol with codeine has made me sick to my stomach so I asked for something different and he said no and that because the pain was terrible to take 2 oxycodone and some Benadryl. So that is what we did and I did not sleep for 3 days and because I was taking a double dose we ran out and called Saturday night but was informed that the office was not open until Monday and that they could not help me. I also reached out to my doctor but she would not see me because I had not been released back to her yet. So with very little sleep for a week, we went for follow up the next Wednesday where I was diagnosed with an infection and put on antibiotics. I was doing a bit better, not great but better when I went to see Dr. Nicholson 2 weeks later but the hives kept coming and coming. A week later I woke up with my eye swollen shut covered in hives everywhere and crusting over my incision and that itchy throat that means I am heading for trouble. I went to the Urgent care because of course my surgeon's office was closed and they shot me me up with prednisone and gave me allergy pills, prednisone pills and cream. They were so kind to me that I cried since I had not been treated with kindness through any of this. The hives started to go away and I woke up this morning to my incision coming open in 2 dime like spots so I called the surgeon and they had me come in. I walked in crying because well I was scared and hurting and just so tired. Dr. Nicholson was not there so I was seen by Lane I. Moore, MD, who threw the door open to the exam room looked at my incision and said this is your fault because you smoke and I was trying to explain to him my allergic reaction to oxycodone and the hell that had ensued since that and he said you did not have an allergic reaction, he said put a gauze pad on it and tape, quit smoking and wounds have been healing for thousands of years on their own. There has been one saving grace through this practice and that is the nurse, not sure of her name she has red hair, slightly older, she has been so kind and loving and the only reason I have gone back.
