The doctor truly listens and takes the time to care about what you're going through, which means so much when you're dealing with pain. I also have to give a special shout-out to the best nurse ever, Jada. She is kind, compassionate, and always makes you feel comfortable and cared for. She goes above and beyond every visit, and you can tell she genuinely cares about her patients. If you're looking for a place where you're treated like a person, not just a patient, this is it. I'm very grateful for the care I receive here.

I've been coming to Nevada Advanced Pain Specialist for the past couple of months, and even though…read moreI live in Reno, the drive is absolutely worth it. The facility itself is clean, modern, and welcoming, and the downtown Carson City location is convenient and easy to access. I genuinely cannot say enough good things about the staff and the level of care provided here. My physician, Shaylee Nystrom, consistently goes above and beyond. She is highly competent, thorough, and clearly excellent at what she does. What really sets her apart, though, is her demeanor--she has a naturally cheerful and reassuring presence that immediately puts me at ease and noticeably improves my mood. Appointments never feel like a cold, transactional medical visit. Instead, they feel thoughtful, supportive, and human. She strikes the perfect balance between professionalism and genuine care, and she always makes me feel confident that everything is going to be okay--almost like talking with a trusted doctor who truly knows and cares about you. The front desk staff, physician assistants, and procedural assistants--especially Ashlyn--are equally outstanding. They are efficient, organized, and professional, but also warm and kind. Everything is done with ease, grace, and a welcoming attitude that makes you feel respected and valued from the moment you walk in. I'm grateful to be receiving care here during the course of my injury, and I know this is a place I'll remember positively long after my treatment is complete. If you're looking for a pain management clinic that combines medical expertise with genuine compassion, I would highly recommend Nevada Advanced Pain Specialist.

It is usually pretty easy to get an appointment but they must adhere to insurance restrictions on timing. Office staff and the docs are all friendly and caring. The office is always sparkling clean. My main complaint is how consent to treatment is handled, it is put in front of the patient as you enter the treatment room with no opportunity to actually read it. It shouldn't be that difficult to hand out the document when you check in to afford a bit of time to read. Patients are only given a copy on request post procedure and I've not been in shape to remember to ask for it then.

I've been to surgery centers before, and have had good experiences and marginal experiences. This was a great experience!! I think this place is smaller than most, and it does a variety of surgeries, not a single proceedure for everyone. Not sure, but possibly this is why the staff seems interested and engaged. Check in was great, although they did have me down for a few allergies that I don't have. The friendly front desk ladies got it fixed quickly. I waited briefly in the first calming area. Esper took me to the prep area, she has a really nice, caring sister vibe. The nurse, I can't remember her name, was great also. Explained everything perfectly and got the IV in expertly, on the first try! The anesthesiologist-can't remember her name either, was so nice! She listened carefully to my concerns, regarding issues I've had in the past, and seemed genuinely interested. And mentioned some possible reasons for past experiences. She and the rest of the team, didn't seem to be in a hurry or in a scheduling rush, it was like I was their only patient, and my comfort was a main concern. At other places I've felt like I was just one of the herd waiting to be tagged and loaded onto a conveyer belt. Thank you so much for making this a better experience! The only downside, is that you are only seperated from other patients by a curtain-the usual set up. I kind of felt bad knowing that other patients could hear the scary things I was relating, to the anesthesiologist, not wanting them to be scared, as some were first timers, I heard.

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!

Amazing, totally amazing…read more I had written to my primary care doctor through MyChart to request a referral to see a pain specialist. I had an appointment with him scheduled in a week, and he replied that we could discuss it then. No urgency, no help in the moment. In the meantime, I tried calling a pain management office within his own network (Carson Tahoe Health), hoping to bypass the referral. Unsurprisingly, they said no. I was in a lot of pain, frustrated, and feeling hopeless, until God sent me an angel. Someone told me about Dr. Nairzi and his walk-in urgent care orthopedic clinic in Reno (United Pain Urgent Care). I drove there, arriving at 5 PM. Within just over an hour, I was evaluated and treated with facet joint injections at C2-C3. For the first time in years, I was pain-free. I don't know yet if this will be a permanent fix, but the fact that I could walk in and be treated the same day with no referral was absolutely life changing. I now have a follow up appointment at his main clinic to explore longer term treatment options in case the injections wear off. This is how healthcare should work. Not delayed by bureaucracy or driven by profit, but centered on compassion, urgency, and the patient. God Bless Dr. Nairzi and his incredible staff for their vision, care, and for being the kind of doctor we so desperately need more of in this broken system.

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.

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.
