Dr. Lopez has been amazing in treating my right knee that has arthritis. He performed a nerve ablation on my right knee today. This knee has arthritis and about 4 hours my knee was feeling so much better. All of the nerve ablatioShow morens I have had done on my knee and lower back has worked very well and has kept me from needing surgery. The nerve ablations can also be tweaked I believe after 3 months if it doesn’t completely work. Dr Lopez is extremely kind, compassionate, and truly cares about his patients’ well-being. I highly recommend Dr. Lopez to anyone dealing with chronic knee pain or in my case lower back pain. I also have been seen by Amanda Lopez who is a PA. She too is very kind and caring. She has always answered all my questions and offered the best solutions for me. Dr Lopez’s staff in northeast is also very kind and friendly. They treat their patients with such care. I highly recommend this location.

My last appointment with Dr. Lopez was for a spinal epidural. This was the second injection into my spine. As with the first, all went well. Dr. Lopez nailed it; there were no issues, and the injection worked as he said it would. Show moreI have had epidurals with another provider, and comparing my earlier pain management doc with Dr. Lopez, Dr. Lopez's procedure was totally superior. About his support staff - all were friendly, efficient, and knew their stuff. I would recommend Dr. Lopez to anyone needing pain management support.

I had a great experience with this pain management doctor. They took the time to listen to my concerns, explained everything clearly, and made me feel comfortable throughout my visit. I never felt rushed, and they genuinely cared about helping me manage my pain. The staff was kind and professional, and the entire office made the experience a positive one.
