Pain Management Associates

This place seems to be more about money than wanting to help someone. They(or at least one DR anyway) never has time to talk to you, always in a hurry and says we are busy and don't have time to talk and says that will have to wait until later...Went in for an injection with one DR and found out it was with the one that is always in a hurry. She comes in with a needle and says ok lets do this injection come on lets do it...no way of seeing where this needle is going. no xray...no nothing...I refused the shot and she stormed out of the room... I have saw her three times and have seen her for a total of 5 minutes in three trips. They are continuing to have me come back more and more with no results. I cant see someone putting a needle in my back with a chance to puncture a lung or heart without them being able to see where they are going with the needle. When you have an attorney and someone is paying 100% of the bills, They don't want to help you but instead keep you coming back.

I went to the Greenville office and if you are a person who suffers from chronic pain DO NOT GO. I was misdiagnosed, mismanaged for pain treatment,and finally made to feel like my pain was all in my head. I came prepared with documentation my first visit, they supposedly made copies for records,my second visit it was nonexistent. They claimed to get records from previous PM office, and stated they showed nothing. I had 2 procedures epidural injection and.occipital block from 2015.I personally went and got my records to show about 10 procedures from last 5 years. Got all 3 previous MRI taken every 2 years for cervical. I told them my neck was continuously in pain with nerve pain down arm and numbness in fingers and told after last MRI my neck was cured. MRI showed pinch nerve and I ended up getting cervical fusion not a month later after misdiagnosed with a torn rotator cuff. I had to request surgeon referral.while this severe pain continued I was given opiate antagonist.

they are very uncaring and arrogant .they treat you like a dope fiend .i only wish i could give them 0 stars. stay away if you want to be treated like a human being .

I would tell my friend that they are with you every step of the way. I've never had a long wait time but once when I waited an hour and a half. The only bad thing is they they are kind of hard to get a hold of if you need them. All in all they're professional and understanding.

Finally!! I place that respects and treats a chronic pain patient like a person. The wait was long, but it was well worth it compared to what I have been dealing with for years. I highly recommend.
