    I had a great experience with Dr. Johnston. he was - though clearly a busy man - attentive,…read morelistened to my concerns, and validated my continued abdominal pain from a 2011 abdominal injury that was never properly addressed. He and his office staff were courteous and competent. Why the 3 star rating then? The follow up with the P.A. Jane Sonnenburg was extremely frustrating. When I attempted to explain how circumstances had changed with my condition, as I'd just been diagnosed with a hiatal hernia that possibly occurred during a PT session overlapping the diagnostic trigger-point injections - and how this event most certainly nullified any diagnostic data Dr. Johnston was attempting to obtain - she was short, interruptive, and borderline rude. It left me feeling unheard and with more frustration that when I walked in. Ms. Sonnenburg would not let me finish one complete thought without interrupting me and seeming to feel as if her thought and words were more important than mine.

    I would absolutely rate 0 stars if I could. My previous doctor was Carrie Anderson, I loved her…read more Things went to crap though when they assigned me Jane Sonnenburg. My first appointment with her I decided I didn't like her. She was very rude, not approachable, snarky, and all together rude. By my second appointment I decided I wasn't going back. She called me fat, straight to my face for drinking a freshly squeezed OJ for breakfast. No sugar added fresh juice. She constantly judged me. My first appt with her she messed with my meds. Without so much as talking to me first. The kicker though is she denied my request for an MRI after my xray didn't show much other than arthritis. Saying that it was good enough to keep me on my opiates. After that I purposefully skipped my last appointment with her and my primary took over. And guess what, I got that MRI! Because of her, serious results (Which I won't share for private reasons) went undiagnosed for so long. Now I have serious pain and can barely move. Worst "Doctor" (Even though her official title is physicians associate) ever. I'm in the process of submitting a complaint and considering legal action. She's not even a specialist for pain like they make you believe. This is coming from the Oregon medical board license database. Image posted below. AVOID AT ALL COSTS

    I set an appointment with Dr Greenberg and before coming in i explicitly asked if they treated the…read more2 types of conditions i have and did medication management and they said yes. When he finally came in, the first thing he said to me was "why are you here, what can i help you with?" - I FILLED OUT 20 PAGES OF PAPERWORK. YOU SHOULD ALREADY KNOW WHY I'M HERE. Second thing he said was "I don't know why you're here, I don't really treat what you have." The staff obviously booked me knowing full-well that they weren't actually going to do anything to help me, just so they could get paid for a visit. And of course there will be no consequences for them, there never are. When i spoke with them they said they were "different than other pain clinics" because they offer prolotherapy and stem cell therapy. They're not. This is just one more self-important doctor who treats you like you're a drug addict for asking for pain medication despite having well-documented pain causing conditions. I can't get any help anywhere for pain, despite trying all kinds of alternative methods because doctors are so afraid to prescribe pain medication because of the selfish fools who abuse them. Never met a single doctor in my life who actually trusts their patients to make wise decisions. I left the place in tears.

    March 2018! I went to this person that I hesitate to even call a doctor for almost 2yrs, but after…read more18 months of Physical & Mental HELL...I am Free of his Mental Head Games..His 1st concern on my 1st visit, would I write a review for him..Sure, I really believed on that 1st visit that he had All my Records..I would learn very soon that he did not have them..And dare I ask him how he can properly care for me, workout my records.I felt like he Retaliated against me, for questioning his care, of me! His bedside manners leave a lot to be desired..I felt he was disconnected from me during our visits..Quite frankly this person caused me so much Physical & Mental Distress it may take awhile for me to feel like myself again..I am Blessed to have the Full Support of Amazing Care Providers now..Who took Extra time to Explain the Extent of my Injury & Show me my Injury in 3D..But Dr. Greenberg(god I hate calling him a doctor) said, Nothing Was Wrong With Me..So I Terminated his service..The only Decent thing about this place, are his 2 nurses..Please if u r new to this person, do not write a review till u have been there for at least a yr..it's unfair to good people in pain..u to will see, but there is Help out there..this person is a Heartbeat away from a Lawsuit..You just can't Intentionally HURT Others & Keep Getting Away with it..I wrote my 1st review last year 2018.. Update! 4/2019 This person who calls himself a doctor is still Dangerous! I write this to Save Others!!! Honest & Factual.. I have spent the last 14 months in the care of Amazing Doctors..Who have been trying to help, with the damage Greenberg caused me.. I walked into Greenberg's with an Injury to my 3 lower disc, tail-bone & left leg. I had nerve pain in my left leg, occ at night! But I Could Walk! I had a Devastating Fall in 98!! Before I continue let me say that not all injured people Abuse Their Meds, and that many Controversial Meds do Help with certain Injuries and are needed! Any Decent Pain Management Doctor knows this! Along with Other Treatments, Injections, Pt, ect... Greenberg Injured me from Dec 2018-Feb. 2019.. By the time I reached a Compassionate doctor, I could not walk with out help, sit, barely stand, and was in a laying position from Dec 19, 2018 to March 2019! He Crippled Me Playing God! It is Very Well Known In The Community what this person is doing!! I now am able to sit very short term, walk very short distances(I had been able to walk my dog prior, no more) I can Stand, against a wall for awhile, its difficult! I have had to have 7 Injections, all but the last one, really helped me..These Injections are a Direct result of Greenberg harming me!!! I had no issues with my Right Leg prior to seeing Greenberg, I have Serious Issues now!! It Originally took me till 2003 to walk...5 yrs!!! Greenberg he put me right back where I was, following the Injury in 98!! I don't know if I will ever be, where I was, physically in 2015, prior to Greenberg's cruel painful debilitating treatment, or Lack There Of!! It took my doctor's (both retired in 2015) 17 yrs to get me in pretty good condition, for my injury!! He Destroyed Their Work on Me!! He Took Me Back 20yr's!! I am Worse now!! And He is Getting Away With Doing This To Others.. I've heard their Stories.. I've met them...Other Doctors have Met Them too.. He Will Try To Retaliate for my Review..Or get them removed, he does this with the Reviews written on his Office Site, by Claiming the person who wrote them, were not his patient! I Was! I Have The Support of Good Friends, Good Doctors Who Are Aware Of Him!! So Please Know That There Is QUALITY Care GP, Drs & Ortho care in Ashland! Who can refer you to Quality Pain Management in Medford Or..Don't Think Like I Did, that He's The Only Doctor Around.. (this is long, but it may save a life) PLEASE NOTE!!!! At the bottom of the page with Reviews for Greenberg, is a link that says, "4 other reviews that are not currently recommended' Click on it, I wish I had seen these Reviews!!!! Years Ago!!! Its in faded writing?? Many Blessing to Those Who Suffer In Silence like I Did!!!
