I have been a patient at the Center of pain for quite some sometime and my experience there has always been pleasant never rude...I have alot of chronic pain in my body daily due to spinal stenosis,pvd,and other neuromuscular probShow morelems...this is the place to go!!!!! My nurse that works with me is Samara Rudar she works under Dr.Puranik and is very skilled, organized,fantastic in her work, very compassionate, kind, understanding, listens to you carefully with giving you the best answers to her acknowledgment if you have questions,does not rush, and is there to help you Center of Pain staff is wonderful never rude or ignorant to patients..I highly recommend anyone to come and give Center of Pain a chance and please ask for Samara Ruder you won't be sorry for the amazing help that awaits for you !!!!!
Samara Ruder,NP....is a good listener. She takes her time to hear what I have to say. And I appreciate that. She gives friendly professional care and advice. As did everyone else in the office. Except for having to wear the mask Show morethat makes it hard for me to breathe, I'm always comfortable. I also want to point out that after my trying 6 different doctors to fix my arm, THEY found me one and he's got a 5 star rating, so I'm very hopeful. My body is racked in pain, if I can get rid of some and be able to use my arm again, it would be life altering.
