I have been seeing Kenneth Judkins for years. He's a fantastic provider. I have now followed him to…read more4 different clinics. He is a great listener and focuses on one's issues and not starring a laptop during the entire visit. He does several of my injections including botox and he's great ot doesn't feel like you're being assaulted while getting procedure. The office is clean and the staff at the Wilmont location are fantstic.

Sadly, the following applies seemingly to all pain clinics in Tucson (and AZ?). Firstly, I've been…read morea good, honest, humble, polite, genuine licensed pharmacist for 30 years and devout Christian. I almost never speak up or poorly, but must do so here. So I finally had to retire last Fall from retail pharmacy b/c all the long 12 hr days and OT took their toll on my back/body. During my last years I had to drop down to 20-25 hrs part time too, and reluctantly go to pain clinics. After much trial and error, 10 weeks of physical therapy and MRIs, X-rays, I was STABILIZED on a moderate opioid pain med (one that for decades a DR could write a RX for 6 months, but b/c some people abused it, was reclassified as stricter C2 med). For three years I was more than compliant and doing MUCH better on it, my quality of Life greatly improved. Then I moved back home to Tucson in 2026...long story short and some ten months later, I've seen several PCPs and referred three times to three pain clinics, and ALL stated the couldn't help me. WTH?? Of course then CAN, but WON'T. Why? Because prescribing medications can be a slight "inconvenience" sometimes--but MOST IMPORTANTLY--is not very "CONVENIENT" and "PROFITABLE". Truth. FACTS. Recall I've been a RPh for three decades, licensed in five states. What ever happened to PATIENT CARE? We ponder why our planet has gone to HELL, but we ALL NEED TO LOOK HUMBLY IN THE MIRROR, and DEEPLY and HONESTLY examine ourselves and motives. Sigh. My options now seem to be: 1. Mexico? 2. Visit shady city parks and ask around for pain relief 3. Keep taking risky 12-14 capsules (7-8 gms) of Kratom and 1-2 shots of tequila for my chronic back pain, or 4. "End my MISERY" on my own (you KNOW what that means; dead men feel NO PAIN). God help us INDEED...

I've had less than satisfying experiences at numerous pain clinics over the years as I suffer from…read morea chronic, non operable condition that keeps me in constant, unrelenting pain. I'm so glad I finally found the Pain Clinic of Southern Arizona as they have truly helped me to at least partially curb my pain without subjecting me to some of the intrusions other pain clinics impose. Due to the current political atmosphere surrounding pain medications I understand the necessity of frequent appointments and month to month prescriptions (as opposed to 90 day supplies). Like all pain clinics you are randomly selected to supply a urine specimen to prove you are taking your meds (unfortunately, as opposed to selling them). The staff and professionals are always friendly and appear to genuinely care about your condition. I've never had to wait very long beyond my scheduled appointment time before being called in to the exam room. Unlike some clinics they have never pulled any of the unethical practices other clinics do such as treating my pain for a few months and then saying its time to wean off pain medication altogether while offering no alternative to management. In fact, they have frequently offered to increase the dosage of my meds without my even asking. I cannot guarantee everyone will have the same positive experience here as each patient presents their unique set of circumstances and unfortunately there are many out there seeking these meds for both abuse and profit. As for myself, all I can say is that the Pain Center of Southern Arizona has definitely changed my life for the better.

Do not go here for pain management. I saw Dr. Martin. First he is a trash so called pain…read morespecialist. I'm a sickle cell patient and immediately just want to take me off my medication regimen that has been working for years. He ended up discharging me from the clinic after he did that I had a life threatening situation occur for being under treated so I went to the ER and they were puzzled why I was discharged from the practice with my long history of a genetic disorder. I will be filing litigation not only against this practice but so called Dr. Martin for malpractice. Please do not attend this please especially if you have sickle cell.

If you ever have the misfortune of being assigned to this doctor, ask for another provider. He is…read morea new doctor at Pain Institute of Southern Arizona and he has a complete lack of compassion. His medical assistant Savannah is also the worst possible person you will have the displeasure to speak with. She fabricates information that is not in your record but is convenient for her excuses for not following through on her duties. They both should be in some other profession, not administering to patients who are in severe pain. Their complete lack of empathy or any trace of compassion mars this usually friendly medical group. I hope the management realizes this and ends their relationship with these providers. This doctor's credentials don't compare to the other doctors on staff. It is laughable that he is even practicing medicine at their level. i had much better luck with the nurse practitioners on staff who have more knowledge.

I had the misfortune of seeing Dr. Elkins. This is my opinion. He is the classic example of a…read morerecent graduate that knows it all but is in fact a moron! I bailed many an engineer just like him out while I still worked as an Instrument electrician. He told me no one regardless of the cause of their pain or how long they have been on pain medicine should ever get more than 90 mme of morphine. I was referred to him by my neurologist and when he told me this I told him to absolutely not speak to my primary care doctor. His suggestion for me to continue on the dose I have been taking for over 10 years without incident was to see a psychiatrist about my addiction!!! Well he violated my confidence and spoke to my primary saying they have no business prescribing to me. I would sue him but he is a friend of my primary who I care about. Somewhere near 12 other doctors over 21 years don't agree with him. This media frenzy over narcotics has been a nightmare for anyone with a pain condition. The people getting hurt are the real pain patients not the druggies that have caused all the problems. I know this because a friends son is a junkie and has been on methadone for withdrawal for over 3 years. They are offering him increases in dose while they cut mine over 75%. My life is now a disaster with constant pain. However we are pushing back Look into don't Punish Pain. TRP
