When I asked for the back procedure he explained, he denied procedure because I was "too fat." I went in with pain back and left with no plan to relieve back pain as well as feeling embarrassed and disappointed. Yelp, what do you suggest?

    Found out son had a cyst in his head that was altering the overall structure as well as…read moredisplacement of a major artery. Went to see Dr. Reichert as a second opinion due to his ratings. After waiting an hour past our appointment time, he spent approximately 5 minutes (NOT kidding) with us. He came in the room, said "any headaches" (to which my son responded "yes"), with Dr. Reichert's response of "I'm not doing surgery because you don't need it." Didn't bring up his MRI results or discuss them, didn't talk about any of his structural abnormalities, didn't ask "how are you," didn't listen to any concerns, didn't ask if we had questions, kept tapping on the exam table - slouched and leaning back in the office chair - completely unprofessional, cocky, disrespectful, NO bedside manners, treated us like we didn't know anything (I myself have a medical degree as an NP), didn't even assess my son(!), opened the door, and walked us out of the room. I would NEVER recommend this provider to absolutely anyone. I have no idea who would rate him so highly, but I really hope that you look to other providers to have an understanding of what one would be like if they had their patient as the focus of attention, during an office visit that I am paying for, related to a pretty significant issue.

    Not what I expected. Exceeded my expectation…read more I had to complete and bring some paperwork (medical history, etc.) and a CD with two CT scans. I thought it better to submit them prior to the app't so the Dr. might have a chance to review BEFORE my visit. How could he go through all that and the scans during the app't, which I expected to be 15-20 minutes? The doctor saw me within 10-15 minutes of my appointment time and spent over 45 minutes speaking (and listening) to me, doing a brief physical exam, and then reviewing, in detail, the CT scans of my cervical and lumbar regions. He didn't review the scan in advance. He spent the time to review them with me. I was not there to proceed with any particular action or surgery. I was there to CONSULT and strategize whether to take action now (I'm 67), or wait some years, maybe 10 or whatever, to live with my ongoing condition/s (I've had a discectomy and fusion already) and take action at some later date. Dr. King understood all that, and considering the complete Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) I have, he recommended we take a wait and see approach on the surgery. He did refer me to Dr. Doniparthi in the Pain Management clinic to again CONSULT the possibility of an injection or trigger point therapy. (I have seen her more than once before and had injections before). I did follow up with her the very next day and her assessment was basically the same - no assurance that any injection would help... might help, might not. So... wait and see as long as I could continue to function as is. I was very pleased that I was listened to, that a conservative approach was considered and taken, and will return to Dr. King, if and when, I deteriorate to needing some intervention.

    If you enjoy being in SEVERE PAIN, this is the place for you…read more I came in with months of worsening spine pain (cervical through sacrum), plus a significant fall in March that left my lower back, sacrum, and hip in constant spasm. Things escalated to the point of incontinence, which should probably have been a clue that this is not a minor issue. During imaging, I was asked to position myself in a way that triggered one of the worst spasms I've ever experienced. I reacted involuntarily in pain and began crying. I was already in significant physical pain, and in that moment, I became emotionally overwhelmed. Without missing a beat, one of the x-ray techs in the room said, "that's how we know you're not faking it." I must have missed the marketing for this place, but here is my hot take: at ORTHOILLINOIS Spine Center in Rockford, we don't take your word for it--we make you prove it. Seriously, if your goal is compassionate care, or even basic awareness that pain responses don't need validation through suffering, you may want to look elsewhere. Empathy is NOT part of the intake process here. I have yet to be seen by the physician in charge--only the nurse practitioner (Kelsey). At this point, I'm less concerned with bedside manner (as I'm confident, it'll never get better) and more concerned that severe neurological and spinal symptoms are being treated like a checkbox exercise. No real diagnosis, just a steady stream of "come back in a few weeks" so they can run your insurance again and get paid. I don't know where they all went to medical school (I should look it up and send them this), but their alma maters should be embarrassed--and someone should remind them what the Hippocratic Oath is supposed to mean. Perhaps insurance companies should also take a closer look at where their payments are going. If your primary care physician sends you here, BEG THEM TO RECONSIDER.

    It's been about a year since I had an ACDF on my neck, I came out of surgery with worse pain than…read morebefore, I was told by the Doctor that I couldn't be in more pain, but here I am a year later and the pain is horrible, went to the pain management Dr there, he loaded me up with norcos and Lyrica, went back and he said come back in a month for an injection, instead of a month they scheduled me for 6 months, called several times for refills on my pain meds, left several messages and they never returned my calls, this is the service you get from The Spinal Clinic in Rockford, Illinois and no I wasn't abusing my meds !
