UPDATE: Since I posted my review, every concern I had was rectified and then some. I cannot stress…read moreenough how much I respect this doctor. He truly does listen, and takes your imput as well as your treatment seriously. He needs to be on the cover of a magazine or something, because I was crying and vomiting from pain almost daily, hardly sleeping, and utterly out of hope. Such extreme pain makes you feel like you're going to lose your mind. Dr. Ky has changed everything for me (Tracy, the specialist therapist is a godsend as well), and I can say with full and complete confidence that this is beyond five star treatment. ESPECIALLY in America - it took me years to find someone like him and Tracy. They're on top of all the latest studies, and are happy to educate you whenever you ask. It's wonderful. This guy is a rising star, and now the staff is truly comprised of compassionate, angelic beings. Seriously, they are the nicest nurses ever. I think the beginning phase there just had a few post-opening hiccups. If you come in for a consultation, you will see why I instantly loved these people and wanted them to succeed so desperately. Pain management deals with individuals who are extremely stretched thin, worn out, and we don't rest well and therefore can feel quite sensitive. Being stressed about potentially not having your medication/being dropped as a patient is a constant fear a majority of us have, so it's seriously terrifying to assert yourself when asking for updates or whatever. That is not something you should worry about here, so long as you are cordial, obviouslt. It's so great and exciting that there's a solid team now who handle interactions in a way that makes pain management, well...painless. (Yes I'll see myself out) Keep up the good work, everyone!!! We need you out here!

The staff was so helpful and polite. The doctor actually looked me over ran some manual tests and now I am going to get treated the proper way. What a great place. A bit off the open track of places and I live in Imperial Beach, but the drive is so worth it. I have told other people if you want a doctor who does care go here, and you wont be disappointed. 5 BIG STARS!! Thank you. James Marshall

I recommend him for any pain issue. He is a kind and compassionate doctor. Thank you doctor Goodman.

I've been a patient for almost 10 yrs! Dr Chesler has a nice rapport with my husband! He helped…read moreus a lot when my husband was laid off from his job. The office WAS very professional & the staff courteous. However, for over a year, it has been very challenging! The girls in the office are wonderful w/1 exception! Jasmine has been extremely rude & hateful toward me! Sadly, she's the 1 person who checks the patients in. This person/position represents the office, greets patients & assigns patient placement! I'm usually about 30 min early but always the last to be seen. I'm usually seen an hour or so after my appt time. Oddly, it was never that way for 9 years! I don't expect to be seen early, I do expect to seen within a half hour! To be seen last every visit this year, regardless of the appt time, couldn't be a coincidence! I recently had a problem with the pharmacy because my prior authorization wasn't faxed over till several calls with Jasmine! I finally returned to Dr Chesler to pick it up then I was told it was sent! A useless hr! I've issued a complaint to the Dr & the office manager Jean/wife. Nov 26th I spoke to the person directly! Jasmine, w/her co-worker listening at the door, openly answered *I have no problem w/you*, then stated *I don't talk to you* said it all. She's a greeter/receptionist so that's the point exactly! Oct 24, 2019 the office manager was in the Escondido/San Marcos location & it happens that Jasmine spoke to me. I had to ask another employee her name. We're at our best when the head boss is the office! Loyalty should count for something. In 10 yrs, this situation is my ONLY complaint! I asked to be checked in by anyone else but her behavior is condoned! I see in a note below that someone else has complained specifically about Jasmine!

The…read moregood things is that even though was my first time there the front desk person was the same that works at the Oceanside office and I had a smooth transaction with the paperwork I needed to fill and was very diligent and nice. The patient was attended on time and next scheduled visits informed and printed. The cons: difficult office to locate, the numbering do not make much sense in that building. It looks like a repainted motel converted into medical offices. I didn't see an elevator and this is an center that treats people in heavy pain. The waiting room/lobby is too small and if there are many people don't fit and outside there is no place to sit.

This place had sub, sub par customer service…read more First of all, the clinic is upstairs with no elevator. Which is completely unacceptable for a pain management clinc. (There is a ramp but it's before the office so the GPS takes you past the parking lot so you don'tsee the ramp if you didn'tknow it was there.) Me and my husband traveled out of town to take his grandma to this appointment. There was absolutely no consideration that in this state of pain his grandma can not drive and the amount of hassle involved if this appointment has to be rescheduled. I would have appreciated some more compassion and understanding that people in severe pain might have a hard time filling out the medical information forms. Despite being on-time to the appointment, the receptionist said we were supposed to arrive 1/2th hour before time to fill out the paperwork. The online patient portal kept crashing and we had to resubmit the phone number for verification like 8 times. They also did not give an option to fill out the forms on paper despite the numerous technial difficulties. We were told that we had to speed run filling out the forms in order to have her still be seen. This made for an incredibly stressful situation for all involved.

Am I still going to Dr. Jeff? You betcha. I think I'm getting an addiction to feeling so good…read more During the ongoing treatments, Dr. Jeff gives you various exercises to practice at home, and while I am not very compliant in practicing them regularly, they really help when I do them. The atmosphere in his office is so upbeat and positive, it makes you feel better just to go there. But of course the greatest benefits are from his treatments, with his magical fingers that just get into the places that ache and heal them. Since going to Dr. Jeff I can feel a difference during my daily activities: When I'm driving, it's much easier to turn around and look out the window when I'm changing lanes, my neck feels so much looser. My lower back pain has gotten much better, I feel more energy and, really, my vision seems to have improved. I look forward to the continuing ongoing changes, 'cause I'll be back!

BEWARE If you are considering Dr. Listiak for neuropathy…read moretreatment here are a few things to consider: He has a one size fits all program for everyone who walks in the door. The plan consists of different phases which costs of about $5,000.00. You are encouraged to pay this amount up front. If not then you must contract for installments and provide a copy of a check from your checking account, The different phases consist of some lab work, supplements, diet and lifestyle, a couple of neuropathy at home treatment devices and chiropractic treatments and exercises. The problem is that none of the tests or examinations may reveal the cause of your neuropathy, nor may any of the treatments work at all on your specific type of neuropathy. Even if you have some abnormal labs Dr. Listiak is unable to tell for sure if that is causing your neuropathy. In my case I received no benefit whatsoever from the treatment, and no insight in to the cause of my condition from the labs or examination. I believe this practioner takes a rather greedy and dishonest approach to how he sells his service. i would recommend going to a good neurologist who specializes in neuropathy for testing before paying $5,000.00 to someone with no neurology training and no idea of the chances for success.
