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.

With the first nerve block he hit the correct area with his needle! I called it the "money shot", and knew there was hope for a better outcome than my previous ablations. 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. They both treated me with such tender care. My neck is doing REALLY well. Dr. Jacob Blake is 100% worth the wait.

Dr. Blake and His Staff are the absolute worst Dr. to visit. Since I had to drive to Reno for my…read moreappointment I noticed there were several other Drs. at this office. Pick your Dr. wisely. 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.

I was very pleased with the process and the helpfulness of the office team from start to finish in my first visit.

9 AM on a Tuesday morning, morning, I called my primary care physician of Carson Medical Group…read more with symptoms of a stiff neck, fever over 100, nausea, chills, fatigue, and vomiting. I was told they had no appointments, but they'd leave a message for my doctor, who would get back to me. Fast forward to 2 PM. I get a call from my primary care physicians office telling me I should go to an emergency room because they believe I have meningitis‼ In a panic, I head to the ER on McCarren of Northern Nevada Medical. Thankfully, the competent staff, based on the questions I answered and an examination, diagnosed me with a viral infection. No meningitis! They dosed me with a Tylenol-Advil combination and a lidocaine patch, then sent me home with prescriptions for nausea and extra lidocaine patches. I felt guilty for taking up the time of staff and resources for an issue that could've been handled in a timely manner in my primary care physician's office, had that office not been overbooked. And I won't even go into the five hours it took from my original phone call and message of my concerns, to the phone call I received advising me to go to an ER. This all too frequent "adventure"points to the sad state of medical care in this country, with emergency rooms becoming your primary care physician.

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.

Last July 2025 I fell down my stairs and broke my left hip, I had to go to the emergency room and a doctor over at Swift Institute was on the Emergency side of it, and replaced my hip with a few screws. Well, the screws were coming out as I walked, so I saw Dr. Winkle back at great basin, and he said you're gonna have to have your hip totally replaced, as the screws are poking out.! I ended up in the hospital a few days after surgery with a stomach problem, and he actually came by to see me, and it had nothing to do with my hip, he just wanted to make sure I was OK! Absolutely incredible Dr, I highly recommend him and any doctor at Great Basin Orthopedics! The best! I needed a nausea medicine, and unbeknownst to Dr. Winkle the medicine he gave me for nausea also helped the stomach problem I was having so I could eat again, no other doctor has ever prescribed that medicine for me and I get these stomach issues a lot, we were really impressed!
