I been following Dr Henry throughout his years of practice. He is a very passionate and caring doctor. His main concern is to keep his patients Pain Free. I have been able to do daily life skills for myself by applying his care plan and taking my medication as prescribed. I ll give Dr Henry #5 ⭐️ for Awesome Care
Dr. Henry & his staff go out of their way to help me whenever I need it. They care & are trying to make you better. I would highly recommend Dr. Henry to anyone who is looking for a pain management doctor.
Dr is personable, listened, no physical exam, I was looking to continue a pain management regimen from another practice which had suddenly closed their doors in Salisbury just before Christmas. They got me an appointment quickly, 4 weeks. The Dr. cut the dose of two meds, completely stopped an opioid, continued two others. When the pharmacy could not locate the one medication of a certain dose, I called the office to leave messages and speak to someone, they kept putting me off, not returning calls, then she hung up the phone on me. I drove to the office Friday afternoon hoping I could speak to someone, but they had closed at 2 pm. I finally found a pharmacy that carried the one medication, I had to call four different ones. End result: I went four days with no opioids, so not only did my back pain come roaring back but I had withdrawal symptoms as well. He also was pushing needles and acupuncture.
Quick, but informative
Dr Henry took his time to make sure when I got shots in my back, not cause me pain. He explained as he went along. Day 2 and it's great.
