Mine individually has been arbitrarily reduced 300% in the last ten years. If the FDA, DEA and CDC would get off the Providers backs the office might work more efficiently.

That surgery did not relieve any of my pain, in fact may have made it worse. I had been seeing pain management in Boston but had only been given trigger point injections which still weren't treating my problem area, just a symptom of it. Dr. Bernhardt was the first to really listen to me and the first to recommend a cervical medial nerve branch block. He was very informative, told me exactly what to expect and what the next steps after the procedure would be. I was immediately filled with hope after a seemingly hopeless year of not getting anywhere with my last pain management group. At the time of the procedure, Dr. Bernhardt was very attentive and soft-spoken. I look forward to following up with him and trust him for my future treatment plan. Definitely recommend seeing him if you're looking for answers for pain management.

"Dr" Levin is supposedly a "pain management specialist". I wound up having to see this "doctor"…read morebecause my prior pain management doctor retired. I had a pair of ruptured discs and Mr. Levin told me that all I had was a "case of mild disc degeneration". He was further angered with me for my disinterest in attending group therapy sessions. I simply didn't feel that talking about my blown-out discs to other people would do anything to fix them. Mr. Levin even went so far as to suggest that I might be faking my injury to get a couple pain pills a day. In the end, I wound up with a mouth full of broken teeth that State Comp is going to have to pay for because of his incompetence. Mr. Levin told me that he was no longer interested in treating me (thank God!) and my attorney recommended an outstanding doctor. Mr. Levin even had so much spite for me that he booted me without refilling my pain meds - so fortunately I was able to have my HMO fill them as they didn't want to see me have a stroke as my blood pressure was incredibly high. Within 14 months of getting a new doctor, I was in for my surgeries to have both of my ruptured discs replaced, and I'm finally doing much better pain-wise. All I can say is to avoid this doctor at all costs, as all they will do is "milk your health benefits" for all they can while providing you as little relief as possible. Please note that I have referred to this "doctor" as "Mr. Levin" - because I fail to see how such an incompetent individual could ever get a license to practice medicine.

I moved from Southern California and have been flying back and forth each month to see my regular…read morepain management dr. I finally got settled in a new apartment (had been staying with my sister) so I made an appointment with a new pain dr in town. It did not work out with that dr because it turned out his prescribing license had expired and the day I showed up he was missing and his staff had no clue where he was (another review for another day)...so I was forced to book a flight last minute to my usual dr. Because I had gone to another dr my usual dr would only agree to give me 2 weeks worth of medicine (he said he shouldn't have given me any, but understood because I was trying to find a dr where I moved). They gave me copies of my records and a referral to Dr. Levin's office (who I had called before I left for the trip to see what was required to come in). So when I got back to town I brought my records and referral to Dr. Levin's office. ..they said their policy was for the dr to review the records and see if their was 'anything he could offer' and then if so he would schedule an appointment. I figured no problem because I gave a crap load of issues, I have had physical therapy, spinal injections, acupressure, acupunture, massage therapy, chiropractic adjustments, water therapy, and medication. ..and I included MRIs, CT scans...and a stack of records so thick it cost $7 for me to get a copy made at 10 cents a page. So I go in, I give them all of that and tell them could they please hurry with getting back to me because my other dr only gave me two weeks worth of medicine. ...and I was very explicit about this and how important it was. This was Monday. Friday rolls around and I FINALLY get a phone call from their office (Btw I did call them and leave messages earlier in the week...heard nothing). I answer and the lady says she is sorry but the dr feels he can't 'offer me anything' because he doesn't prescribe pain medication at his office. I am thinking 'Are you kidding me?' He is a pain doctor, but doesn't prescribe medication. That doesn't even make sense. So he can't offer me physical therapy or spinal injections either...anything? I mean it's not like I only need meds...I also need other help. The point is he could have offered something or recommended a dr to help. They knew that at that point I only had one week of meds left...thanks to their quick review of my records. I am frankly pissed because I explained my medication situation on the phone to the receptionist when I called the very first time before I ever made my trip to my old dr and asked him for a referral. She could have informed me Dr. Levin did not prescribe medication at that time and I would have kept looking for another reputable doctor. I wouldn't have been left with my thumb up my ass without a dr looking like some addict about ready to suffer from narcotic withdrawals, also in extreme pain. Not to mention I do have a life...I can't just stop everything and keep going from Dr to dr, or check into the hospital if things get really bad. I have a son to take care of and responsibilities.

She reviews labs, X-rays, and my MRI to see, exactly, what is involved and what is causing my pain. She is very knowledgable about different modalities of treatment and presents them with understanding and precision. I, recently, went to her office, but on the way, google maps took to the wrong place. I had parked my car and after walking 3 blocks, I realized I was in the wrong place. I was 10 minutes away from my appointment time. Walking is painful for me, (part of the reason I see Dr Davids) so it took me awhile to get back to my car. By that time I was 2 minutes late. I called the office to let them I was close and that I would be there soon. They told me they would see me soon. Through 2 or 3 more unfortunate actions on my part, I found my self looking for the wrong office number and was instructed by a worked to go to the next building. To make a very long story no longer, I called the office at 20 minutes past my scheduled appointment, crying, and Sandra answered the phone. She had me describe to her where I was, asked what I was wearing and said she would come get me. Soon Sandra was walking me to the office. She reassured me that everything was ok and that Dr Davids would see me soon. That was 30 minutes after my appointment time. They had accommodated my lateness by seeing patients that were already there so I could be seen when I finally arrived. She brought me water, and reassured me everything was ok. When Dr Davids came in she was so kind and gentle and she told me it had worked out and that she was glad to see me. We had a wonderful conversation and she was very through in her assessment of my needs. I felt cared for and it was such a positive experience-one I will never forget. Being an RN that has worked in the medical field, for 35 years, I know a good quality healthcare provider whan I experience one. Dr Davids and her staff are the best!

Dr Shin and the Functional Restoration Program is not a miracle fix or cure. If you are looking…read morefor that, then all I can say is good luck! If you are dependent on medication and want to seek that route, then his philosophy, research and programs are not for you. Now, if you are tired of losing the life you had and want to get it back and can handle discomfort with physical effort, then this is something to look at in depth. Dont do this with a close mind, a dependency on medication or because insurance/attorney says you have to. Nothing comes easy in life...success no matter what takes effort/consistency! I have been seeing Dr Shin for 2 years and yes I was skeptical and frustrated. I had opted for Surgery after 19 months and the frustration of the pain. I can say with the PT, my flexibility had returned, but the pain had not subsided. I wanted my life back and did not want to rely on medication! I ended up with a fusion and cage inserted into my lumbar area. The recovery was not easy and took work, but as I said, I wanted my life back!! Due to the fires and threat of evacuation, i overexerted myself and brought alot of mental fear as well as physical discomfort back. Dr Shin said I recovered from my surgery and I had to move to show my mind and body I could recover. I am not a weak person and dont like to sit on my ass and pity life. I wanted my life back! I was enrolled in the Keystone Functional Restoration Program, which is 7 weeks. Yes, I was skeptical but You only get out of life, what you put into it. I set goals for myself and went with an open mind. I will admit at first, I was like this was bullshit, but stayed open. The staff was very open and friendly. The environment is outstanding! You will attend a class with other people who understand and can relate to your trials and tribulations. You grow, develop and motivate each other. The Staff supports and educate in many ways that keep you motivated. You will exercise and be sore at first and if this is not you or you are scared to work hard for an end result or are just negative, then do not attend. This is a blunt statement, if you want pity or make excuses, stay home and accept your life. The classroom classes are for the most part informative. The Health education and Physical Fitness/Training are outstanding! I can say Im not cured, however i never expected to attain that. I knew going into this, that at this point an injury never fully recovers. I wanted and could accept 80% of recovery so I could snowboard, jetski, mtn bike, jiu jitsu and just be somewhat active again. After 7 weeks and completion of the course, I have a better mindset, physical condition and have almost eliminated the daily need for ibuprofen. Dont get me wrong, I still have discomfort (dont use the word pain anymore) and get sore, but I am now becoming more active. Dr Shin gave me the green light to try snowboarding again and my mindset is right to do it. Its not a miracle cure, but if you miss your old life and mentally can accept a challenge, then if given the opportunity attend this class.

This place is a joke. I find it hard to believe that the "providers" are actually doctors, because…read morethe care quality is horrendous. Most of them have no idea what they're talking about. The wait times are ridiculous. Every time I go in, I have to wait 30+ minutes after my scheduled appointment time to be seen. This even happens during scheduled video appointments. There's no way they're running that far behind when my appointment only takes 5-10 minutes once I get back there. During my last appointment, the waiting room was completely empty, and I was still waiting. I had to say something to the office staff twice before I was finally called back. I would not recommend this place to a single soul. Avoid at all costs.

Another patient was experiencing this challenge, but the staff was able to easily assist. Given whatever reason you are at the PD&TC; it was my specific experience that the staff actually put in the "TLC"...perhaps they rename the center "PD&TLC". Anywho...who is responsible for my experience and who did I interact with here? Well, who didn't I interact with is more like it. I was lucky that they provided me with a large envelope with their names so I could recognize them specifically. First, Krystal...not only was she very helpful but I observed her with others as well. The nurses...the three amigas.... Shannon, Sunny and Kameko...all of them brought their own personalities to the party. I love my party hat! The warm blankets were a super comforting touch, and a little refreshing apple juice was a nice touch.... like a 5-star hotel! I can't forget Scott, the anesthesia guy! Explained the process and what would take place. It's really great since I'm guessing some have the fear of the unknown and not only Scott, but the rest of the staff I mentioned above, were very reassuring and explained everything. Can you imagine, not only do they have to perform their jobs well, but they also have the emotional aspects to manage. I bumped the IV in my hand and they fixed that straight away. That was reassuring as heck! Seriously, I can't thank you enough from my heart to all of yours. Oh yeah, hearing them interact with each other and just chit/chat was also comforting...could you imagine if there was dead silence...no bueno! For post-op, when being wheeled out to the car, I believe her name was Nancy, but I was still feeling the effects of the anesthesia...she was wonderful as well. If I have to come back for anything else, I would love to request the same team! If I'm in the area, I'd love to stop by to bring y'all some goodies!! 5-star care, and that's for pre and post op "CARE". The only recommendation I could make is to perhaps "update" the waiting room. I think the building is a bit older which comes with it's own inherent challenges. I didn't think it was a big deal, but if you compare that waiting room to other hospital/professional waiting rooms, perhaps subconsciously it would be reassuring to the first-time patient. Just trying to think of something that could be improved...lol.
